NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

Reading toxic 4090 owner posts like

lol, yeah… I don’t think it’s only jealous 4000 series owners who are toxic on the 5080. That’s some mental gymnastics there. It is easily one of the most poorly reviewed GPUs in a very long time.

If the best you can muster to make a 5080 look good is “well what choice do I have”. It’s hardly a ringing endorsement is it?

techpowerup have listed the 5070 as being weaker than the 4070 in their GPU database lol

that is only estimated though, based on specs

Sounds bout right since it's actually a 5060

Absolute garbage compared to a 4090 in that crappy Cyberpunk game than no-one ever plays at 4k

Why is the obsession with the 4090 about? Show me on the dolly where the 4090 touched you?

I see lots of 5080's are coming back in stock all over. Not much demand it seems

£799 and that would change. They over priced it.

Why does Cyberpunk show such an outlier when everything else seems to show the 5080 performing mid?

Not bad for a 5060

Only problem is. Actually in you case there is 1400 problems. Lol

You must be gutted mate. Sorry for your loss

My loss is someone's gain got a 4090 for a fair price lol

Cinematic look on the 5080 at 3 fps vs 4090 here.

How much?

Finally, a Gigabyte Aorus Master Review:

Edit: lol no fan header for that 4th fan?! You need to plug it into a motherboard header. I guess it’s not a major issue as you can just sort it out via software (e.g. Fan Control) but I did laugh.

 

[Bidley]

Some did.

Ok you get to be smug

People trying to justify their 5080 purchases.

Lol brand new $1200 GPU and can't even run games with 4k textures. Thats what happens when you only have the same amount of memory as consoles, its so cinematic

lol if you want to cherry pick games and not show the overall over several games then go for it. Now turn on full path ray tracing and see your VRAM run out.

Watch this video so you can actually see real world
Also compare it to a 4090 AIB.

If you need to justify your purchase for a 5080 go ahead, but it's getting rather tiresome for us to see.

See he says that but I watched another one for the 5090d and they stated there was a header on the rear of the card for the rgb and fan. Doesn't matter to much though as the tests show that the fan had no real benefit. The selling point to me was just that there is nothing blocking the top there that it has no restriction to airflow.

It would be easier to show you where it didn't touch me, Sir.

you mean the cards that were going for £2.5k a year ago
in fact they are now going for 2.5-3k on a number of sites

 

[Sedgey123]

We're not on about price but if you want to include that then sure.

And there has been plenty of chances over the course of 2 years to get it at sub 2k
