I'm excited for the 5090, maybe I'm only one :cry:

In the CPU forum, there's no need to upgrade since we are GPU limited at realistic settings like 4K...

In the GPU forum, there's no need to upgrade since we are CPU limited even with fastest 9800x3d...

Judging by the specs I would guess the 5090 will be $2000, 5080 $1000, 5070ti $800, 5070 $600. These would all end up around the same value for money, and I make these guesses based on what they learned from the 4000 series vs 4000 super.
Now of course thats assuming we ever see MSRP outside of Founder's Editions.
 
Honestly though consumers might not like it but nVidia is robbing themselves if they don't price the premium halo card accordingly, where they should get criticism though is the stack under that.

The 5090 is going to be £2499 isn't it?

Yeah msrp is stated to be around $2000, which when translated to gbp it's 1=1 so £2000, and then the aibs at least entry level for the 4090 were like +300 so at least £2300 for entry level and £2500 for the more expensive aibs, even at these prices and the paper launch I can expect it to sell out at launch - people just need more gpus these days

Server boards routinely have two or sometimes even 4 CPU sockets, which is basically what the absolute ballers were running as personal PCs back in the day. But although the stats looked great, performance in games never came close to justifying the expense, so they faded away for personal use.

I think these days you can get server-class CPUs with so many cores, RAM channels and PCI-E lanes, that more than one socket is a bit redundant anyway, for all but insane workstation/AI workloads anyway. They still probably don't do as well in games as a 9800X3D would.

It's hard not to drool at some of these beasts though. But if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it!

A 192-core, 500W TDP CPU!

How much RAM do you want? Yes.

Want to put 24TB of RAM in your PC? This motherboard can, and will even accommodate 384 AMD EPYC Turin cores and almost 1 petabyte storage

ASRock Rack's TURIN2D48G-2L+ has a TDP up to 500W

I thought that was GB for a second and had to do a double take :D

Probably. Just saw something (Moore's law is dead CES leak latest video) about the 5080 and 5090 being marketed for professional use so that's probably a good indication neither are going to be cheap/good value.
5070 Ti will be all gamers need, apparently :cry:

If that turns out to be true, my 6950XT(paid 444 quid before tax 1½ years ago) will be the best bang for buck I've ever gotten out of a GPU as I will most likely continue using it instead of "upgrading". Pretty insane to think about, how meh 4000/7000 series has been and we now are looking into another generation of meh outside of paying stupid money.

Ah of course with only 12 GB (or maybe 14 if we're really well behaved) of Vram no doubt.

If Samsung are developing 3GB modules with increased bandwidth that might end up in a 5000 series refresh, would you skip the initial launch?

I was thinking about that the other day. For me no. If your going to benefit from the generation improvements your best biting the bullet and get one from release as long as its not scalped. Buying halfway through the cycle for something that is slightly better but what should have been from release tends to be a poor one because its going to get replaced circa a year from then by the impending next gen.
