Tbh. It’s probably my changing needs and interests…but the value isn’t there anymore for me. Gonna leave our machine as is with a 3080fe until my lad asks for some faster. Which I think will be a while based on the games that interest him.

I just play console now, it suits for me.

Might look again in a couple years.

A decent upper mid range card is still going to outperform console.. they're also still using CPUs from 2019, even the PS5 Pro. That's not to say they're bad by any means though, just lacking a bit in comparison.

There is no way it’ll be ‘worth’ a grand to the average bear.

But if you have a grand to burn, that’s a bit different.

Put another way, 5090 shouldn’t be for anyone looking at ‘value’ unless you’re an absolute die hard max performance gamer / worker / miner.

I know that which is why I did say “worth it to me”.

I have the cash but if the performance is nt there over the 5080 I won’t bother

I wonder how many 5090 FEs Nvidia hope to sell at £2k. Thats more than my mortgage payments by a couple of hundred!

Saying that people will lap it up at 2k and there won’t be any protest with peoples wallets.

It has to be something special to warrant a grand hike over the 5080 and I doubt it will be

Hopefully not many. :p as it's the first top end end card I plan to buy.
I know everyone is crapping on it, but I have been waiting years for an upgrade and want a fast GPU to pair with my 9800x3d. and 4090s are going for wel over 3 grand nowadays.
