15 years? What are you talking about? My 1080 when it was new was about $500-550, and the top end 1080ti was only $650ish. Only in the past few years has both AMD & Nvidia been screwing everybody over in terms of pricing.
Personally I use the Sapphire Pulse AMD Radeon RX7900xt, the 7900xtx was provided by AMD as a review unit. The XT is powerful by itself and I didn’t want to spend too much hence skipped the xtx.
I don’t have the XTX just the XT but I’ve been enjoying the shit out of it. Runs everything at high/ultra 120+fps on my ultrawide 1440p monitor.
Did I enjoy paying $800 for it no, it should be more like $550ish, and the XTX $650-700. But the whole market is screwed in terms of pricing.
Cards like the 7900 XT have not been priced $550 at launch even once in the past 15 years

1080 MSRP was 599, 1080 ti was 699 so you’re factually wrong

The XTX is overpriced junk.
