NVIDIA 5000 SERIES - ***NO COMPETITOR HINTING***

Im going to try for a FE then failing that an MSI suprim (either card on launch) and failing THAT, either one maybe 6 months from now when stock comes back (im hoping). My current card is multiple generations out, and whilst not made of money, id like to spend a bit more now on as high end as i can get, as its likely to be another decade or so before i upgrade again, so what i get now is not only to rag the backside out of todays games, but also still be able to creak along 10 years from now.
Playing on a 49in widescreen, mostly strategy (total war games, the whole lot) or CoD, is it worth getting the above or going for AMD equivalent? I dont play online so im not bothered about eleventy billion FPS, just something that gives good graphics now and will still work a decade from now.

you know if only AMD up'd their game and continued to rival Nvidia on the high end GPU market, I can remember 10/12 years ago or so the 7990s and the 7970s they were really good GPU's but for some reason they bowed out and now only make mid tier cards, its like they only want to concentrate on consoles, if they had a 4090/5090 equivalent then Nvidia wouldn't be standing where they are now, when a corporation has no competition that makes them greedy and dangerous for consumers. I'd say for someone to rival Nvidia GPUs will take years!

For now we are stuck with them, paying extortionate prices and literally fighting to give them our hard earned cash

All because we want a 5080/90 :cry::cry::cry:

I was watching Broken silicon and they were discussing why AMD has moved to UDNA so they can offer one architecture for Ai and to gamers, but it seems a bit nuts to me because like you say they suppling all the consoles so they should be focusing on making a gaming chip for consoles and laptops and ramping it up to desktops. They were sort of doing that with RDNA4 and then suddenly they change plans. They seem to lack a long term strategy and are just super reactive. I wouldn't be surprised if this launch delay is just so they can quickly make a multi frame gen technology.

Skipping this Nvidia generation altogether, at least I will have saved some money. Hopefully the 6000 Series brings something exciting.

The 6000 series will be a much better gen I think. Node change will change everything. This gen is a complete wash out IMO. Never seen such a dull 80 series card. Maybe the 2080 was the closest
 
this is the only generational uplift that's stayed on the same node isn't it? so no wonder this is like a ti / ti super in percentage improvement. They should have just called them 40 super super

These early leaked figures for the 5080 look so bad.

Unless people REALLY need a new card I would wait for the inevitable Ti which should at least give some more memory and a bit extra performance. 5080 looks like it has the potential to be the worst 80 series performance increase in recent memory.

The TI is gonna be priced at 1500 which is stupid
