NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

[brostradamus]

How many years would we have to go back to when a GPU only cost about twice as much as your CPU, and a motherboard was about half the cost of your CPU?

i wont worry much abt it, gpus will be soon costing twice as much as a cpu..
lets not get into the details of the mechanism

 

[arknor]

I'll wait for decent availability/2nd hand ones to show up.

Jensens probably selling 99.9% of cards straight to datacentres like last time

I can all ready sense it with the AI crap they are starting to add to CPUs, and if Intel aren't competitive, Jensens aunt or whatever she is will start copying him with CPUs

 

[brostradamus]

Probably not wrong..

this seems to be incorrect, its supposedly a 2-slot card, back to the old ways, greta will approve

jensen outlawed the use of geforce drivers in datacenters, its part of the driver eula now.. he is killing it

Aren't use forgetting ocuk wee slice of the cake 2500. Maybe more I think..

 

[Pete Tong]

Spend over 2 grand on a single component to play games huh? Saying that I might get one just to have it.
I've thought about getting a console but who knows.

 

[hobib_ali]

Well consoles now cost £800+ (PS5 Pro with disc drive)

also I hear that the 50 series will release around Q4 2025

As Nvidia prioritising professional quadro cards before the consumer RTX cards

I mean the 40 series still has a lot of life left in it but looking at past releases the 5090 should have been available right now

 

[Pete Tong]

40series all out of stock on nvidias website. Well except the 4060

 

[chaparral]

what games are you early birds looking to play on your brand new 5090? years old titles?

I would be giving Quake 2 & Red Alert a go for sure if i was buying one

But may try something new like Half-life

Sorry mate. Your 4090 is running out of steam. Get 2K ready for papa Jensen

Unreal tournament 2004 set to ultra

Would need to try some racing games like Ultimate Race Pro / Redline racer / Screamer 2 / Midtown Madness

 

[Pete Tong]

Loved redline racer. Got the demo with my voodoo 2 then went into town to buy it. Downloaded all the modded bikes

 

[Nitefly]

I’m going to go for a high score on that ‘chrome can’t connect to the internet’ game.

 

[scubes]

The site will go down people trying to get one can't wait to see how much they are gonna cost ??

 

[brostradamus]

hmm.. given the recent developments in us, i guess finding a 5090 could become a lot tougher
does anyone know about the republican party's stance on china chip ban.. i am assuming they are pro-business

 

[BS Dave]

they'll probably be sending them to Russia first!!

 

[Stu999]

In time for GTA VI hopefully.

FAKE EDIT - not that it'll be on PC by then.
