NVIDIA 4000 Series

:p

I went and watched them. Circa 2006 :D
 
Well as of right now you have about 14 months to wait, Are you going to actually buy next gen or wait until Nvidia offer an upgraded GeForce Now sub ?



Far Cry with a blue man group skin :D

Is the latest rumours not that we'll see 50xx next year now?

Depends entirely on prices, I can see nvidia doing an ampere again given how poorly the 40xx have sold for gamers.

As it is, only game which is killing me at the minute is ark survival ascended but then it also runs like **** on a 4090, frame gen would be very nice here but obviously playing on pvp, you don't want any additional lag no matter how little might be added.

Everything else I'm playing still runs great on the 3080 @ 3440x1440, thank god for having a good quality upscaling solution!

Will they have tasted the high prices too long to discount 50 series? I think so. Crippled bus and cut down dies are likely to be part of their lower tiers again and only the 5090 will be worth it.

I suspect we'll see the 5080 matching a 4090 for £1k which will obviously look great value..... I could be tempted by a 4080 super if the rumoured price is true as 3080 is still selling for £350+so a 4080s for £700 would be rather nice! Hopefully a free game too to bring the price down further.
 
Will you be finally upgrading to a 4070ti Super 16gb for 30% uplift over your 3080 now that Nvidia is better value?
If I was interested in paying around £700-800 for a 30% upgrade I would have bought a 7900XT months ago.

I had up to £1000 ready for an AD102 card or equivalently performing AMD card but neither manufacturer met expectations so back in Jan I stuck it in BTC and currently I now have over 2k ready for next gen.

Nope, Still Q1-2 2025, Nvidia aren't in a rush, It's why they are releasing the Super refresh of the 4070, 4070 Ti and 4080 in Q1 next year but like I've said before I have an inkling it's going to be even more expensive than the 4xxx series.
 
TIL if you want a 500hz monitor or even higher refresh you have to use Windows 11 and it has to be up to date. Every version of windows before a recent update was released for 11, can not support 500hz displays

I didn't know windows had a refresh rate limit, never even considered it. The more you know...

Why does anyone want a 500Hz monitor? :D
