Are you purchasing a 5000 Series GPU?

Still running my trusty 2070Super. It does handle most of my flat screen games just fine (thanks to DLSS) but I play AMS2 in VR and I have to set everything to low in order to maintain 90fps. I want to turn on the pretties :p

5080 will probably be my choice. Can't stomach the thought of the price for a 5090. I already find paying over a grand for GPU ridiculous.
 
Coming from a 3080FE it will likely be a 5080 for me. I only use my machine with triple 1440p screens for iRacing.

No immediate rush so will wait for benchmarks before making a decision.
 
Was thinking 5090 if it's $2k or less but my appetite for upgrading has been sated recently so I'm more ambivalent about it atm. Also got a lot of work to do in the first half of the year so it's likely I cba to get to it, which means that by the time I do upgrade I'll probably cheap out as usual. :cry:

Guess the biggest issue is really having a game to want to upgrade for. Don't see another Cyberpunk on the horizon for next year.

Got my bingo card ready:

"I can afford one, I just don't want one."

Wild assumptions about other's finances based on GPU purchase.

"For the price of that I could get (something totally unrelated)"

Ordered two :)

Mental gymnastics to justify purchase to internet nobodies.

Under the thumb posters-"I want one but the other half would kill me"

"I'll stick with my <potato> until they are £299"

Sour grapes posters having a temper tantrum because others are buying things they can't (but will insist they can, so why the sour grapes?)

"ha ha get the lube out"

You forgot the, "I require one for work purposes".
 
It's a maybe for me.

I'm thinking about selling my laptop and building a new desktop. Just holding out for new GPUs. The 5060 Ti is likely to be a significant upgrade over my 3070 Mobile, so depending on price it could be tempting.

Am not really that interested in one at the moment as my 4090 rans every game I have so far really well

It really only the DP 2.1 output I want to future proof myself a bit for when they bring out 4k OLED monitors with proper G-Sync & DP 2.1

Probably getting a 5090. Might go for a 5080 is the price is reasonable / if 5090 is priced too high. It’s a lot of money, isn’t it?

Would be upgrading from a 3090.
 
I might be tempted. I've never been a fan of Nvidia. Only ever had three Geforce cards and they all broke just after a year, yet my AMD, ATI and even my old Voodoo cards never had any issues, so I've been on team red for a while now but the 5700xt I've got has been a disappointment from the day I got it (ray tracing became a thing 5 seconds later and the 8GB VRAM isn't enough).
I will wait to compare the 3 companies offerings (yes I'll consider Intel too) and then see where I can get the most value and performance for around £500.
