Not necessarily.

Many held off buying a PC because they couldn't get a GPU due to crypto mining slurping it up. When they came back, they price for years old hardware was scandalous. People held off, until they finally needed to update that hardware. Guessing that upgrade queue has been worked down somewhat.

The gpu buying window was mainly 2022, 2023 would signal a downturn because new gpus were badly priced and the most popular price points released bad gpus. Its of the reasons AMD market share grew much more this year over Nvidia, as those who only used Nvidia had non optimal options.
