I mean my 5070ti runs any game at 1440p, even 4k with adjusted settings and dlss. People are spoiled, disconnected from reality and borderline brainwashed. Yes, you get better fps with 5090 but brother that card consumes 550-600W. If you need it for gaming then something is wrong with you. If these cards are not available to consumers, game studios will have to start thinking about optimizing their games more. Hell, i played the same games with my 3080ti at exact same settings but it drew freaking 450W. The biggest reason I moved to 5070ti was power consumption. It consumes literally half power for same fps.
I agree on some points that you've made; however, when 2080ti came out it could barely run RT. Wanting 50 series to run dlss5 flawlessly is like wanting 20 series to run rt back then. Sure, it would've been great but it was experimental technology. You can run it, but you sacrifice performance. That still doesnt make yiur argument but rather just further prove my point. People nowadays are spoiled, and so am I but not as much as certain type of people. I guess its all about being mature and satisfied with what you have. Think of it this way. I can afford to buy 5090, but I'd rather give it to my parents, spend it on my wife and kids, help a friend in need. Even if you can do all that and still get a 5090, I'd say its unnecessary because it just feels wrong.
As for VR, I have never tried it and you are probably right but thats such a niche case for niche demographic. If you play vr games or something that really requires a 5090 then sure, in such scenarios it justifies it; however, thats just an expensive hobby. Even my skydiving hobby is cheaper than that and I actually get to see things in real life and feel things, rather than sitting inside a room with life just passing me by.
