NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - (PRE)ORDER DISCUSSION **NO COMPETITOR HINTING**

Yay baby… a scalped MSI 5080 Shadow just sold for £1,040.06.

Time for these scalped 5080 listings to hit the £1,0xx price range!

Scalpers can go and scalp Easter eggs instead.

Woo! Picked up the MSI Vanguard 5090 Launch Edition SOC from the high-street retailer for 2,599 about an hour ago. Any reviews on the Vanguard 5090 here?
Bought from the same place last week. But only have time to use it since yesterday.

Tried benchmark few times, temperature are mid 60s for both GPU and memory. Fans are quiet.

Only issue I have is MSI center, I couldn't get the RGB setting plug in to install to change the colours.

Seems encouraging so far! I’ve read good things elsewhere today as well. Fingers crossed this is it.

How long did it take for yours to arrive? Mine says tomorrow supposedly but haven’t had any confirmations as yet.

I really like it so far, not bad with the silent bios. I have +300 core and +2000 mem stable, could probably do more. The card looks good, which helps :p

How many were there do we think?

About 90 seconds worth, it went very quick. I'm not sure about the Ventus 5090, no vapour champer, maybe 5 heatpipes at best. The FE could be better :cry:

Turned the fans to 100%. Very noisy, but with headphones, well my bose noise cancelling ones, its bearable. If I need to run them at 100%. (GPU Power is at 104%)

A drop of 10°C from default curve. (Its flashing 58 / 61 now)


Need more fans in case to get that heat out. Case ambient at 41.0°C :)

You should undervolt that rather than putting 300 on the core. Also you can get a modded profile for afterburner if you google it, to do +3000 on the mem
