There are performance issues on old hardware, not budget hardware.

Anyway I'm going to cut them some slack. Like you said, it's only their second generation and we badly need competition in this space, especially at the low end. It's good to have options.

Competition is a must in the gpu market atm and the upgrade market is a fast the growing market as the market leader continues to price out consumers.

That said, this intel silicon degradation in quality cannot be ignored across CPUs and GPUs. It's now consistently lowering in quality.
