I think I am at a point of caring less and less about hardware news. Like I am obviously going to post them but instead of being from the perspective of "Oh boy, I can't wait to buy it" to "Thank fuck I don't have to think about buying it" lol
Back in the day, 80 class always felt like the flagship. You started with the "80" as the top dog and then "80 Ti" the year later for around the same price if you wanted "Titan tier" performance. Yea there were Titans and all that but those felt like the rich people toys since 80 class never felt very compromised. These days it feels like the 80 class is there just to keep competitive with Radeon while 90 class shows off the true capabilities and the generational uplift we want to see... For the kidney prices we don't want to spend. If the rumours end up being legit, the gulf between 5080 and 5090 is a generational leap in itself.
Feels like a situation where instead of upgrading every gen or every 2 gens, you buy the top dog and chill for 6-8 years.
