NVIDIA 5000 SERIES

Watched the Gamers Nexus review, card looks like a beast!

How many people have got/are planning to get a 5090? I have a friend thinking of upgrading from his 4090, watching the review I think he might be better off holding onto his card for the time being instead of spending another £1,000 for around 30% more performance.
 
since Asus has priced the 5090 astral so ridiculously and its not even best performing of the lot will try and get a founders edition out of principle, I am not paying extra $800 over founders edition for barely no performance difference Asus can - you get the rest :D . But I am going to water cooling this round and also would not recommend 600w card throwing out that much heat unless you have excellent air flow. So how on earth is water cooling going to be possible with FE given its motherboard design being segmented into several boards? Its going to be more tricky waterblock that's for sure.

When was the last we saw a huge jump in rasta performance between a 3090 and a 4090?

1080 Ti was 80% faster than 980 Ti and sometimes almost 2x as fast. The 4090 and 1080 Ti have been the biggest leaps for as far as I can remember in one generation.. I’d love a 4090 GPUs today are so powerful and unless you’re at 4K 144hz+ honestly even a 4080 will still last years

It's been gone over a few times in the thread already but this is no longer an issue if your base frame rate is high. There is no significant latency gain with the new DLSS4 frame gen:

The compromise is an increase in artefacts in very fast moving objects. So it's not perfect, but feedback has been positive - I'm yet to hear any reviewer say it's not worth it.

I just hope reviewers make it abundantly clear that this feature is only viable with already decent framerates.
 

I mean, I know we likely already realized this stuff but.. This guy's been fairly good at data consolidation/analysis so figured he's worth sharing.
Plus he got me to thinking about where the 5080 will stack up in the lineup of 4080 / Super / 4090 / 5090 ... and it looks like it'll be significantly slower than the 4090, and only giving us 5-10% (10% is best case scenario) over the 4080 super. It's basically just confirming our earlier predictions that the 5090 will be the only card that actually has any real uplift :/

(Also, pretty much confirming our suspicions that the 5080 is really just a mislabelled 5070)

I'm a realist. You're living in cloud cuckoo land if you think you can grab a 4090 for £600 this year.

I didn't say that, someone else did. I'm just saying I wouldn't pay more than 8-900 quid max for a second hand 4090 and as I said, give it a couple of months and the used market will reflect actual value. People paying £1500 for a used 4090 right now are crazy :cry:

Looking at the specifications of the 4090/5090 and seeing the performance lift of that card, you only have to look at the specs of the remaining announced 50 series cards to realise the rest of the lineup is going to be frankly really disappointing…

I think many will void their warranties and break their 5090 FE's trying to watercool :cry:

Wouldn't surprise me if 6090 slipped to Jan 2027. Nvidia are competing with themselves, and are taking longer between each generation.

That'd put it 2028 then. We're in 2025 now remember and the gen gap's already over 2 years... :p Plus next is a new node.
