Generally, each GPU generation knocks the previous rankings down one grade. So the 5700XT would then become similar to a 6600XT or even just 6600, complete with a drop in price down to the relative performance level.

The reason why this pricedrop didn't happen last time(s) is because AMD didn't compete in the high-end market at the time, having concentrated all their ressources into the Zen architecture, and as a result NVidia could increase the prices with impunity. But now with first leaks that Big Navi would be about 40-50% faster than a 2080Ti, NVidia can't keep their prices so high, or the customers would all flock over to AMD.

I feel Nvidia did pull an intel with the RTX 2000 series with their pricing and effort. It could've been much more powerful at a lower price if they really wanted to so I really hope pricing is competitive this time around. 

From what I've heard is that GDDR6 was in very high demand but also very low supply, which raised the priced up a lot in 2019 and kept the prices for graphics cards high. I'm sure this problem is (mostly) gone next GPU gen, and prices can thus easily go lower this time around.
