The thing I don't understand is how is the 4000 series is so much more energy efficient compared to the 5000 series? The RTX 4060 has a TDP of 115 watts. The RTX 5060 has a TDP of 145W. The 5060 Ti is 180W. Even the lowest end GPU, the RTX 5050 is 130W of power. All that extra electricity being sucked from the outlet = more heat generation inside of the case which means more heat being expelled in your room. NVIDIA took one step forward and 2 steps back in that regard.
4000 series had a good focus on efficiency and delievered in that regard. It was marketed badly and was not priced reasonably--but the 50 series is just worse.

Update: My two tech-bro confidants messaged me separately and basically said not to think and just buy it.
Big upgrade from my 1060 🙌😁

Nvidia is killing the market share. AMD need to catch up
There's an AMD GPU in every PlayStation, SteamDeck, Xbox, and most handheld PCs on the planet. They're doing okay. They also make significantly more profit on their CPU division. AMD just doesn't care about consumer GPUs anymore. 3 SKUs for this generation? What a joke.

They stayed on the same process node but upped the core clocks, which requires more wattage. The performance increases are about 1:1 with regard to wattage, but you do get a bit more performance with the move to GDDR7 as well.

One main thing is what resolution you are gaming at?
Do you do video editing/encoding?
Do you do local AI processing?
