NVIDIA 5000 SERIES

[TNA]

So basically a mixed bag. Decent in some games, disappointing in others.

Had it come in at the same price as the 4090 then it would not be slated as much (though still expensive).

But if you have to have the best..

Quite glad it's so bad actually. Keeping my 7900xtx and will wait for 6000 series. Saved £3k on not getting a 5090 and new monitor. .

Looks like coil whine is back on the menu lads! So exciting.

it went away?

The power usage of this card is stupid

I'll look forward to the people who have these cards bitch fight over AMD/Intel power CPU consumption.

The power usage of this card is stupid

I just looked at the power charts on TPU for the first time having just been concentrating on pretty much everything else. Holy smokes, 560w to 590w

Wow, just wow. FE is so loud at load. 5090 Astral it is, easy decision!

weird, hardware unboxed couldn't hear it over case fans.

Not looking like a great leap for mankind is it.

What? That doesn't even make any sense and I've not seen such claims - it has more CUDA cores, how could it be slower in raster? I think you might be confusing it with 5080.

Nope. on reddit (namely the Nvidia subreddit) people were claiming it would be slower than the 4090 in raster because it all relies on Dlss now.
Ofc it's nonsense, but there were many people all claiming the same nonsense, but they did.
Maybe the confusion was because it has a slower clock speed, but obv that means nothing when it's a new generation of cards etc...

I have never heard my 3080 fans, this seems very similar volume.

Watching HUB first, then will go to tech Jesus

They're being a bit brutal. One thing I think they haven't spotted is that the 1% lows at 4k for the 5090 are often the average fps of the 4090.

it went away?

it’s here to stay. Lots of reviews mentioning it. AIBs will be the same no doubt.

HUB:
"After a little over 2 years we're seeing no improvement in cost per frame"

 

[TNA]

HUB conclusion it is a disappointing product.

I agree based on what I have seen.

Still the best though. A must buy for those that only run the best and don't want to be locked out of the latest tech. Oh and 32GB VRAM. Only way to get that too

A surprise? It is Nvidia

Hell with it. Just buy it. 32GB VRAM, latest and greatest and big boost in many latest games!

Hardware Canucks may have found something interesting.

We found some behaviors which necessitated more testing & changed our conclusion. Stay tuned for some interesting testing.

Oh, I thought you meant people not redditors... Very different bread that!

Ofc it's nonsense, but there were many people all claiming the same nonsense, but they did.

5070>4090!

Maybe the confusion was because it has a slower clock speed, but obv that means nothing when it's a new generation of cards etc...

Ignoring everything else, a bit slower clock with much larger number of CUDA cores or just much larger chip size, should be enough to know raster would be faster...

 

[Curtis vincent]

Seems like 5090 with x4 FG on has slightly less latency than 4090 with x2 FG. I'm guessing due to the higher base FPS

 

[harmattan]

Power draw is actually higher than I expected and runs closer to announced TDP than 4090. TechPowerUp got close to 575w in a few games

Is this a GTX 480? In some respects, yes. Hotter, wattage hog, more expensive than last gen, and super low stock at launch. But it is the indisputably fastest card, so there's that.

 

[Glanza]

Sticking with the 4090 after watching the reviews.
