But of course. Got to milk the current gen cards with all the AI craze then drop next gen cards to milk those as well
I have said it multiple times, why release new cards when they have no competition?
Why release cards when people are willing to accept a game rendered at 720p and presented at 1080p or 1440p?
One day Intel and AMD might finally start being competition again but until then, why do nGreedia need to do anything but rebadge old cards and focus on more upscaling garbage.

They don't even care enough about gamers anymore. Most of their chips are going straight into data centers that will never be built. Man, the crash will be spectacular. And unlike the banks there will be no bailout for AI companies because there's nothing they can do to make themselves profitable. They are destined to fail.

I totally get the frustration with the fake frames thing, but do we even need more than a 5080 for games? A 5080 gets an average of 70-90 FPS at 4k in today's games. Turn down a couple of superfluous settings and use the right level of DLSS and you can easily get supreme performance.
So do we even need RTX 6000 series before 2028?

I think that you completely miss the idea of why people want a new gen. Most people want more performance at the same price. For example, 30% performance at $500. They don't want a 6090 that's 40% faster than a 5090 and costs 40% more. Sure, some might buy these, but the majority are just looking for better value for money.
As for playing with settings, sure, you can always do this, and many do. "We" can make do with a 9060 XT. This argument stretches almost endlessly. The point is, not everyone is willing to make that compromise. People have different requirements and different budgets, which is why there are a wide range of GPU models.
This also means that games can't advance. If performance stagnates, so does rendering complexity.
Bottom line, people can certainly live with stagnation. That was the case with CPUs until Ryzen appeared. Arguing that it's a good idea is a folly.

It's easy to remember why people want new gen. You are not right in assuming I don't understand that. The majority are looking for better value for money. That's obvious.
You and Damien both effectively said 'why even bother releasing new hardware if it's just using fake frames'? My answer was to that. Releasing new hardware now that brings 5080 performance down to 5070 levels is not going to happen, just fake frames are just that... fake. A 6070 in 2026/2027 with 5080 performance or more is not something I saw happening - it's 'fake', not real. Just like fake frames.
We don't need new hardware to run games with fake frames. Games run fine on a 5080 already natively. They also run fine on lower end GPUs like the 9060XT. As you said, we can make do with those cards. But 'we' (you) don't want to because 'we're' (you're) not wiling to compromise. I am. If you're not willing to compromise, fine. I'm not trying to project; I'm asking a question. And you answered.
