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

Thanks for the MSRP(+£200) pricing, super appreciated

Usually I defend ocuk. But what happened today was shambolic and disgusting. Turns out today the other place was not the enemy. They actually honoured their pricing.

Looks like brand loyalty and shop loyalty has gone boobies up these days.

I bet they'd try and get away with giving you a 5080 first.

They'd give you a 5070 and point to uncle Jensen's PowerPoint.

How many silly sausages sold their 4090's thinking they were gonna get a 5090 today and now are stuck with integrated graphics i bet their is a few.

If they can afford a 5090 chances are they have a back up spare.

Happens every generation. Every time without fail the muppets make a reappearance.

I was kinda shocked at the difference, we're not talking £20-£30. OCUK are much more expensive. So glad I got a pre-order on the other site, £140 is a significant saving.

I was shocked too, I ended up preordering a 5080 that was only £65 more than the FE.

That very strongly suggests the retailers are paying more than the MRSP for them from the suppliers and distributors, and that the MSRP was a fantasy like the 30 series cards etc.

So they’re all ripping each other off, then just passing it on to the customers, starting at the top of the chain with Nvidia.

Nice.

I actually feel like the AIBs are the losers in this whole thing. EVGA leaving was an early sign of that. The price differences between retailers shows they were adding various degrees of markup.

One UK shop didn't have a single 5080 over £1500, even the Astral was less than that.

I briefly mentioned this in the Radeon 9070 thread, but I'll stick my neck out and say it here...

Given the poor reviews/reception, I can see the 5080 sales rate being pretty mediocre once stock stabilizes... IF AMD can deliver a compelling card that sits between the 5070 Ti and 5080 and squeezes them both.

In that scenario, I'd bet we'll see a 5080 Super with 24GB RAM and +20% more cores (i.e., heavily cut down GB202) at around $1,200 within 6-9 months.


[Edit] And the "so what" for me, is that I'd be interested in a 5080 series card, but no way is that going to be the current vanilla card at $1,000!

Totally agree.

and the 4090 missed out of a 40980ti

do you guys think the 5090 will have a ti?

Maybe a 5080ti on the GB202, that said I can see Nvidia moving to 3nm sooner rather than later.

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

Looks like quite a few of these have actually sold - I hope it's actually bots that have been screwed and not innocents that have overlooked the description. I wonder if there would be any comeback. Feels like the wild west, no way I would feel comfortable selling or buying one of these cards on there.

Edit: Looked into it and it's pointless. Happened with the PS5 and it's against their policy so it isn't going to hurt scalpers, they'll just get refunded. I also suspect most of the people buying them are desperate innocents and not even bots in the first place.

Since there’s no more 4090s, if someone RMA’d a 4090 would they have to give you a 5090 because it has to be an equal or better card?

Where I am they have to either:

1) Fix my 4090

If they cannot fix it then :

2) Replace it with a new 4090

If they cannot replace it then:

3) They issue a refund for the purchase price




So I'm either going to get a 4090 back or I will get my money back, they will never give me a weaker GPU

They’d give you a 5070 as according to Nvidia that’s 4090 performance.

Oh great they’re in stock all day then I get home and the only one for sale is £1699

 

[XeNoNF50]

Even that bloke on youtube Bang4buck pc gamer didn't manage to get one that's a turn up for the books he was adamant a few days ago that he was going to get one today.

Turns out these GPUs are not bang4buck

Can AIB manufacturers aside from MSI and ASUS please sample their cards to reviewers. Keen to see how some of the Zotac and Gigabyte cards perform. No stock to give to reviewers I guess. Dark times.

 

[Sin_Chase]

All the performance of all of the cards will be in within a few % of one another (Likely <2-3%). The only thing you are getting different between them is aesthetics, temps and noise.

I know, but it's nice to see how they stack up and differ. It doesn't always carry across from one gen to the next that the same specific model is still a good card, e.g., 4090 TUF to 5090 TUF is a good card.
