Performance gain: CompareYourGPU estimated index, native resolution, no upscaling.
VRAM, board power and features: manufacturer specifications.
Prices: launch MSRP. CompareYourGPU holds no verified street price for these cards, so the cost per percentage point is a reference figure rather than what you would pay today.
The cost of the upgrade is the price of the new card. CompareYourGPU does not model what your current card might sell for.
