NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - OFFICIAL PRE-ORDER THREAD!

I think I’ll be holding off for a while. I was underwhelmed with the reviews of the 5090 anyway - but just did my and my wife’s tax returns today.

I did my return first, and I’m due a small rebate of just under £3K, and I thought to myself, that’ll do nicely and pay for a 5090.

Then did my wife’s tax return - and she has a liability of just over £16K! Doh! I think that nice shiny graphics card is going to have to wait - not a massive hardship, having to run an ‘old’ 4090 for a while yet. The FOMO is subsiding a little…

That is true love.
 
no way!!! ive just clocked a big retailer pricing 5090s for 3 Grand lolz 3 grand!! jesus christ, that is some next level inflation busting crazyness pricing

Anyways those who really want a card im pretty sure you should be able to get one, as long as your happy parting with all that cash for a GPU, that extra 30% performance is deffo needed in your life.

It's a placeholder, like OCUK's 25 grand.

Why are you assuming it's 4090 owners who are wanting the 5090..?

It won’t be all obviously but a lot of the market for the halo cards is the folk who buy them every generation. They’re often the biggest spenders and want to stay at the top performance wise.

Can’t see the pull being as big this time around though as the 4090 was a huge leap over the 3090ti.

Wow who’s hoovered up the brand new 4090s or have they just stopped selling them on various sites.

I cant for life of me pay crazy money for a second hand 4090

Im ready to drop 1k on a 5090 hopefully stock will be ok in a month and silly prices settle a little

Gibbo, I'll chuck you an extra tenner and a go around the block in my VW golf if you put my name down for a 5090 :p

I’ve often wondered if @Gibbo gets bribed by people at times or at least they try.

I bet his inbox is full of people trying it on :cry:
