NVIDIA 5000 SERIES

There are rumors that a lot of shops in Europe are only getting like 20 5080s each and some not even seeing any 5090s at all.
I do remember hearing last year that Nvidia had a massive faulty batch of Blackwells and had to redo the design really late into the whole process.


Jensen straight up says there was a design flaw and was only resolved late last year, and it affected production runs. I'm not surprised stock will be super low.
Rumour has it all the stock has gone to the US to beat Trump's tariff date with very little stock allocated to europe

Makes me wonder how that will affect AMD release and if they do well in Europe, they might get a very nice chunk of the market right under NVidia's nose. But, it's AMD so... I am expecting to be disappointed. :P
 
It’s actually a good card, maybe not so much at 4K but I’m half tempted to just skip the 50 series if I can’t get one at launch and rock the 4070 until 60 series if it’s October 2026. Hoping the real benchmarks give some more confidence, but feels like 50 series is just a stop gap until a newer architecture is released.
I was just being sarcastic mate. No offense lol.
 
As expected. And considering what actual street prices will be, it's a dire price/performance improvement. I see moving to a 5090 if money is literally no object, you have no other hobby to sink the extra ~£500 into, and you ignore the consumer-deleterious price increase (still, there's going to be a lot of frotting of hands trying to rationalize this move for people), but virtually no reason to "upgrade" from 4-series for anything under ...90.

The midrange is going to be a soft target for AMD. They best better deliver on pricing there with RDNA 4.
