NVIDIA 5000 SERIES

I’ve got as 3080, it’s the most powerful gpu I’ve ever owned and been great. I was preparing to sell it and potentially get a 5090 for around £1200 with the 3080 offsetting some of it but £2k is wow.

I think I’ll “try” and get a 5080fe.. should still see a big jump in performance over my 3080 right?
Bro I don't think I'd get it for £1200 and I'm selling my 4090 lmao.
 

the footnote on recommended psu

"Our wattage recommendation is based on a fully overclocked GPU and CPU system configuration. For a more tailored suggestion, please use the “Choose By Wattage” feature on our PSU product page: https://rog.asus.com/event/PSU/ASUS-Power-Supply-Units/index.html"

guessing 850w psu is fine for stock clocked 5090 and lower power cpu's like the 7800x3d


edit
with an intel i9 and 5090 with overclocking turned on, they recommend 1600w :D

So literally announced a day ago then haha!

Very impressive on HDMI’s part though, 96gbps is some feat seeing as it can do 4K 480hz!

Probably a bit too soon to have it on the 50 cards as no monitors can take advantage of this yet but in the next 2-3 years no doubt
 
Oh hell no. 144fps at 4k via HDMI is my ceiling lol.
 
I'd saved for a 5090 but I think the usual smoke and mirrors slides on performance have brought me back to reality a little now, I really need to see raw performance numbers before I make a decision. One of the lower offerings might be more tempting if they perform well, they should all be a good bump up from a 2080ti.
The slide from Nvidia has one game with RT and no upscaling and it’s showing the 5090 around 30% faster than a 4090 which is probably about right given the specs.
 
You're thinking about it the wrong way. The case goes inside the graphics card this time.

I'm using one of these

so almost
 
Hmm maybe the best ‘like for like’ comparison we have is the charts for Plague Tale Requiem as that only supports DLSS3, so no fancy advantages for the 50 series cards above the 40 series.

From eyeballing those charts it suggests that the 5090 gives around 30% more raw performance than the 4090.

On the ongoing fake frames discussion, as long as it looks good and doesn’t feel awkward then I don’t see a problem personally.
Agree I mean all frames are fake in that they digital. The problem was they were really not good enough compared to the real frames and caused other issues. If DLSS4 looks as good as shown in the demonstration and widely enough adopted then it no problem really in the tech.

What we should consider then is if that is 30% for a like to like as best as we have seen to date and they shown that, is it the top end of performance increase without DLSS4 where things are not supported. If so then the price to performance this gen doesn't actually improve to last gen in those titles. In that the price increase at MSRP is 25% and seems like that roughly the performance increase outside of DLSS4 games.
 
Let’s just hope the new FG tech completely avoids the ghosting issues that we sometimes see currently as that would spoil it for me TBH.

Don’t use FG currently as it’s a bit pants.
 
DP 2.1 is a mess unless things have changed any cable over 1m does not meet the spec and is not DP80 certified.

Some people on fleabay already asking £1600 for a MSI 5080 bottom of the range. That is going to be brutal.

Don't feed into the hype. It only makes it worse.Its frustrating to see so many users stating things like this. It's just a feedback loop that generates the FOMO etc

There is no reason for these to be scalped. The 4xxx series was readily available most of the time, and there is no crypto mining boom.

I think you'd have to be a fool to buy one of these above RRP at or around launch.
