That and there just hasn't been much gains in performance in recent years, so it makes sense to not upgrade for a while. And a lot of people upgraded all at once during the pandemic, so there are less people on the market for a new GPU.
I got a prebuilt like a couple years ago after getting a chunk of money and it still does me ok. There's a 6800xt in it and it still handles current games ok. I'm in no rush, the only thing I would like is better ray tracing but that's not enough of a reason for me to spend £700+ on a new card.
Very true, I was using a 1080TI until a few months ago.
