NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - OFFICIAL PRE-ORDER THREAD!

Or even £700 for a ROG card, with a shonky warranty. No thanks.

Who has the best warranty? I haven't had experience with any of them.

I’m not sure it’s clear cut tbh. You’ll hear bad things about all AIB companies. Sorry to mot be more helpful. Perhaps there is a thread on it in this forum.

That's on the low end of where a 4090 ranks against a 4080, which you'd expect given that Time Spy is a 1440p raster-only benchmark. In heavier games at 4K (and especially with ray tracing enabled) where the 4090 can really stretch its legs, the difference is usually in the 35-40% range (and occasionally even higher).

Granted, not everybody is playing at 4K, but I feel like if you're in the market for a £1000+ GPU then you're much more likely to be.

Fair enough yeah. Timespy extreme the gap is 35% so yeah much bigger.

And in speedway which is the RT benchmark I believe (?) the gap is 42%.

It will be interesting to see where these come out on reviews. I agree it's a 4k card either the 5080 and definitely the 5090. I'm a VR user myself so similar to or greater than 4k level but don't care about RT and frame gen is no use at all in Vr.

Most vendors will be getting stock or have actual stock. The thing is Nvidia controls when they can list and sell. They are just placing it ready for when it goes live and then they don;t have to make a whole new page as the first few days is when they will shift the most new units. All Etailers will be going live at 2pm on Jan 30th. My advice to you is make sure you have multiple web pages open with your details already stored. Everyone will be clamouring to get one. You, bots for scalpers, companies and next doors dog.

Most websites will slow down to a crawl and I do literally mean a crawl. My plan is to have sever etailer pages open. I hope I can secure one from OCUK as they have been fantastic for me in the past and for quite a while so I would like to keep that going. Thing is I need 2 for my pc's so I have to get one from somewhere else. The only place I wouldn't get one is from nvidia official partner. I had a very very bad experience with them when I ordered the 980 or was it 980 ti Kingpin card many years ago. I did not open the case for the card and they refused me returning it as I wanted something else instead. I had to get the manager/owner involved before anything positive happened and that was after quite a few weeks going back and forth with them. Even if I couldn't get a 5090 from anywhere else and only they had it with plenty of stock I will not buy from them as a matter of principal and I like to be that azz.

Founders edition is only available from 2 places. One is Nvidia the other is a competitor of OCUK they are the official partner. So if someone buys a founders and it not from Nvidia they it can only be from one etailer

Thank you. I'll check the other competitor. I'm only interested in the Founders card.

Either that TUF price is very wrong, or the Proshop prices are very wrong. I suspect Proshop is wrong, tbh. These prices are awful. That Palit Gamerock PCB will be reference, so by no means a high end card.

if this is true then there will be a mad rush for the FE cards as these are confirmed at below 2 grand, the high end cards such as Strix Suprim and Amp extreme is what I'm looking at but if the FE edition is 500 quid less then thats a no brainer

Though during the 20 30 and 40 series I got the Amp Extreme model because of the solid 5 year warranty and Zotac having one of the fastest clock rates.
