Maybe by or towards the end of this year, we should see the prices stabalize more. 5090 started at an idiotic price of 4.5L and look where it has come down to.
Wao, this is indeed a great price. Just waiting for the Astral and MSI GPU's to come down as well. I think FE GPU will be available in the next 6 months or so.

This is about MSI MEG ACE x570 Motherboard, NVIDIA RTX 4090 FE(bought on launch), and Corsair Axi 1200[Powering Gfx Card thru corsair 12VHPWR Cable], as these are the components that will matter to this post.
On 31st March 2024, for the usual weekend gaming ritual, I powered on my PC after 5 days, it briefly started to immediately shutdown(whole episode took around 5 seconds), there was burning smell coming from the cabinet, although there was no smoke.
I immediately opened the Cabinet door, but couldn't see any obvious damage. So, pressed the Power Button again...
That's exactly why I avoid new high-end products and tell others to do the same unless they don't mind going through such experiences. Also rptech shenanigans is well known. The greed is real. It's too bad that an individual consumer is unable to do anything about it.
And generally speaking, is it a good idea to pick up 5000 series at any price given the issues with melting power connectors? Genuinely curious... For such an expensive buy, isn't that a huge single point of failure?
