Just made some enquiries, major retailers, they are all abiding by the 2pm release time
Some of them are doing a buy on premises, que system, some of them online only, non of them will do FE cards, looks like thats reserved for Nvidia, watch dat website crash like mad, and i dont think they are abiding by the 2pm order thing along with earths lungs, thats only for the resellers, i think they will start either tonight or tomorrow morning.
Based on numbers I also think there will be plenty of opportunity to buy your card of choice, you will have hours to decide.
Just make sure you got that £2000 or £1000 ready to leave your pocket, and prepare for buyers remorse, if you cant handle it you cant cry on the forums like I did when I bought a £1450 2080ti 5 months before the 3080 was released for £699, I wish I could find that thread, I said Nvidia should buy back every 2080ti because the 3080 was faster and cheaper. hahaha

There was a review I saw that showed production level benchmark on it and it was amazing!
I'll try and dig it out later and send you
Tomorrow
I pay for the adobe suite and used premiere for many years but much prefer Resolve for the last few years.

I use Adobe
if your using gaming cards for professional workloads your better off with professional cards, but that will cost BIG money, if its taking you 2 hours to render a scene then the 5090 might do it a bit faster but dont expect to shave off massive time, the 4090 is the only capable card to use with professional software, anything lower is just crap, so if your happy with coughing up a few extra grand to get the 5090 then go for it... plus Ive seen many independent studio all use gamer cards for professional use
Nvidia A40 and above are for the big boys, or you could wait to see what Nvidia releases in April, there might be a lovelace 96GB A6000
Not sure where you get the idea that people will have hours to decide, loads of resellers have already said they have limited stock and expect to sell out in minutes.
Also the FE edition is only via 1 reseller, so of course others wont be selling the FE and from previous generations they sell at the same time as everyone else.
Yeah its sad, but people on older gpu’s looking to upgrade this year will see big gains.
Sadly its the 40 series buyers that will suffer
Thats a whole issue on its own, god
Seems like the 5080 was as underwhelming as everyone was expecting. Derp.
The Optimum review was interesting, made the (obvious) point that MFG is gimped because of the lower starting frame rates so not possible to get 5090 style implementation with fewer 'fake frames' - there is a latency compromise. So that dampens that sweetener. On the other hand, on average 70% faster than a 3080, so not terrible from that side... but nowhere near as juicy as the 3090 -> 5090 route (which is >100%). Then again, the 3080 and 3090 were much closer performing than other gens.
Seemingly one to miss for 4080+ series owners though... a wide miss.
