Let's assume it's a good generation with no disappointments. The 90 card is amazing and blows everything else out of the water. It's like the 4090 was. The 50-series isn't as good, but let's assume maybe the 60-series is great. What is your realistic limit to what you would pay for a sick 90-class card?
Personally, I used to buy high-end SLI options, so that was around $1500 for two cards. I know SLI isn't a thing anymore, but that would be my personal limit if I was a 90 buyer. I'd be $1500-$2000.

I checked market prices and the going rate for a sixty nine is $100. Mathematically this would suggest a sixty ninety should be no more than $1000. All of your poll opinions are massively overpriced.

Probably around $1000 at this point is the most I would pay for any graphics card. Though I did pay about $2000 for the RTX 3090 from EVGA a while back, when I had more money.

My current card was $1200, but I only had to pay for half of it out of pocket, as I got about $600 as a Christmas gift for it.

I am willing to pay about $2,500 or so. It DOES have to be a compelling product. The 4090FE was because it was by far the fastest and quietest card I have owned. Considering getting a 5090 because it is 2 slot.

I would rather buy $500 used flagship one or even two generations older than $1000 new. More than $600, it should help me plug into the Matrix otherwise not worth it.
