yes i have used affinity to fix some old pictures that had noise, well some people like to pay monthly fees others simply buy the app, yes i agreed with your comment about video cards but there is one big problem, it doesn’t matter how powerful a card is, if it can’t be use or is not supported , like the problem with mojave, really hope 10.15 brings support back to nvidiaThere is some good alternatives to Adobe's Photoshop and Lightroom applications. Affinity is actually preferred by many over Photoshop.
It looks as if Adobe is keen to not show users the low priced option unless they know how to search for it. Adobe is happy to get more users hooked on using Adobe Cloud, which competitors are not really offering - for some users this may be a genuine benefit.
Nvidia became used to the inflated mining craze peak pricing for consumer grade hardware and has priced RTX accordingly. The RTX 2080 Ti is a performance beast and a huge improvement over the GTX 1080 Ti. But at all levels the new cards do provide a performance boost, but also a large price increase. Are these cards worth box price - sales numbers suggest that consumers are not so positive.
I only hope that AMD can provide some good competition at key price points later this year - it might help to keep the creeping prices from Intel and Nvidia in some sort of balance. New consumer graphics cards from intel would also be a positive move.
i’m not taking any credit away from AMD but i simply prefer nvidia even if they cost more
