NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

This. They remove when not in stock.

But they've been on the site, not in stock for months.

 

[Purgatory]

But they've been on the site, not in stock for months.

They do remove the not in stock items. Also I don't see them coming back in stock now with the ram issues and diverting the vram to the pro cards.

But they've been on the site, not in stock for months.

They seem to come and go, the point is that this is nothing new.

 

[Cooper]

Actually I think they've removed them because they were listed with the Pragmata bundle which now seems to be changing to the 007 First Light game, so maybe they will return to the site with that....and still be out of stock

 

[Things change I've changed]

My Wireview Pro II arrived today and as I have an older 3.0 PSU and recently bought a Corsair ThermalProtect cable, with the Wireview now protecting the GPU side would it make sense to plug the TheramlProtect cable in reverse so the thermal senser is on the PSU side? would that work to have both sides protected?

The thermal protect cable just opens the connection between the sense pins when it gets too hot. I don't think most PSU's would respond to that.

On the other hand, GPU's should shut down when the sense pins lose continuity.

NVIDIA Reportedly Prepares RTX 5090 Price Hike Amid Rising GDDR7 Costs

According to Chinese Board Channels, a reliable source for graphics card supply chain information, NVIDIA is reportedly preparing to increase the price of its GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5090D V2 GPUs. This will result in a $300 (about 2,000 RMB) increase for NVIDIA's add-in card (AIC) partners, who...

The world was a better place when all graphics cards were used for was video games.

It has shown everyone just who big companies care about though, for those who were unaware of this before 2020.

RMA'd my 5090 Zotac OC on Tuesday due to a noisy fan, and thankfully a new replacement arrives tomorrow.
Just looked on OCUK and it's retailing for £3350!, which is bonkers as I paid just shy of £1900 upon release.
We are truly living in surreal times, and tbh I'm half tempted to sell it and get a 9070XT.

That is absolutely ridiculous.

And i was just reading this 5 minutes ago about Trump meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping

Nvidia boss Jensen Huang, who joined Trump on the trip after a personal invitation from the President, has already seen movement,
with the US clearing around 10 Chinese firms including Alibaba, Tencent and ByteDance to buy its second-most powerful AI chip, the H200.
Nvidia's stock was up more than 4 percent Thursday.

I’m so done with modern PC’s. This whole market has got ridiculous.

Problem it not just PC's, Just about everything seems to just be hugely increasing in price

 

[Purgatory]

And remember it can always get worse

If the state of the current market doesn't change, there won't be one left to get worse.

If people want change it really is the time to keep your wallet in your pocket, then watch how quickly it changes. Covid time FOMO and other issues then opened that door to these prices and nvidia has well and truly shown it's true colours and so has AMD, before that was Intel as we all remember selling us 4 cores forever at inflated prices and stagnated the whole consumer market.

The 5090 was not even worth msrp and now they are almost double the fake msrp.. Come on it's right there in front of you the scam. Then always now finding something or someone else to blame why prices have gone up. Then every western government seems to be doing the same to its people in some way or another and doing nothing to protect their tax payers and people that voted for them. Once in power be it industry or government they will take the consumer for a ride.

Just look at the people in power now and only a few years ago we would have said this will never be allowed to happen and be called tinfoil hat man..

Welcome to the new world.

All part of the plan, squeeze people in every direction. While someone somewhere is getting more rich and crying they need to increase prices again. Disgusting world it's become and the people who are meant to protect the people are now part of the scam.

Unfortunately I've needed them for work, so I've been part of the problem I think that's where most of the sales are going anyway, people who need stuff done at some form of scale that would otherwise takes extra hours/days to get done without one. As well as a massive black market for 5090's in China.


If I was using it just for gaming with no other task at hand I'd feel sick to pay what I have done for them, outside of 3-4 games and a few more releasing where it's genuinely been needed to give me a true "5090" experience.

The fact that we're heading into 3K+ territory being the norm and no FE's conveniently been available for mass market consumption and only in pre builds "how convenient" creates a perfect storm for Nvidia's partners.
