We hit a ceiling and just faking it with frame generation to show advancement.

I don't know if I should feel bad for the poor souls selling their 4090 prematurely, or feel good for those buying a 4090 for cheap lol.

It all depends on what you consider a decent performance increase gen to gen and what you willing to pay for it.  4090 based on the chart below that someone posted earlier should get a decent Rasterization Performance increase base on the increase in Shader Performance. Raserization to Shader Performance not exactly one to once but it the best indicator we have.  Now anything below 4090 getting a very small increase in Shader Performance so in those cases I agree if that all you care about there no point in upgrading but the 5090 is getting a decent boost there as well.

That being said if I had a 4090 I would not be upgrading personally.  I currently running a 3090 so the jump for me going to be a lot bigger then going from a 4090 and the jump from 3090 to 5090 big enough to justify cost for me personally.

*looking through the chart...*

So could it actually be that without RT, DLSS oder FG, the 5070 is weaker than the 4070 Super and the increases for the 5070Ti and 5080 over their 40 Super counterparts are actually minimal to non-existant?

That would also explain the lower-than-expected prices of the cards...
