because you are looking at 1080p which the new 4090 and 4080 barely do better than the 3090/ti. the 6950xt does a touch better at 1080p so it is a bit higher on that chart.

use some common sense and look at 4k and 1440p which the 4080/90 perform very well at and you'll se a lot different looking chart. those cards are not meant for such low resolutions.

spending $1500+ for 1080p is beyond wasteful and stupid, but crosses over into utterly asinine
