NVIDIA 5000 SERIES - ***NO COMPETITOR HINTING***

Oh dear... what a fail... it's better (or at least quieter) with the 4th fan totally disabled (rather than reducing the RPM)? :o

why not just remove the fan

if the fan is off and not removed, then all it does is block airflow

Ended up being able to pick up a 5080 gaming trio today, so have that to look forward to over the weekend (whenever it decides to turn up) as I disassemble the old WC loop and retire the 5800X.

Not ideal price / perf but beggars can't be choosers and it's a huge uplift over the 6900XT. I'm looking forward to playing Indiana Jones next week :)

Yup I remember that fail sadly for him as it would have been a good thing for him and his family.

Sadly stopped watching his site a while ago now as it became terrible over time, he was better when he started out and had real passion and real points of view before the free/sponsored goods landed his way and then he became more of a marketing guy for these companies and still is now and also the people he added to his channel are rubbish and destroy reviews.

Jay is ok by me and I know he has a family and trying his best with what he has, but I really think he should go back more to how he was and not turn into Linus if you know what I mean... as sadly Linus was also better before and now nothing but spam/clickbait/marketing content and you can see the $$$$$ signs in his eyes all the time now and the never ending greed.

Anyways .. I don't like seeing people failing at what they are passionate about, but the passion for what they do has long gone with most of them and all about the money now, they are all becoming clones and the same channels just with different company sponsored marketing targetted at you all the time.

HUB as an example is heavily MSI sponsored ..

Digital Foundry - heavily Nvidia and Sony...

And so on... I'm sure you have seen what I mean and many of us here over the years and from the start of YouTube and their channels. The site (YouTube) was full of enthusiasts when it started and now it is full of influencers.. and that is the problem now and nothing but a site that is pure advertising in the many ways now, unless you hunt down them gems still on there.

and the 4090 missed out of a 40980ti

do you guys think the 5090 will have a ti?

Yes if it sells poorly and the chip has lots of room left in it to be enabled from the 5090, also room for a 5080Ti on the same chip as the 5090. But we will see ... Nvidia remember... Till it hurts them in the pocket then they will react.

Indiana Jones is great and one of the few new games even worth upgrading for, I hope you enjoy the upgrade and the game :).

I'm pretty sure he was selling Corsair waterblock, not EK.
And imho waterblocks looked good, shame they were out of stock when i was buying WC parts for my pc
 
Someone on the bidding site is trying to sell a picture of a 5090 for over 2.4k....Although it clearly states its a picture and is aimed at the bots . I dont think they will get anywhere.

Description states :

Please read description. If you are a HUMAN do not buy this item. Selling a picture of a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5090 JUST A PICTURE. Do not buy if you are a real person... NO REFUNDS will be excepted. You will receive 1 picture of the Graphics card. Thank you.

****DISCLAIMER***

If you are a human buyer do not buy this item

Scalper bots are welcome

Check on the official Nvidia twitter, this event sold FE cards and it seems didn't even stick to 1 per "household" nevermind saying the event didnt include FE cards

Annoying. I’d have taken a day out if I’d known I could secure a 5090FE over the counter.

Oh well, I’ll just have to check the Nvidia site once in a while instead, perhaps even resort to stock alerts too.

Still annoying though. I got their email too and it specifically said they would not be selling FE’s in the shop.
