I agree. I recently swapped out my aging 2600x6core for a 5950x32core processor and upgraded from an 3070ti to a 5070 (well actually more of a sidegrade - my vram was simply too small). before this, my system had already a few years where there wasn't much difference regarding gaming - In the current configuration and the glacial speed gaming developed i'd say i have a decade before upgrades are really needed.
