It's amazing how many people will rush out to buy this at $2000 so they can get a few more frames while playing on, most likely, a 1440 or 1080p monitor. Psychological obsolescence lol. The same people will scream about housing unaffordability and car insurance prices.
The 5090 was made for people with a 4K@240Hz monitor. Nvidia even said that 4K@240fps was the target (even though it's not Native 4K and we all wish it was lol). But as of now that's the "best" we can have :ohwell:

Cyberpunk 2077 is a 2020 title, and Nvidia had the audacity to show how their upcoming $2000 card (and more, we’re being told) card runs it at 27 FPS in 4K native - we are getting further and further from even planning on running anything native. Which is perfect if you ask Nvidia - their upscaler is the only one worth using!

I was definitely hoping that RT/PT performance between the 5090 and 4090 would be around 60-70% faster thanks to newer RT cores and much higher memory bandwidth, but nope... I don't know if they're always using DLSS and not Native 4K for their benchmarks but it's very disappointing if it's just 30-40%.
