Overpriced, absolutely, but the 4080 and 4090 absolutely blow previous gens out of the water. Everything else does seem to fall on the side of incremental improvements, but nothing big
but the 4080 and 4090 absolutely blow previous gens out of the water
Just the 4090, the 4080 is not is not that big a jump compared to the 3090Ti. Considering the 4080 trades blows with the 7900xtx, can’t say that it blows previous gen out of the water
The 4090 isn’t that much better than the 4080, and the 4080 is much more energy efficient. I guess it all depends on what you consider “blowing previous gens out of the water” but that’s sort of marketing non-sense.
If you have a 3090Ti you aren’t going to be missing out anything on current gen games, and current gen developers aren’t in a hurry to develop exclusively for hardware most of their potential consumers aren’t going to be running on. So basically, it’s just “blowing previous gens out of the water” on flair at the moment.

Barring major changes in how things are done like rasterization to raytracing, the top end of the GPU market has always been about flair, as far as gaming goes, no?
Unfortunately, 4090 is the cheap man’s alternative for AI hardware, and with the China ban, it’s going to continue to be overpriced for the foreseeable future, well past the blockchain mining craze.
