Personally, used/old hardware is so dirt cheap I think I’ll only buy a gen behind or two. Not unless there’s some breakthrough akin to X3D cache by AMD.
My phone was like 1400$ 3 years ago and now I can buy it used, in good condition, tested, for like 300$

My current GPU is 7 years old and still plays Elden Ring at 60fps, I’ll probably get at least 3 or 4 more years before I need to upgrade.
