So 3090 price for 3060 performance, doesn't sound very promising. I wish we could exploit those gpus easier for compute, but compute with metal is simply not there, at least for now.

It's not priced like a 3090 though? There's an entire computer there and the CPU performance is no slouch, even if the GPU may be lacking for what gamers want today.

I'm pretty sure the gamers who're always rocking high-end video cards are a small minority of PC gamers, anyway, even if we only count "serious" gamers (not just Candy Crush or whatever) to remove that potential objection.

A lot more probably find a best-bang-for-the-buck midrange card and hang on to it for ~3 years, before upgrading to another midrange card.

You're right, it's priced higher than RTX3090. Because HP sells the whole system with RTX3090 at $2909 right now.
