5090 Price

Better figure out how to daisy chain PSUs in that case.

It's looking more and more like a £1200 RRP for 5080 is probable. It's also sounding like it will be -10-15% 4090 performance (with less VRAM). An anemic flagship card designed to reduce production and component costs to the utmost while "encouraging" buyers to upgrade to the mid-cycle refresh. "4080 12GB", second attempt.
If true it would destroy Kopites flawless track record. He says +10% a 4090 and no significant price increases.

I really don't see with 5080's specs how it will be faster than 4090, and think nV (and their army of bought reviewers) will lean heavily into DLSS. And I really don't see nV not raising prices, and now the TPU price listings of $1300 and $2500.

Would love to be proven wrong on both points.

I don't think they would compare dlss 5080 vs 4090 without it that would be silly, either both on or both off IMO.

I say good post by someone who knows more than me about +30% architecture gains over the 40 series. I'll see if I can find it.

Edit: Just noticed TPU's spec pages have been updated with prices. Take this for what it's worth, but they're usually right on the mark:

5090 - $2500
5080 - $1300

Those prices don't make much sense if we believe the leaked specs and/or believe the 5080 is there to make the 5090 look good... Almost double the price for what, spec wise, might BARELY be double the performance. Makes for a poor value proposition. $1200-1300 5080 and $2000-2200 5090 would be more reasonable if upselling is the goal and/or we believe the specs (if those specs also scale performance).
 
Here it is. Credit to Sashaw on Videocardz.com.

Blackwell's SM should have occupancy increases due to larger register files/caches and improvements in scheduling bursty workloads. The reason 4090 is only ~20% faster than 4080 SUPER in many games despite having over 50% more shaders is due to the fact that over a certain point, game shaders aren't dispatching enough WARPs individually to fully saturate the 4090's shader array and scaling starts dropping off even though you're adding more SMs you're hitting diminishing returns due to gaps in execution. Blackwell will probably have 2X the occupancy per SM so it can track more WARPs in flight so it can "pipeline" in more work from more, non-dependent shaders to fill those gaps. Probably has 10-15% more perf/SM/clock. I also heard it has MUCH higher clocks so expect 3GHz+ so that's another 15% perf in clocks.

Per SM, I expect it to be 30% faster than Ada (clocks included). That is the gap between Turing and Ampere per SM. 5080 will match/beat 4090 because of that alone. 5090 will be 60-70% faster than 4090. don't expect it to be less than 2000 USD.
 
Since this weekend is the last chance for wild speculation, before any more leaks drop I'm going to lock in my guess at the 5090 being 60% faster than the 4090 and the FE costing £1999
 
Since this is the last chance for guesses, this is what I’m going with.. I feel the 5090 might be optimistic?? Well soon see.

5090 - £1,799.00 - 75% faster than 4090
5080 - £1,199.00 5-10% faster than 4090
5070 Ti - £899.00 10% faster than 4080 Super
5070 - £649.00 - 4070 Ti Super level performance

Again with the 5080 being slower than 4090 XD

That would imply the 5080 is just 10% faster than 4080. Doesn't make any sense.
 
My next PC build is likely to be my last, so I was hoping to go for the 5090 to get as long as possible out of it. But even then, I don't think I could justify ~£2K.
 
I have seen some crazy prces mentioned for teh 5080 buty i just do not see it £1600 for teh5080 is creazy, Nvidia back tracked with pricing of teh 4080 last time releasing teh 4080 Super approx £200 lower. I just cannot see them making the same mistake twice. I am calling
5080 - £999
5090 £1700
 
:D
