No man look at the wording in the poll.The poll wasn't "interested", it was "sway your purchase right now".
Am i interested in RT? Heck yes.
Will it sway my decision on a card? Maybe, but unlikely. If I am buying a card less than the 3080 then it's a solid "hell no!", Because the RT perf isn't even there to make it worthwhile even in the games that use it.
"if you were able to buy a GPU right now, which of the things might be most important to you? "
so 23% (not 30%) of those buying will buy a GPU with higher RT performance (irrespective of raster performance)
I am further adding an assumption that this is conditional on price ranges being constant.
Yes, we can argue that the poll is badly worded or badly designed... but for now lets assume that its not true.
I would be looking at buying probabilities and then check how the intersections pan out.
The thing is that a review cannot be customised for each consumer, its standard issue for the masses
That will need an entirely new set of data.. you are introducing new partitionsNope, that's where you are wrong. 23% of gamers who game AND build PCs (I mean they are watching a hardware channel) care about RT.
What is the percentage of gamers who build their own systems? Tiny. What is the percentage of people who game AND build their own PCs AND can afford a GPU that lets them turn RT on? Almost non-existent.
So to summarize, RT is **** right now, so very few people base their purchasing decisions on it.
