NVIDIA 5000 SERIES

Kind of weird how he’s asking people to sell him AIBs at the end of that vid… I guess he isn’t getting many (any?) preview cards.

That, plus he said in a recent video that he feels more impartial if using a customer's card vs a review sample.

5080 will be a decent upgrade from 3090, without ‘busting the bank’ like a 5090 upgrade.

If you have a high refresh rate 4k monitor, you can potentially benefit from the MFG tech on the 50 series. If you don’t have a high refresh rate 4k monitor or have no interest in the MFG you would get less of the benefits.

Maybe wait for reviews and see.

Ok here is what i will do. i wil try and get 5090 and run it at 450w max

Yep cut 150w power for 6-8% less performance. Gap between 5090 and 4090 is so narrow already though, I can't understand why anyone would pay $2.5k for a 5090 and then willingly drop it's performance by 8%

Yeah I honestly don't get powerlimiting tbh, like it fully depends how much you game, but you'll only ever consume that high end if you're playing a game that maxes it out, if you play like myself which is around an hour or two a day, that's barely anything on the energy bill imo.

 

[DizzyZ]

SO what would u do in my case with a 3090? wait for 6090?

Is the 5080 100% better than the 3090?

Get a used 4090 if you can cop one at a decent price

Bruh, he's outed basically everyone in the industry at this point, all the companies hate him lol, so I'm not surprised he's not getting any review units.

Na i dont want used. i want brand new. If there is a 4090 brand new for 1.6k i would but there is none

God I haven't seen this dude in years, forgot he existed lol

Asus 5090 Astral OC (the one that costs 2.8k) gaming power draw 621w and only gets you an extra 5% average performance at 4k

Summary of the Suprim:

- much cooler (20 degree cooler memory temps)
- quieter (but more fan speed)
- more power

1min into the HUB video and that GPU is ridiculous. It's actually embarrassing it has come to this tbh.

It's only a matter of time before a reddit post pops up with a picture of a melted connector.

Super interesting from TechPowerUp:

Physical Design, Heat & Noise
The ASUS RTX 5090 Astral OC is a big and heavy graphics card and that's fine I think. If you're buying an RTX 5090 you are aware that for good cooling you'll have to go big. If you don't, then the dual-slot Founders Edition is for you. I really like the physical construction of the Astral, the all-metal cooler design feels really awesome, also thanks to the matte surfaces all around. The color theme looks brilliant, especially paired with the highlights. Unfortunately, out of the box, the card doesn't run much quieter than the tiny dual-slot NVIDIA Founders Edition: 39.3 dBA vs 40.1 dBA—something you'd never notice subjectively. Temperatures on the other hand are greatly improved, by 22°C. While that is certainly an amazing achievement I feel like a more balanced configuration with lower noise would have been better. ASUS includes a dual-BIOS feature with their card. The second BIOS runs a more relaxed fan curve, but it's not much quieter and achieves 36.5 dBA with 70°C. Sure, good temperature, but isn't the point of a "quiet" BIOS that it's quiet, even if temperatures are higher? MSI's Suprim lineup does much better noise-wise, with temperatures that aren't that much higher.

Our apples-to-apples cooler comparison test reveals that the ASUS Astral cooler is NOT the most powerful air cooling solution tested today. MSI Suprim's cooler is a little bit better, probably because it has 11 heatpipes vs 8 on ASUS and less space taken up by the cooler shroud, so the heatsink is bigger. Compared to the Founders Edition, at the same heat load and noise level, the ASUS cooler runs a staggering 18°C cooler.

You seem to have missed out the the most important point.

But possibly easier to buy than the 5090 FE, at least in a few months time when stock 'normalises'.

MSI always do well with the suprim.

Well, I think that’s sealed the deal for me that the Suprim is the one I’ll go for.

The FE editions will be purchased by scalpers and probably half the SCAM staff have their hands on one already.
You will only get an FE if you wait 12 months or you are willing to pay £3000 for one on eBay.

The higher the price the more chance you will have getting one - I am going to try and get a Zotac as reckon they will be very close to MSRP and no issues with my Zotac 4090.
