50 Series Partner Cards Showcase

The FE is an option, but I'm waiting for the review for that one, mainly because I'm super interested to see how they've got a 575W card down to a 2 slot cooler while all the other AIB models still come with a shipping container bolted on to the side.

Also, I need a backup plan for 5 seconds after 2pm when the FE sells out.

Trio is missing the vapour chamber and I don't like the Suprim this year. I don't want to spend more for less, so that rules that out.

I think first choice FE, back up Vanguard or Astral for me.

I wonder if Zotac will be doing a 6 year warranty again. They have a similar light strip to Asus, but do I want to be advertising "Zotac Gaming" logo on my PC side and front for the next two years lol.
 
Are we just assuming all of these cards will be launch ones or has it been confirmed? Just conscious that with the 40 series the more premium cards were launched slightly later, I hope it's not the case this time!

The Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, Gigabyte and Inno3D were definitely there for launch last time.

Others came later, usually the white skus and water cooled variants.

Oddly no Rog Strix for the 5080/5090, The Astral is taking its place.

No dragons no buy.

Also, at this rate I'm convinced that in order to cool itself the FE is going to sound like my PS4 did when I fired up FF7 remake on it towards the end of it's life.

I've got three 140mm fans blowing below the gpu with the fe pass through its gonna be cold as ice*.

*at 420p MS Calculator, with frame gen.
 
I thought Asus Strix was replaced by Astral?

please no more silly msi dragons on everything, sometimes its OK but most times its silly and oversized. Their X870 God like motherboard is one example, shame because its a great looking motherboard. Was hoping msi would bring back that LCD screen on their GPU.

what is with all the extra fans, so who is going to one up Asus and msi with 6 fans?

Looking at the Gaming X Trio, because it's the same as previous cards I've had (1080 and 3090) and never been disappointed in fan silence & quality. Though I see it comes with a small bar to prop it up lol.

What are we expecting price-wise for these? +£150 or +200 more than FE?

Gaming Trio looks great, just puts me off there is no vapour chamber. Though last Gen in testing it dosnt make much difference. I think the Trio is lower down the stack so likely none oc £1935 and oc +£60.
 
I have an FE 3090 that looks small in my BeQuiet 900FX case, so going with FE 50 series is gonna be silly, I was fully expecting it to be huge. I think I need to get a bigger card, I bought a 3070 inno3d a few months ago for a lower end build and was impressed with the build quality, so Im hopint to get one of those when it launches.
