NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

[Rusty0611]

Their profits on AI is ridiculous, doesn't surprise me. Gaming now just a side hustle for nvidia as evidenced by their drivers the last few months which appear to have been coded by computers.

Not great for gaming moving forward. It shows in the 5 series too, both drivers and hardware.

 

[brostradamus]

they will figure something out by the 70 series, my guess is by then they will have enough fabbing options - samsung and intel are catching up, intel's expected to achieve parity or slightly surpass tsmc by next year

So glad you got an FE lad! Enjoy!

Thanks! Yes, very pleased with it. I am still yet to actually play a game where i need the extra 30% perf increase over my 4090, but that's not the point

Behold the king of kings

13% faster than the 5090 and more efficient

Can't believe i bought a mid-range card. Time to upgrade to the 6000 Pro for the 600% gain in Cyberpunk.

- rtx 8090 - $7500
- rtx 9090 - ka-ching

That coil noise is outrageous. Sounds like Jensen bottled up the cries of a thousand gamers. Cuts the soul.

£8000 Does it get delivered by armoured van?

Possibly. Did you know Nvidia transports its AI chips in armoured vans?

Wdym? I'm sure DPD will take appropriate care, just like they did with my 5080

Surprised you got it at all and not a brick in the box considering its from amazon!

 

[SuperElectric]

Surprised you got it at all and not a brick in the box considering its from *****!

It wasn't from them, you can just about make out the first two letters...

I said "What the @#$%!", the driver just shrugged "I dunno, it was like that"
