The GeForce x60 Evolution: Gaming for the Masses

In the early days of GeForce, NVIDIA's naming was more numerical than philosophical. The GTX 260 in NVIDIA's product stack was high-end, sitting right below the flagship, basically what RTX 5080 is today. This changed in 2010 with the GeForce GTX 460, which was the first card to truly establish what we now think of as "x60": a balanced card, at not-too-high pricing, built with a mainstream GPU that works well for the everyday gamer. Over time, the series has evolved to reflect the industry's shifting priorities. Initially an affordable, straightforward option, it has become a more complex choice influenced by rising prices and the introduction of new GPU technologies like ray tracing, DLSS and frame generation. Let's look at the history of these card, their features, their performance, and which generation is the best. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/ge...
