Amazing! Get this installed and share your experiences
Not sure I’ve seen the 5090 Tuf land anywhere else yet.
Ashame and super inefficient. That's so much packaging for a packet of Haribo.My expensive Haribo arrived
Congrats. As my pops used to tell me as a kid while we were sharking in the billiards hall: kiss her sweet on the break, and she'll treat you nice all night long.

Nope it means the cost of GPUs will be passed onto us as the US market is their primary target region
Impossible. It was £3k profit or keep.
I too was surprised. Maybe the margins will be too low and he'll keep it now.

Haha thanks lads. Friday morning I'll make the final decision. Got two days off so some serious gaming time if I choose to keep.
In all honesty i hope you do, we buy it to enjoy it and i hope you do.
I think you should put the price back up. I wouldn't budge from the £3k profit. It's the sweet spot!

Got a meeting at work about the future of my job Thursday, so there's a few factors at play. But yeah I've been hyped about it for so long, despite what some may think. Wouldn't have the awesome rig I have if I wasn't passionate about the hobby.

In terms of selling price, volume of sales or both?

I do think with my case and possible early Astral adopters the decision is a lot harder, because they are so much rarer and so more valuable.
If it was an FE I had or any other card where it felt more "sensible" to keep I wouldn't of even posed myself the question.
In terms of across the wider spectrum I think it depends how much supply dries up over this Chinese holiday. It seems impossible to speculate how much was actually in transit during this time. 5080's looking around feel like they are selling slowly already, they will drop for sure.
4 still sold today so far going for £3500- £3700 so yeah dropped from £4000 but still a ridiculous amount more than it should be . I see someone has got hold of an Astral ( apparently camped all night for it
) that is listed on there with current bids up to £4000.... oh and a pre-order for one at £3800 , the desperation is real
