I've said it before and it's true today: a lot of people don't think of themselves as fanboys, they just constantly say all the same things fanboys say and think all the things fanboys think. The ayymd discourse permeates the online discussions of all these things such that people can no longer determine what's biased and what's not.
Moreover, as I've said before, a lot of people's sense on pricing today is just miscalibrated and often they're outright hallucinating on past prices. GTX 970 was the cheaper x70 ever released - the segment has bounced between $350 and $400 since it was introduced, and $349 in 2010 was a lot more money than it is now. And people don't have a good sense of just how much costs have grown and are growing - most people don't even bother accounting for CPI in these discussions.
