You're saving two hundred and ten dollars though...

I don't really know who is buying them. Anyone who isn't stupid will just buy an rtx 4070 super or 4080 super for a third of that price. I can't really think of a single use case for a 5090 for an average consumers needs.

the average american is 250k+ in debt

I guess if you are gaming in 8k a 5090 could make the difference but I literally don't know of a single person that is doing that

Probably guys running local AI models due to the 32 VRAM.

The usual response is that its for 'enthusiasts' but even then the 5090 is only around 30% better than the 4090 according to benchmarks, hardly worth 3k when in a few months they will just release yet another GPU.

Retards that are obsessed with graphics

I used to feel like the stupidest fucking idiot in the world when I spent $2.5k (AUD) on a watercooled 2080 Ti back in the day, fucking thing broke down after a couple years too
It's some small consolation to me that I didn't just buy at the peak of the bubble

A lot of businesses need them nowadays anon and by businesses, I don't mean the conventional mom and pop or retail store, but a lot of people working from home who can justify the spending due to what they earn.

This, + pseudo 5k on a g9. FWIW not even a 5090 can run most AAA slop reasonably though without DLSS at that point
