No thanks. I bought an RTX 3060 during Cyber Monday 2022 to replace my GTX 750 and it's already work enough managing the heat output from a 170W card that I tend to bandwidth-bottleneck at 125W according to nvidia-smi.
Hell, aside from the odd emulator like PCSX2 for my PS2 with a dead optical drive, my repurposed 2012 HP prebuilt with a Radeon HD 5870 from 2009 as a "game console except not a console" does everything I want.
Literally the only thing they could tempt me with to upgrade in less than another 10 years is a comparably performant, comparably sub-$400 CAD option with sufficiently more than the 12GiB of VRAM this card has. (Maybe 30GiB. I think that's the requirement for that experimental ML model for inferring 3D models from 2D images.)
