There seems to be quite a mark up over US prices in Aus for the new Nvidia 4000 cards.
RTX 4090 (24GB) – AU$2,959

A week or so after their new GPUs release would be a great time to start looking for deals. Even events like black-Friday or cyber Monday. Even the holidays.
I'm absolutely happy with my 6900XT and it'll take years until I have to upgrade, but if the new generation can provide way better performance at a more efficient rate, I wouldn't mind upgrading within the next few months. I just want to see benchmarks before I make any decisions.
