Yes price:performance is a thing, but some people are also bad with their money.

Me personally, I only ever come into enough money to build a PC once every 7-10 years, so I will build the best possible machine that money can buy, so that it lasts me as long as possible while I'm surviving on ramen.

Two years ago I built a rig 7700X and a 4090; I plan on hanging onto this machine for well into the 2030s. It's definitely a lot easier to this with an AMD system—that's for sure—given that they have a reputation of supporting CPU sockets for a long time.
