NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion
- Thread starter scubes
- Start date
launch day sort by price descending to have a heart attack.
It won't be equal with 4x frame gen, it'll blow past the 4090.No I was just suggesting that vram compression techniques being advertised as meaning you need less vram have all proved to be rubbish. 4x frame gen will of course run fine as that's the only reason it will be equal to a 4090
All depends on how much FE stock Nvidia has managed to produce. Would be hilarious if there are tens of thousands of 5080/5090 FE in stock in UK warehouses ready to rock on the 30th.
If Nvidia's db numbers for the 5090 cooler are accurate, the FE is 100% the card to go for, due to lowest price, small form factor enabling it to be used in pretty much all sized cases, resale value etc.

I do care that the entry level AIB cards with worse PCBs than the FE and awful designs are likely £200-300 over MSRP.
the fe sellers site is gonna crash 100% the bots used to clean up during the 30 series mining craze.

There was <200 in the first batch of 4090 FEs apparently.
not having a 5070ti founders edition feels like a deliberate tactic on nvidias part to upsell folk to the 5080 FE !
You would be daft not to go with a brand new shiny 5080.
That new smell out of the box
The 4090 will still be a second or third hand card, not worth even thinking about a second hand 4090 unless it was around £800.00

RTX5000 is a bit of a tame generation, keeping RTX4000 values higher than otherwise would be.
But RTX6000 is almost certain to be move to 3nm, which has 34% higher density than the node RTX5000 uses. This is decent, but much smaller than RTX3000 which used Samsung 8nm and RTX4000 used TSMC 5nm, 8nm to 5nm was a massive density increase while TSMC 3nm is a milder 34% improvement.
So don't expect RTX6000 to be 80% faster than RTX5000, but it should be a decent 40-50% faster I think.
The only issue with TSMC 3nm is its cost leading to slow uptake. I'm sure 3nm is what Nvidia will use, but they'll delay launch until the cost comes down, so we don't expect to see RTX6000 until 2027

Nvidia have been pretty consistent in releasing a new generation of GPU's every 2 years, or thereabouts
I just can't see the 6000 series being released until late 2026 or early 2027.

For sure 2027… they need to milk us first!

the rumors talk about 600watts and a 2-slot cooler, this is coming across as contradicting information

Is there anyone here from the gaming enthusiast side that has actually paid £1k+ for a used 4090 in the last 3 months? I’m not asking whether people have sold their 4090s, as there is clearly a market for them… I’m just not convinced that it’s a very big one, or put another way I think it must be for a niche audience. If people are mostly buying them to ship abroad or for commercial purposes, I’d expect that market to pretty much vaporise once the 50 series drops.
New 5080 for me, personally, out of those choices. Too much money and risk to gamble on second hand equipment like that. It’s bad enough buying it new!
