Agreed. More and more TVs support 4K 120fps every year and monitors keep getting higher fps / more pixel dense at current >120fps, pushing the market towards the flagship cards that are just insanely expensive at > $1K USD
It’s a problem already, right now. Prices are already ridiculous and I’m sure the Nvidia 5000 series will be even more so before AMDs 8000 series add fuel to the fire in an effort to retain their fledgling market share.
It’s the main reason I haven’t upgraded yet: I just don’t want to drop ~$1K USD on another GPU that can handle 4K 120fps displays
