NVIDIA 5000 SERIES

[Vertigo]

Was going to say bus isn't problem here since there are 3GB modules and they are already used in the new laptops so it is just Nvidia being Nividia.

Well I'm not sure what supply of the 3GB modules is like right now so maybe they're keeping them for the laptops initially.

I agree though it is probably largely product placement, allowing for a 24GB 5080 Ti/SUPER variant later, especially now the 5090 has made space by moving up to 32GB, again dictated by its 512-bit bus.

Just to compare the 4090 was getting 23-24fps max settings then. So what % increase is that.

Around +20%

Probably if you start modding heavily.

I mean I know not many bought that sku but hard to talk of the topic. @ICDP have you monitored that on yours at all?

 

[Combat squirrel]

What resolution?

4k - runs absolutely fine, AMD AFMF2 on I presume, looks great, plays smooth, im not going to pause a game, get a magnifying glass out and try and work out a micro almost none perceptible difference in IQ when if its that hard to tell its not worth worrying about.

It was already rolled out to some 4xxx series cards. Anything with H++ labelling is 12V-2x6.

The new spec connector will undoubtedly feature on all 5xxx series cards.

Ah ok, never realised that, presumed all 40-series cards were still using the original 12VHPWR connector.

We'll have to wait and see I say. With rtx3090 and 4090, it was not a bad idea to have at least 2x headroom on your GPU TDP because both of those GPUs liked to produce transient spikes that would for a few microseconds cause the GPU to draw double its power rating

If transients still happen on the 5090, you're looking at Transient spikes of close to 1200w, and if the PSU protection kicks in it could shut down the PC

That's my fear sticking with a 1000W PSU.

i use a 3080 currently and it simply cant do 4k and a high fps in any big titles

6800XT is beasting it - abit faster than 3090 in several titles these days - fine wine drivers, must admit I've never got so much value from a card than a 6800XT 16gb - it eventually beat out Nvidia's old flagship.

Approx. 20%.

I'm pretty disappointed with this release, FG is okay in a few games but ***** in the majority. 16gb VRAM on the 5080 is rubbish too.

All hype, nothing like the hype delivered. Again.

 

[mrk]

Was there people on 4080's complaining they ran out of vram as this is getting interesting?

Don't know, but the same games out today easily using 12GB VRAM at 4K were not out during the 4080 early days.

The ATX 3.0 spec is built around such power excursions on modern cards. I wouldnt worry about it and certainly would not recommend speccing a PSU to include the TDP of the card as EXTRA headroom.

You may wish to consider your position on an ancient PSU.

Anyone notice OCUK's guesses at the prices? Very wrong? (obviously divide by 10 first)

My Corsair RM1000X isn't ATX 3.0 spec though, so where does that leave me ? The transient power spikes @Grim5 mentioned still concern me somewhat.

Each price has one extra zero. Remove one zero before the decimal to see the real price

Blame currency conversion rates ... what can you do ?

R u joking

 

[Poggers]

Any idea what time of the day the preorders on the 30th January will begin?

 

[Curlyriff]

Around +20%

Yeah so not really that solid tbh considering the wattage increase etc then. This is very much a refresh of the 40 series when you break it down.

New Shiny GPU's Coming Soon - Ordering Process to guarantee highest queue position

Silly question but I have never ordered (or tried to order) a founders edition of Nvidia cards but will they be available at OC as well as the other board partner ones? Via Nvidia shop only.

forums.overclockers.co.uk

So today see's the announcement of the incredible NVIDIA RTX 50 series graphics cards comprising of:

• Pricing shown prior to launch is inflated and TBC
• FE (Founders Cards) are exclusively available from NVIDIA ONLY

And I still don't get how people can be so hyped for such a product...

I was instantly disappointed the moment I saw that Far Cry 6 graph. In all honesty I'm surprised Nvidia even put it out there.

Nvidia just had another Fermi moment and AMD is nowhere to be found to take advantage of it.

575w, $2k price tag, 2+ years of R&D for 20% performance increase? LOL

I hope when the dust settles people can digest the magnitude of this epic failure.
