Poll: BROWSE THE NVIDIA RTX 4000 SERIES AT OcUK !!

[House]

I'm so out of touch with GPU brands, was EVGA for the last 3 cards and Asus before that and i think gainward before that.

I am aware of the Asus tax reputation and I still bare a grudge with Gigabyte over a terrible customer support experience in the early 2000's (once bitten blah blah) never used any of the others.

Of the brands out there what's the recommendation? Talking about customer service and warranties I have no plans to strip the card for watercooling.

This is definitely going to be a repeat of Turing

I’m wondering when pre-built systems start appearing with 4090’s an an option

 

[Shampoo]

Buy a console or be happy playing older games or less demanding titles, or do both!

I've got a PS5, but always preferred using the PC. These prices tho. GPU's aren't making much of an argument for themselves from a value proposition. Even the 'lower end' £900+ quote is parody.

So far Nvidia have sold two 4080 12Gb editions.

But worse..

I’m sure Gibbo said on the 12th at 2pm along with the card launches.

i have no ill will towards retailers, but with Nvidia's whole attitude and approach to this generation even if i was in desperate need for a new card (my 3080 is still doing me proud) and had infinite wealth (i very much haven't), i'd have trouble pulling the trigger on any of these offerings through not wanting to feel complicit. you're getting gaped as an independant consumer while also making it worse for everyone else.

hopefully this is turing mkII and we get a 3000 series style course correct after their stock implodes again.

There were miners to actually sell to then.

Even then they had to launch the super cards.

Nvidia share price over the last 5 days has been interesting.

EVGA is finished, I reckon they made so much money selling to the miners at extortionate prices that when Nvidia said that they can only sell the 40 series at RRP they jumped ship in anger, that han guy would rather sink his company and sack his workforce than be told he cant monopolize the gpu market, in this battle Evga vs Nvidia, Nvidia are the good guys....

I hope not I don't want to see interest rates like that or buying a GPU will be the least of my worries.
14% base rate?

I'm sure I heard a 1000w sff PSU is coming

 

[Daytrader]

Well, i have read that even a 850w is ok for a 4090, is this incorrect then ?

Depends on the rest of your system. 850W can be enough if you aren't running a 200W+ CPU and don't overclock the 4090.

Ah i see, makes sense.

Always been a 1000w SFX PSU... https://silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/power-supplies/SX1000Platinum/

ATX 3.0 platinum SFX 1100w and 1300w confirmed by thermaltake and coolermaster

 

[uscool]

Make sure you can keep the new cards cool in small builds and make sure they fit

 

[hairyfeet]

Patient enough to wait, especially in the current climate.
I think the budget cards (coming later) are a dark horse as well
