$2000 (or more) for a GPU is a bit ridiculous, you're getting nowhere near the equivalent added boost in graphics for what you're paying. It's basically spend 2x-3x more to get a better frame rate and a few moderate effects tacked on. 

I predict PC GPU sales (overall and especially of the newer card lines) will continue to decline as they have because the value proposition simply is not there for most regular consumers. Developers won't optimize properly for those higher cards as they're already burnt out just making the PS5/XBox versions on time as is. 

Nvidia will charge more because they effectively have lesser competition from AMD and Nvidia itself doesn't care as much about gaming when 91% of their revenue comes from elsewhere.

So probably not a great looking future for consumers on that front. You would want better competetion to push Nvidia to keep their prices honest, but AMD is fizzling out (much like XBox vs Playstation) and they are pivoting hard to focus on AI servers instead.

You would hope that AMD gets better sells, once Nvidia gets all greedy with prices but... nope.
I switched to a AMD card and have not had any issues at all.
A overclocked Rx 7700 XT is pretty close to a 4070 in performance, at alot less (380-390$). However it has no DLSS, so your stuck with FSR.
However to save like 220$ I feel like its a worthy tradeoff.
