Try to encode high-resolution 10bit RGB 444 video and stream it to the internet. While playing a AAA game on the same machine. Try to get the latency as low as possible and make sure the video is smooth, without artifacts on the stream.
This is the kind of problem a lot of folks are trying to solve right now and the current hardware is barely good enough to keep up...and that's with adding highly specialized add-on cards.
Try emulating Sega ST-V games on your machine -- and realize quickly that accurate emulation is a matter of clock speed over most other factors...and which has mostly slowed down since the Intel C2Q era.
When you provide compute power/bandwidth/whatever, someone will find a need for it.
I don't think anyone here is arguing that no one has a need for more power, but all of what you are describing is a niche use-case. We seeming to be passed the time where we need more power for the general use case.
