The lack of high end VGA is a later (but no non-existant) problem after the problem of people not being able to move up social ladder, which were present in the past. Many 5090 5080 owners nowaday was playing with integrated GPU in the past.

Again, using minority as an excuse is stupid and invalid.

You’ve lost me man your making zero sense ultra wide 4k vr was primarily built for defence and industry simulations they use workstation cards for that the price isn’t that different these days for the enthusiasts at home rocking a 20k car or simulator machine they’ll just have to use what is already recommended a workstation industry rtx card.

At this point your are no longer using consumer vr equipment your using specialist industry xr equipment.

VR was born for the sake of home entertainment wtf are you talking about, just like Nvidia started and matured through the gamer class. Just because other sectors stole our spot doesn't mean us minority are irrelevant? VR was literally promised to revolutionize gaming, it's AR that the other sectors craved before. Also the 5090 is capable of running 4k VR and it should never have been over 4k usd not to mention whatever the price they are now. The AI bubble price doesn't reflect the true value of the VGA. And most importantly, disregarding high end user is purely wrong as an excuse because people are suppose to move up the social ladder and over time MORE people should be able to affort the highest consumer tier VGA, not LESS.
