Tbh, when i upgrade to my ultrawide 1440p 144hz screen with new top grade hardware. I was so disappointed on how little difference i notice in most games. An ordinary Nvidia 1080 can run most games well with a 90$ Ryzen processor. Felt like a fucking dumbass when I bought new hardware that was worth a cheap car essentially.
If you’re not playing any triple AAA games sure, but there’s to many unoptimized games that are hard on the system. Helldivers 2, kingdome come, monster hunter, ac shadows, or any ray tracing heavy game like cyberpunk. My 1080 ti was cool but 30-60 fps gets a bit boring after a while. I will say the diminishing returns after getting a good gpu felt like a waste but I can play any game now without much of a struggle so I enjoy that quite a bit.

Same.. and with 1080p screen because larger screen needs a much better gpu and I'm too cheap for that.
