NVIDIA 5000 SERIES

That's astoundingly mediocre for a 2-year+ generational upgrade.

I'm not sure how it's going to do that much better at 4k, maybe 5-6% due to mem bandwidth.

4080 and 4080 Super owners rejoice. Those looking to "upgrade" just saved money.

9070xt may actually compete with this thing.

Yes a marginal increase if any at 4K. But even 10% - 15% over a 4080 means it is ~90% of a 4090. So 3000 series owners do still get a very nice upgrade for significantly less than a 4090 cost two years ago.

This is not me saying it is a great GPU. It is what a 60Ti should be and all GPUs are massively overpriced.
 
RTX 5080 looks quicker (slightly) for the same price as outgoing 4080 Super

In a way, for people upgrading from older than 30 series it’s as good as the 4080 super if not slightly better and for the people on the 40 series their wallets can rest easy for now :p

Roll on the official reviews

AIB 4080S were as low as £900 until recently, good luck finding an AIB 5080 under £1200
 
I hate being a doomsayer, but the line up is looking like...

- Worst on average generational performance uptick in the history of graphics cards (by good margin)
- Very low performance/power improvement
- Negligible price/performance improvement: you're basically paying the same money for the same performance
- Above RRP pricing nearly across the board
- Extremely meager launch supply

Did I miss anything? I suppose if you had no graphics card whatsoever, this is a marginal improvement.

Any one else heard about Chinese deep seek AI obliterating western efforts at Ai and wondering how it might impact Nvidea's pricing? I mean if gamers actually didn't buy the new gen they'd have to lower prices under these circumstances right?


Edit: Damn just saw the thread

nah, people will have plenty of time to buy a card of their choice from a retailer of their choice, the retailers are all stocked up and as long as your happy parting with £2000 - £3000 for a 5090 I'm optimistic the early adopters will be able to place an order

Based on my experience with the 30 and 40 series release

I dont see why the 50 series should be any different, and this time a lot of people are happy with their current 40 series ten thousand dollar command centres,

And the cost of living crisis for many people, remember guys, paying your mortgage and food bills is more important than a graphics cards.
Injecting the copium straight into my veins :cry:

Yes we heard, no it won’t make for more or cheaper GPUs for gamers. Especially not from Nvidia.
 
Someone just bought a 4080 trio for £650 on MM, this guy is going to enjoy the reviews today.
I suppose the 5000 series has just made the used 4090 prices go up.

I really wish I’d held off selling my 4090. I could have got more for it, or just bloody kept it.
Not everyone is comfortable in buying a used pc component, especially a gpu.

And to see the prices of a used gpu being over 1k as well is shocking as well.

Anyways, even Samsung and apple still keep selling older models once there new flagship is out. Why can't Nvidia do that.

Heck you can still even buy a amd 7800X3D cpu as well brand new...

None of this is untrue of course. Curious how much faster the new dlss model runs on 50 series vs 40 series. Yes the jump in pure raster is poor, but given you'll be using dlss a lot of the time i wonder what the difference in "real use" cases is like.
