Am surprised we're even getting a 5090 this time at the consumer-level pricing, they could earn thousands more per-chip easily. No competition = 5080 max.

There are people who bought 4090s two years ago, who have money in their pocket right now. Gotta sell them something

They'll keep the gaming card department at Nvidia around forever.
It's essentially their marketing department at this point. They haven't even announced anything yet and the entire PC enthusiast community has been on fire talking about them for the past month. Every day there's a new headline. Nvidia this, Nvidia that.
Nvidia bad, Nvidia good, the important thing is that people are talking about them.

That's the problem with a market situation which is functionally a monopoly. You can charge what you like and people who want the product will have no choice but to pay. There's no way the PS5 PRO would have cost so much with genuine competition from MS.

I'd be very surprised if there is much margin at all in the PS5 Pro.
Tbf they are only doing what the market and competition is allowing them to do. 90% market share ffs. Lol.

Can't wait to see all the different brands designs.
Anyone getting a 5080/5090 are you loyal to a board partner or flexible? I'm leaning to the fe but MSI and Asus usually have great designs/components. I do like the leaked Gaming Trio design already.

Is there an updated list? It's a great resource but the OP is over 20 years old.FE because cheap, followed by the cheapest green on this list

This.
At this point, nobody can be angry at Nvidia. Blame the folks who continue to pay £1000+ for a GPU, as this gives them a green light to continue charging those kind of prices.

Yes, agree 100%.
Anyway, just received the 1200W PSU I ordered,

If the 5080 FE comes in at £999 I'll get t on finance around June or July after my new job starts. If it's any more than £999 then Jensen can lovingly suckle on a satchel of severed Johnsons.

Would they though? Wouldn't Nvidia just rebadge the same GPU's and sell them to datacentre/AI etc clients for even more money? I really get the impression that they don't give two hoots about gaming cards, because each one sold as a gaming GPU is missed revenue to the unquenchable demand from datacentres/AI
Soldato
They can sell 4090's with 24GB extra memory, call it an RTX6000 and sell it for £6000+, if push came to shove I highly doubt they'd have any issue just rebadging all their gaming cards, give em a little more memory and charge thousands more per card to AI companies and data centres.
