2023 was the year that GPUs stood still::A new GPU generation did very little to change the speed you get for your money.

The thing is its working so damn well. 4090s are selling in huge numbers.

To be honest I think it's just AI developers gobbling them all up because Nvidia's dedicated workload and professional GPUs are always sold out. Plus spending 1400$ on games is ridiculous, and that's coming from somebody with a ryzen 7800x3d and a 7900xtx. I regret it so much, such a waste of money.

Having a 7900XTX and a 5800X...I don't really get the wate of money part. I can throw everything at it and it runs exceptionally well with 5120x1440 resolution. Most, if not all,is running well inside Freesync 2 range...I couldn't be any happier and since I'm getting old now, I'd compare it to the Athlon 64 X2 times with a Radeon 850 XT...between that and now, I never had a system that did so well with the games of it's time.

Edit: Oh you mean spending 1400 on games...well, yeah, games are ridiculously priced...considering you don't really own a copy either...
