AMD's plan (that they talk about openly) is to conquer low and mid market as that's where the most monies sit. And since in that range fancy RT (not to even mention PT) is a luxury that doesn't work well on most GPUs, they can focus mostly on raster, vRAM, pricing, power use etc. And get competitive GPU. All the high-end ones are for NVIDIA to charge as much as they want for, but it seems most people won't care, as that's a very small cut of the gaming pie as is anyway. Though, as far as I've heard from Sony and AMD's talks about new fancy RT processing, AI etc. - bigger changes we can expect in next GPUs, after the coming 9000 series. 9k one will likely be just incremental update focused on cost cutting to be competitive, not much new in hardware sans typical incremental speed-ups.

I highly doubt it and so far all the leaks and rumours suggest it will be more expensive than that. Especially after incoming Trump's tariffs on China import that the rest of the West will likely follow with price hikes. Though, NVIDIA is free to change their pricing till the very last minute if they so desire, so we'll see.

Yes, however it's work nothing the tariffs in theory shouldn't impact us... also the "leaked" price was in AUD which cards are notoriously more expensive there than almost any other country by several $100
 
I'm planning on a complete new build in 2025 so will definitely be going 5000 series. Whatever the build will be, it will be a massive uplift in performance compared to my current i5-4690K / GTX 970!

I dont plan on buying straight away as we all know no one can beat those bots plus fingers crossed by the time summer comes stock will be ok.

I've seen leaked prices in RMB (from Chinese sources) which are showing about 50% higher pricing for 5090 comparing to 4090 release pricing.

Poss fake ofc so mountain of salt required.

@momo56 got it earlier, he's not liking the FE look. Good job he blocks his cards :D


edit - Videocardz also pulled it so they prob weren't confident in the source.

I like that and it keeps the smaller profile, FEs usually have. I feel if true the partners would be ****** with nvidia directly competing with them so blatantly with more fans etc.
 
The highest card I’d be looking at would be 5070 +- Ti which ends up in this sort of no man’s land of being really expensive but not having enough VRAM to at the price point.
 
It’s a no from me.

Toyed with the idea very briefly and did the usual man maths but I really don’t need anything new and shiney.

My 7800x3d / 7900xtx is only about 13/14 months old so it would be really self indulgent.
 
Like others I can't really do much until I see the pricing, and ideally reviews as well. I'd be happy to pick up a 4080 Super if they drop enough in price if the 5080 is too high, but if they don't drop and the 5080 is not far away in price I might as well just get that. A bit concerned my 5700X3D would bottleneck a 5-series too much at UWQHD/144hz (which is what I'd need reviews for). If it does, I might just get the 4-series as I'm definitely not doing an AM4 -> AM5 rebuild anytime soon.
