Man, I snagged a 7900 XTX for $900 out the door last year and I feel very clever for not waiting to see how the 50 series turned out. I cannot believe there are GPUs on sale for damn near $4k, it's insanity.
Xtx for 900$ last year is a helluva good deal. You're not missing out, with the added bonus you can load some hefty LLMs with that massive VRAM for consumer GPU standards, while paying a fraction of the only other worthy competitor, the 4090. Kudos
Thanks! It was my first "dream" PC build (I got a 9800 X3D in there too), so this follows a period of great anxiety about making such a huge purchase with all the techtubers saying "do not buy!" even back then. The relief I'm feeling at having made a defensible decision is honestly palpable ๐
