You are assuming ubiquitous fast and low latency internet connection,which does not exist


There doesn't need to be fast and low latency on every last square inch of the Earth for it to be a successful product, it just needs to be ubiquitous enough to be worth it most of the time to enough people. The gamers I know aren't also avid travellers, so if there's gigabit at the primary and secondary and tertiary residence, that covers enough to be worth it to most.


It's easier for more people to afford broadband than a 4080 though. It only needs like 30 megabits or so.


Most gaming also doesn’t need a 4080 either though!


But most of it could benefit from one!

I have a M2 Max and struggle to play most recent games. Stutters, low details, no DLSS, etc.
