I that’s part of it… The 9700K is like 7 years old at this point, and I’m all for holding off updates if it does what you want, but eventually you’ll have to if you want to actually take advantage of that 4080

I’ve always said that, because the baseline GPUs are the RTX 3060 and the RX 6700 (consoles equivalent)… And those GPUs aren’t doing amazing RT so, what’s the point in pushing it so hard NOW for the 1% of users with a 4090 or whatever?
