Hello, I initially intended to purchase a premium gaming setup in July, but I discovered unexpected price hikes for GPUs. As long as those costs stay high, I won’t buy anything, so I decided to assemble a very budget-friendly rig just for e-sports. My current build includes an RX 560 GPU and a Pentium G4560 CPU. Can this configuration handle Rust at medium settings with 50+ frames per second?

The basic needs are any card released in 2004 or later with a dx9 chip, which should work. Probably not consistently 50+, but enough for most cases.

I believe achieving around 50 frames per second is feasible. However, are top-tier GPUs currently offering poor value?

It relies on the specific purchase the OP had in mind. I believe GTX 1070s are popular for mining, while most cards with GDDR5X remain safe.

I planned to purchase the 1080 model, but its price has risen by 140 euros. Therefore, I won’t buy it any time soon.

Here are some positive updates, right? Anyone have an idea when the prices might return to a stable level?

Likely when the mining frenzy fades away

It seems the U.S. market price is close to expectations for 1080 chips. I'm not sure what's causing the recent increase. GDDR5X tends to lag behind GDDR5 in mining tasks due to higher latency compared to bandwidth, and it also has lower power efficiency.
