CES 2025 AMD & Nvidia Keynote Live Chat [06/01/25]

Do we know of any brands other than Aorus doing cars with waterblocks pre installed?

I've seen a Asus one.

I'll doing a round up thread of all the different partner models if it hasn't been done by someone else later.

 

[RavenXXX2]

Really? that's stupid

Nvidias way of keeping AIBs sweet after the evga fall out. No FE competitor at MSRP.

 

[Grim5]

I think its time to fish out my Nvidia series progression chart.

3070 was there or thereabouts with the 2080Ti in raw performance.

4070 was 3080 level of performance.

If the 5080 is equal to the 4090 it should be doing about 30,000 timespy score at the $1000 dollar point.

You can plot the 5090 as well, it's timespy score will be around 38k

 

[aeropars]

Any idea what time they will go on sale on the 30th?

For just the one model? Hmm.

 

[JediFragger]

A question that will be asked many many times over the coming days. 2pm GMT.

its 1939 on the nvidia website for an FE 5090. So not quite $ for£ but not as good as it should be

But not that far off. If you've spent any time in the States you know that prices shown never include tax; you find that out when you get to the till!

Doing a quick conversation and adding tax comes to ~£1900.

Then add £100 - 250 for custom PCBs with better cooling. £500 if you want an ASUS Strix.

Of course! Good to see you've been paying attention for the last few years.

I feel like the biggest winners here will be people who manage to pick up a 4090 for a song from people panic selling theirs after that presentation. 5070 l 4090 performance is a heck of an image to be putting out there.

5070 is 4090 when u add dlss4 frame gen stuff to it

 

[Cosmic Schwung]

Yeah. Looking at the relative performance charts I'm really not that excited for the 5090 now. Not a big fan of frame gen, but maybe MFG irons out some of the issues.

Different cooling. Not better.

No sign of cheap 4090's yet. I would say threshold is sub £800?

It depends where you are updating from? for me a 3090

 

[Cosmic Schwung]

Sounds about right. Needs to be a good bit under the 5080's price given how close in performance they seem to be.

For sure, it'll be a big leap for anyone not already using a 4090. For people who do have a 4090, it just doesn't seem worthwhile for anyone but the mrks of this world who want every last bit of power.

 

[danlightbulb]

CEX are still paying £1039 cash for them, so will need that to fall back before they get any cheaper on the open market.

5070 is 4090 when u add dlss4 frame gen stuff to it

Then 4090 users can use DLSS and frame gen themselves and then it isn't correct

They cant use flss4 frame gen. oist only avsilable on the 50 series

I saw one sell on ebay this morning for 800 but most are around 11/1200
