I tend to see others in gaming upgrading all the time and I'm fine with most mid-range stuff for anywhere between 6 and 10 years, depending on advanced in tech. I'm currently behind because of raytracing and DLSS becoming a thing only like a year or two after building my current rig; but I don't need that stuff (it's not even mind meltingly good anyway; I've compared stuff side by side with RT on and off between mine and another machine and couldn't really see a difference unless it was with full RT reflections) and most new things still run acceptable for me.

RT isn't worth it unless you're already upgrading IMO
