Fair enough on that... I had just upgraded earlier in the year, so I'm set for the next 3-5 years at least, that said, I'll probably defer my usual mid-cycle gpu upgrade and hold onto my 9070xt for a while as well, I don't see GPU/Ram prices going back to normal for another 3+ years given how many data center rollouts are planned and mostly paid for in that timeframe. My bigger concern is actually going to be electricity costs in the face of those data center rollouts.

Not to mention actual AI fears since I've started playing with the latest Anthropic models (Claude Code), it's impressive and the field is still evolving rapidly. The job market is going to get worse IMO.
