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

Yes, at least I can console myself knowing this is the card I originally wanted as it's going into a current loop. Was not overly fond of fitting a block to a normal card given the warranty lottery.

Will also get me out of the rat race, so there is that to it. My limit was around the 2600/2700 mark so it's not a million miles away.

Just need to pick out a riser cable, is there a stand out go to option for one on a 5090?
I got a LINKUP - AVA5 PCIE 5.0 Riser Cable (£75), which has been spot on with a few card changes recently.
However, there wasn't much availability at the time. I see OCs have cheaper ones in stock just now, £55 https://www.overclockers.co.uk/koli...ble-90-degrees-300mm-black-cas-klk-01404.html

@Gibbo I'm seeing reports the 5080 Zotac Solid/Solid OC are EOL. Is that true? Only the Solid Core models available now?

Yes for them to hit MSRP or close to it the SOLID Cooler does not permit this, it is too expensive, as such they have put focus on just doing the Core Solid, slightly smaller cooler and by pushing focus into the one model they can further reduce overheads and thus get them at or close to MSRP.

Anyone still wanting the huge cooler, it is still present on the AMP Ultra cards.
 
I can confirm we have a huge delivery (100+) of Astral and Astral LC 5090's due in Thursday this week. :)

Gah, I missed the Astral LC drop earlier after deliberating for far too long...:cry:

Any further drops of the Astral LC later for the masses or is that all for this week, Lord @Gibbo? :D

They delivered our air Astrals in full so those should not sell out too quick.

But the LC’s they only delivered us 20 units and should be 50, so fingers crossed remainder will be here tomorrow.
