Interesting that there's a 5070 TI with 16GB VRAM, and it's coming out at (more or less) the same time as the higher spec cards. That might be where the 'value' is (if you can say that with a straight face). Many are saying 16GB on the 5080 seems like not enough, but it's a huge jump in price (and power, and performance, to be fair) to the 5090, so maybe 5070 TI is the way to go? I imagine there'll be a 5080 TI 24GB at some point, but how long will that take?
 
gonna wait for some benchmarks on these cards too see what the best course of action is. The amount of talk about AI related software enabling better gaming on lower end cards makes me think what’s the point of the higher end cards.
 
Will wait to see the real difference compared to the 4090 which I currently have. Not sure what the resale value will be for the 4090FE either, that will be a factor on whether I get a 5090 at all.

I'm pretty sure that I am going to get a 5080. I have a ton of other bits waiting for my new build (9900x, X670e mobo, etc) and have promised my existing machine to my daughter, so need to sort something in the next month or so. I have enough set aside for the 5090, but I'm unconvinced that I can stomach paying that much for the relatively little gaming that I get to do. I suspect the 5080 will allow me to turn up pretty much all the settings on my games at 5120x1440, and run at playable frame rates with some of the software stuff helping out.
 
My 6700XT is managing ok at 1440p, so I will probably hold tight until it starts to struggle. Not really bothered about Ray Tracing etc, so the RX9070/XT might be better value over a 5070ti.
 
I want to see some actual performance reviews of these and the new AMD cards before I even consider selling my 6700XT and getting something else, ideally with me only shelling out about a max of £350 after selling the old
