The 4080 would be outside my acceptable price range but it rarely seems worth being a waitfag. The only recent instance I can think of where waiting proved better was in 2020 when the September Quest 2 release shit all over recent Quest 1 buyers. There were leaks and rumors early that year so you had plenty of warning and it wasn't too long of a wait.

For GPUs, people said skip the underwhelming 20xx series cards and wait for the 30 series. I waited and was stuck still using a 970. The wait was 2 years plus a few more months due to card/chip shortages with unlucky people waiting up to 6 months after launch to get a GPU. Maybe it's because I'm getting old but that's no small amount of time to enjoy smooth graphics instead of making do with stutters.
