@Valantar You bro are totally right. The perception of people seeing 3090 and Ti's for this price and being OK with it is going to harm them sooner or later, considering where things are going. But how to explain people who even protect this type of travesty?
I see some are saying that the perf/$ is the same or higher. well if you bump the price for lower tier cards to make them less desirable sure. Well, with that approach, if (same people) say that the 4090 lets say, is going to be 2 times faster than a 3090, we should have the 4090 sold for $3.9k? It would still be a good value in some people's eyes, won't it? That thinking is so demeaning or simply plain stupid. I'm sure when it comes to that all those above saying it is OK will literally bite their tongues. There is finite resources people have. I can buy a card for $4k not a problem but I don't want to do that for whatever reason and definitely not gonna say it is OK because there is a value there. Value, has something more than perf/$ mark. We cant also put the blame on inflation that's for sure. It is a planned approach for companies that has been developing for years. It needs time and by reading some of the posts here it is definitely working.
BTW, Titan cards had a different driver which was enabling features other consumer cards did not have. This has been brought to discussion when 1000 series cards were released and titan was missing. Of course the top consumer card reached the titan price point obviously.
