News NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Is 2x Faster Than 4080 At $999, RTX 5070 Ti 2x Faster Than 4070 Ti At $769, RTX 5070 Faster Than 4090 For $549

I was under the impression AMD had straight up confirmed there will be no 9080xt? Do let me know if I'm wrong or there's new information, would be very interested in a 9080xt.
yes nothing, but hopefully we get new gen next year on new node.

30% faster than 9070xt would land around 4090, which seems like a worthwhile upgrade from 3080 if priced ok.
Best case scenario for gaming gpu is that demand for TSMC reduces or intel/others become competitive and have capacity.
Anyway, i should probably stop looking at this now, i dont really need it and market isn't great.
 
5090 melts again and takes down psu too.
No idea what Indian warranty will cover if this happens here.

Lol

And in some other thread, it was argued that "Nvidia was pricing their GPUs (5070, specifically) too low", and "AMD are of the poorest quality, while the 50-series is top-notch"
 
Not worth it... 5070 similar price, similar performance
Amd always gets lower sale because their terrible pricing at launch. They think they can compete with nvidia. But if two similar graphics card at similar price by nvidia n amd. I will always buy nvidia, just because i can do more than gaming if i want, like running local ai, edit videos, running video upscalling software etc. so suppose even if nvidia is little behind raster performance i will still buy nvidia. Because AMD gpu is a piece of bricks other than gaming, also they are quite poor in terms of PCB design, mosfet and memory cooling... Brands themselves cut costs because they know the sales would be low..
I honestly think the price of 9070 should be at 30-35k rs and 9070xt at 40-45k rs. If they really want to make sales in india (or anywhere else to a normal person, not youtuber/reviewer)

Nvidia price are justifiable..they are being generous to sell a 5070 at 60k including GST. DLSs works really good, runs cooler, eats less power.

Amd gpu sucks, runs hotter, undervolting is also unstable. Gpu board manufacturer do cost cut heavily on amd graphics card like asus, zotac, gigabyte, msi. Everybody knows stock will not going to be cleared unless there's chip shortage..

@CasualGamer91 Any (logical) comments/opinions?

You're a hater
Far from it. There is a difference between practical/logical and being a subservient hater.

Case in point - My first GPU was a GeForce 256 SDR. My first DX10 card was a GeForce 9600 GT. My current card is a 3080.

Who doesn't know about 4090 or 5090 melting connector issue?
Knowledge of the issue isn't the point here - you're just contradicting yourself. You know of the melting connector issue, yet most of your responses were tailored towards Nvidia doing no wrong, and of the highest quality.
That is because unsupported PSU...
Really? What would your definition of a "supported" PSU be in this regard? I'm very curious to know with some concrete links to back it up, barring outliers. I'm happy to be corrected, otherwise.

As far as I know, almost all failures happened on "supported" PSUs. Also, you should also know that (in case you decided to skip reading actual information, which would contradict your very logical opinion) the melting connectors were caused due to an inherent design flaw by Nvidia.

Lastly, to quote from the linked article in response to your "unsupported" PSU theory:

"Melting occurs despite Corsair's first-party 600W 12VHPWR cable being used."

"The user avoided third-party cables and specifically used the original power connector, the one that was supplied with the PSU, yet both sides of the connector melted anyway."


Should we now blame Corsair for being at fault somehow, because Nvidia can do no wrong, in your opinion?


Here is some additional media that screams top-notch current-quality work from Nvidia:


I welcome counter statements from you for each point laid out above. I will happily stand corrected if the need arises.

More good news for 50 series, apparently even 5060ti is affected by high temps around power delivery stuff (not reported by sensors) .
Keeps getting better this one, but people still keep buying. I think they may have allocated less research/development budget to 50 series so we have all of these hardware and driver issues.
Or maybe they have lost it after AI success.

So 50 series used may be a very bad idea after few years. Indian ambient is higher too so all such issues will have larger impact probably.

Igor's Lab states that several components that make up the power delivery system, such as the FETs, coils, drivers, and traces connecting everything together, are grouped too close together, creating temperatures that can potentially deteriorate the power delivery system over the course of a card's life, potentially killing the card after just a few years of use.

Sometimes I get the feeling that they are looking to exit the consumer space or just converting it into a test lab.

yeah, possible as AI hardware has lots of margin.
Or maybe success went into their heads. Lots of employees are probably already rich via stock options and maybe some don't care anymore.

Hmm ... if you look at their pro RTX line, they are actually pretty good and almost a monopoly. The Data center space, again a monopoly, and those are the primary revenue drivers.
Then you consider the paper launch and margins in the consumer space .. nah, they no longer care about it.

There were reports of issues with blackwell servers, but anyway i don't know anything about that. Monopolies take time to go away even if there is some incompetence from leader.
Again, i don't know. But yeah they have withdrawn supply from consumers, so clearly its not a priority.
But that doesn't mean that they would want to give away their reputation so easily. Else whey even bother ? Do they want to sell 5090 at 2k+ from defective ai chips ?

Only thing good has been DLSS 4. If they hadn't done that, they would actually have fallen behind FSR4 which would have been hilarious.

I guess they don't give a rat's ass about that anymore. They are a publicly traded company only looking to appease Investors and shareholders for more monies.
