But cards come out every single year, be it a brand new series or a refresh, they come every year and they beat the price to performance even if its only slightly in case of a refresh like the super was. as for waiting for ps5 games you always have more coming yearly but you dont get yearly relacements, or notiaceble pricedrops. so in one year you could say your glad you waited for a new card, cuz you got better and lower price, but in one year you still get the same ps5 but you had to wait on some games. if you wait 3 years you could have a twice better card, but the same ps5 probably $100 cheaper but you have had missed a bunch of great games that even if they came to pc, by then they be outdated and you probably wont want to play them anymore cuz there are much better games now. 

So someone like him who is planing on getting both, will most likely benefit from getting the one wich depreciates in value slower.

Well, I don't know if you'd be able to get double the performance of a 3080 in three years or not. @Pemalite How does 2015's 980 Ti launching at $695 compare to 2018's 2080 at around $700? Is the 2080 double the performance of the 980 Ti?

 Back to @eva01beserk ...

Games don't become outdated within three years. Ten? Perhaps. But tons of games out there have aged wonderfully.

Nvedia are claiming a 2x performance on a 2 year old card for the same price with the 3080. I dont belive it, and digital foundry stated that to not be the case and more like 80%, but its still a 2 year old card. next year the ti's will probably be far above it. Probably higher prices, so its gona be harder to compare to a card with the exact same cost. but we will see. 

Not all games, but a lot of them do. think of any call of duty, fifa, maden, forza. Sony's games dont tend to be outdated in 3 years, but that dosent mean that in 3 years another game wont be released by sony that beats that 3 year old game in every way and your more inclined to play that one over the old one.
