Those 5080 specs yikes!! Not confirmed yet I know but why an extra 80W for a 5% performance increase over a 4080 super?

thats a full 5080 die.. so the actual 5080 chip would be neutered further, lol great time to be doing jensen's job.. i wonder if he even visits his office
When people are giving guess it should be based on msrp and fe prices. Aftermarket prices can vary a lot.

also i was wondering if nvidia should make a separate add-on card for streaming, all that precious die area could be used for more cuda cores - not everyone streams games, could shave off $100 from MSRP

Of course they will, they need the reviews to drive the sales.
When it did get ridiculous was with the 3080 when every reviewer had multiple cards and kept banging on about how great they were with endless charts and comparisons yet no one could get hold of one.
what are peoples expectations for the 5090?
Associate
i dont think so, the 5090 will just sell by itself, reviews are more relevant for midrange cards where the consumer has too many options and may need to rely on expert guidance to figure out the nuances

the benchmarks for B100 showed a ridiculous uplift in performance to the tune of 80%+ over the last generation.. granted most of it is due to tensor cores, so i am expecting a minimum of 30% in pure raster performance, but theres been news about jensen cutting the die size or activating a lower number of SMs on the 5090, still 30% looks reasonably conservative
regarding price 1.8k looks likely (FE MSRP)..
energy consumption: well theres not much respite here, no big breakthroughs expected
and i suppose there will be a couple of killer RT/DLSS features exclusive to the 50 series just because this is currently a hotbed for innovation, so makes it a fast moving target

as long as its not mine..A leg
MSI etc will do doubt be sold for 2250-2500
I paid 2100 for my suprim 4090 on release day and we had loads of inflation since then.
I could afford a 5090 but doubt I will get one, 6090 will probably be close by time gta6 comes out on PC.
doubt theres anything else really before than to upgrade for

50% over 4090 on average.
Memory is 78% faster, all other specs seems to be about 33% faster so average it out at 50%.
Of course it will vary depending on settings and res. I'm expecting 4K to benefit the most simply because of the memory bandwidth.
