Do you considerna 4050 and 4090 the same hardware like the ps4/switch?  It isn't a trap, but genuine curiosity.  They have the same rendering technology, only difference is raw power.  I don't consider them remotely the same.  

I honestly don't know much about PC hardware, it's not my area.

I never said PS4 and Switch were the same, there's obviously a substantial difference in power, I just don't see the Switch as belonging in the same class as the PS3 when its got some pretty significant advantages over 7th gen hardware.

Fair enough.  I just think people are used to view hardware via timelines of release.  I don't think that is applicable anymore.  Older GPUs can literally smoke newer ones.  

I learned this the hard way.  I knew the ps5 was a 2070s ish gpu.  When I got into PC I grabbed a laptop with a 3050, thinking the 3050 had newer chips....  yeah the 2070S smokes the 3050 and it isn't close.  The 3050 is a dog at gaming.
