If it looks so close to native, who cares what the base is?

I wouldn't call that "only" as it's a huge deal from a marketing perspective. xx80 class had at least some kind of competition dating back to ATI tech times. The way I see it complete lack of competition at the top is giving Nvidia a status of an undisputed dGPU market champion and with that comes a price premium. They can easily charge 100 maybe even 200 bucks more for every tier and still outsell competition like 5:1 as average Joe looks at what's the best first and then what from that brand can he/she actually afford, disregarding other options on the market unfortunately.

And will

There's not much to be proud about in Radeon division imho. I've been buying ATI products since early 1990ies and it was all downhill once AMD aquired the company especially once old dev ATI team was gone.

That was true yesterday but not today. AMD software is that good.

Just rumours from China, converted to usd $2600 iirc.

if true 2600$ not bad for 5090

Atm Quality looks better than Native so its very nice tech and lot of free frames.
