Well, you are going from AMD to Nvidia, so there is a significant upgrade just in that. When I did my switch, I swore never to go back to AMD Gpu's. But also going to a much more modern card than an almost 8 year old one would make anyone's rig feel better. Glad you have a good card now!
The thing is its working so damn well. 4090s are selling in huge numbers.

I upgraded from a 3080 to a 4090.
My son needed an upgrade and it was easier to justify giving him the 3080 and chalking up the difference as his Christmas gift last year than to buy a GPU for him outright.
I just upgraded from a 970GTX to a 2060S I bought on AliExpress. Bargain.
Aren't you worried about it bursting into flames?
