So I literally just purchased a Asus TUF RTX 4080. My current gpu is a Asus ProArt RTX 4070 Ti. I use my gpu primarily for Topaz Video AI upscaling. I game maybe once or twice a year and it's GTAV. According to chatgpt and the like a RTX 5080 will be 50% faster when using Topaz Video AI compared to my RTX 4070 Ti. My current specs are as mentioned Asus ProArt RTX 4070ti, AMD Ryzen 9 7950x, 64GB DDR5 6000, MSI Mag B650M Mortar Wifi, Corsair SF850L 850W PSU. I paid around $875 in Jan 2024 for my RTX 4070ti and I now just paid around $1800 for this RTX 5080 gpu. Am i stupid? I am upscaling videos literally every single day for about 10hrs a day using Topaz Video AI.
