Not if you adjust for cost. 7900XTX is much better value raster in everything except perhaps raytracing (although even then there are some implementations where 7900XTX is better).

Gamers buy 4090 only because DLSS is significantly better than FSR.

Better value I absolutely understand. But I thought they were claiming its out and out better/superior? As far as I was aware, the 4090 still edges out the 7900XTX in pure raster in most games, but again I'm not certain on that

I think you are right, 4090 is slightly better in most games, but at a much larger cost.

No one with a 4090 is using dlss. The input latency is noticeable.

You're talking about the frame generation part. Without it, DLSS upscaling introduces no perceivable input lag.

It's totally perceivable, though.

The superior ML upscaling of DLSS is the why Nvidia dominates the gaming sector. AMD's FSR upscaler introduces noticeable atrefacts and aliasing especially during motion, the tech isn't close.

It's nice for path traced cyberpunk
