@MattGPT You wouldn't have to drop down a tier, if you can grab an FE model if anything these prices have played in your favour, whenever you sell it you're + 1000 from your purchasing price.
Exactly the scenario to be in to justify a 6090 purchase + RT/PT performance will be the biggest performance jump on those cards, not expecting much from pure raster anymore 20% if we're lucky.
@Pesky_wabbit Yeah I get it, but if you want something better than the 5080 the 4090 is still the choice.
As for your hopes of a 6080 at that price, maybe the FE version will exist but I doubt it will match 5090 performance, unless Nvidia are suddenly feeling generous again.
I'd also expect AMD's 5090 competitor to be priced at 2K or something.

@MattGPT With a 1500W PSU you'll be fine even if the GPU went to 800W hopefully they allow dual 12vHpwr cables from launch.

@Pesky_wabbit You can also buy a 4090 / 7900XTX if you prefer
And don't expect the next gen cards to be any cheaper.
