4080 has better cost per frame than the 4090, I can't understand why everyone thinks the 4090 is better value.

4080 price drop?

I don't think any of today's cards from AMD or Nvidia are of good value, there is only value against the relative performance, even if that value is poor value, it's still a performance uplift that's quite sizeable.
I don't think any GPU has been good value since the 30 series top ends launched.
Against the 4080, yes sure, but the 4080 doesn't align with the pricing of what the 3080 was, so relative to the performance vs value again, it's much poorer value than the performance difference between the 3090 price to performance vs the 4090 price to performance.
As an example going from a 3080 Ti to a 4080 for me would have been a poor upgrade.. The relative uplift is smaller compared to the gigantic uplift with the 4090 instead.

Missed that one as my Sapphire HD4890 Vapor-X was smashing it
