Well he's not wrong, people don't really factor in various power efficiency statistics when they buy graphics cards. Ultimately I feel PC gamers just want whatever Nvidia tells them to want. Everybody wants ray tracing and DLSS, even when these features are version-locked behind newer cards and only really useful for low-end (DLSS) and high-end (ray-tracing) cards at that. Going by Steam hardware survey, grand majority of people have little use for these features and yet you always see people clamor for them. I used to own a 2080 and I don't think I used either feature once.
