Yes, but it is a complete gaming system. My point is $500 is still a lot of money for a used GPU that is nearly 3 years old. Jut retailed brand new for $699. So yes, prices were crazy over that period for a variety of reasons, but that shouldn’t shift the gaming value proposition so dramatically.

Yeah. It's good hardware. You can get cheaper cards (even cost-competitive options) on PC but Nvidia won't sell them to you. Especially not now that they're got 10 billion dollars on their TSMC tab.

Sure but the 3080 is a single component while the PS5 includes everything needed to run the game. The way GPU prices have inflated over the past couple generations has been absurd.
