No 256-bit? If they really don't care for highend I will likely have to buy a 4090 when Blackwell launches because it would be the only upgrade from my 7900 XTX. Buying Blackwell is unlikely an option because it will be horribly overpriced, especially if AMD starts to suck again. The XTX feels like AMD can finally have a hold in the highend again. It doesn't need to outperform, it needs to outperform NVIDIA where they don't: Pricing.
You don't have to buy anything next gen if the performance of the 7900XTX is enough. Unless you want the best RT performance but if you wanted that you wouldn't have bought from AMD to begin with. They can keep raising prices because of consumerism. If you always go to buy the next thing they can keep increasing prices because you'll just keep buying.
More performance is always good. RT is more like a bonus, I would like it, but I won't pay double to get it. I'm running 4K120.
