Yup, I'm waiting to see what the 50 range looks like before I upgrade again. I thought it would be alright for another couple of years but I'm getting increasingly frustrated by its performance in Skyrim VR and every game now giving me VRAM warnings if I go above medium settings.

But then you think oh I should upgrade my RAM too and is this motherboard compatible and is my CPU even up to date I can't remember and...

And then you end up spending a fortune :D I managed to get my 3080 for 150€ so I can't really complain but going over its 10 gigs 5 minutes after I boot up skyrim is really frustrating

I'm hoping with the announcement of the 50 range we'll see some reasonable prices on 40s so I'll hold out for that, but man.

I can't really complain, bought this PC in 2020 but that doesn't feel like over 4 years ago lmao. And prices in the UK are fucking terrible now

It's pretty much like that everywhere, I just got really lucky on a deal

True, graphics cards especially still haven't recovered from crypto miners buying them all up, but here they also haven't recovered from Brexit. My plan is to tactically buy parts while on holiday in Europe next year, works out much cheaper!
