I kinda feel the same way about my 6950xt, granted i haven't bought many modern titles recently and still have a backlog, but it honestly just seems to be chugging along nicely paired with a 5800X3D. Nvidia 3000 series/amd 6000 series seems like one of those generations that aged nicely, only issue was how inflated the pricing was. I ended up snatching the 6950xt around the time the 7000 series came out for like 600 bucks, but i never would have bought it for the 1000+ pricetag it had for the longest time.

At least with the RTX3000s, the prices were only jacked up by scalpers. Then NVIDIA became the scalper.
