Picking the best GPU of 2025 has been the biggest challenge of my near 20-year PC gaming tech testing career. Now my brain hurts
I love graphics cards. They're absolutely my favourite PC component. That's not a hot take; I'm a simple man and thing-makes-pretty-pictures-flow-faster-in-front-of-eyes is an easy thing to become obsessed with. And I've had a long time to get nerdy with them, too, having built my first PC in the early '90s and been professionally testing PC gaming hardware since 2005.
This generation has been a bloody nightmare.
But this year... well, this year our relationship has hit a bit of a rocky patch.
