NVIDIA 4000 Series

I can't believe it. I gave up trying to get a 4090 and ordered a 4080 yesterday and now the 4090 cards are in stock. Am i able to order a 4090 too? it says one 40 series card per person. Is it easy enough getting a refund?

My 4080 was dispatched today. Typical.
 
You might get away with it for the time being depending on your CPU , for reference i am using an overclocked 10900k and overclocked 4090FE , load of watercooling gear and during games at native 4K power usage is around 550 to 600w from the wall ... my PSU is a Corsair Hx1200i . What will catch you out is any transient spikes which could trip the psu, Upgrade wise i would use something like one of these ....



Yeah I did wonder if I'd get away with it but it'll be very borderline I think.

I'll almost certainly go Corsair again so I can re-use at least some of my custom cables, plus I already have a Cablemod 12VHPWR cable for it as I kind of knew this was going to happen :)

Just need to stop myself buying a damn AX1600i now!

If not in your basket, try clearing your browser cache and attempt again.
Or go the whole hog and download a new browser and repeat the purchase process via that instead?

Just check to make sure the new PSU is the same cable pin out as what you have to be safe :)


The Ax1600i is a stunning PSU just a bit overkill even for a 4090 unless you want to run 2 :cry:

At least you ended up with the 2nd best card or the 3rd best if you're in an AMD thread.

basket is empty...if i click on it, takes me to the homepage of the retailer..tried logging into account 1st and going back via fepartalert but same thing... guessing because I'm abroad till next week so probably locking me out because of that...can't exactly do it through vpn either as that's not allowed and blocks you...guess I'll be waiting again. Tad annoying though
edit..tried phone too..same thing

Yup. If you are abroad it won't let you.

No, you're up the creek I'm afraid.

Well that was kind of inevitable :D

I figured that, since I need a new PSU anyway and the AX is only £200 more than the HXi, if I'm spending at least £1830 on the GPU & PSU, I may as well spend another £200.

That's how I'm justifying it anyway lol
