Aside from poor game releases with bad optimisation (frame drops), everything so far runs at 100fps - A 5090 would not change the results of those badly optimised games :p
 
Nothing is on the roadmap for change in terms of new engine tech, everything we have now will be there too in 12 months, and everything being shown now, even at Unreal fest with UE 5.5 runs at 60fps on a PS5 Pro so there is 0% a 4090 will be taxed going forwards by newer games leveraging new engine tech, it should on the contrary run even better if bad optimisation due to poorly managed devs is a thing of the past.

Mate. You shall be avin one, one way or the other, whatever you may say or think now. It will happen before the 6000 series is out :p

You also never thought you would be using 16:9 yet here we are.. :D

I don’t know about anyone else, but that sounds subjective rather than objective i.e. feels over facts.

The point is that there is no objective way of measuring value to the individual buying a high-end luxury gaming product that is not being purchased for business purposes that they then profit form.

It is all about self-indulgence and enjoyment, it's a partial sunk cost. That's what we do for the hobbies we love.

let’s see how well people lap this 5090 up and I bet we’ll be getting a £4000 6090 and people will still lap it up, yeah I can’t blame them if I was big enough and could mug people like that maybe I would, or maybe I wouldn’t, maybe I’d just see pc games as a chore and just huff and puff and sell a really high priced gpu because all I’m interested in is the AI scene, then milk the tier down from it for as much as I could for minimal gain while also milking it with revenue from people streaming games that utilise my overpriced GPUs to further increase my profit margins

Your posts are mostly garbled nonsense that repeat the same things over and over.

For me it's all about 100fps. If I can't play a game at max settings at 100fps then the GPU needs an upgrade. once you go sustained 100fps there's no going back :p

For me it's about 90+ as I was testing every 10fps increments a while ago and about 90 stable seems to be the sweet spot. Anything above that is nice to have but not crucial and below the feels laggy and not fluid. Also, FG is a nice tech but really not a game changer, as it's not great with low input FPS and when I can't reach 90 without it I often rather just slightly lower something.

I haven't been following this thread (I am missing out this gen), but apparently they have been delayed.
I'm not a chip person, but something about the size of the chip combined with the heat they produce is distorting the substrate, which causes a problem with the on-board connections suffering from fatigue.
You probably already knew that, but I thought I would mention it just in case.

Who is up for a cheeky poll. For how much the 5090 is going to cost. Say starting at under 1600 quid and then going up in 200 quid increments.

But which one? MSRP for basic cards you will never see on the market after very first few minutes; FE prices that will be higher because "premium"; AIB cards which will not be able to reach MSRP because Nvidia fleecing them; premium 5090 for 30% highest prices because whales; something else? :)
