I sold my 4090 for 82% of the buy price. Surprisingly, my 9800X3D's onboard iGPU is enough to play emulated and older games. However, I must concede, the PS5 Pro now outmatches my PC.
Some interesting notes:

1) Top-end PC parts really hold their value.
2) PC gaming isn't as expensive as advertised - rather, think of it as an investment. For a period of 2 years, I had around £1500 invested in Nvidia hardware. After 2 years, I got that money back, and during that 2 years, I had the best GPU available, which means during that 2 years I played every game at higher resolution, settings, and framerate than you did. I feel this should alter the conversation around the cost of PC hardware. Discuss.
