Am thinking of getting a Digital Storm Velox machine with a 4090 RTX card with 1500w power supply and ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Dark Hero motherboard

Anyone know once the RTX 5090 comes out, whether i can replace the 4090 card with the 5090 on this machine?

Should be fine I guess.

Since there is no AMD competition, nvidia could release a cut down 5090 first followed by the full 5090 ti just before RDNA 5 launch in December next year (2025)

Is it a water cooled card? You'd probably have to wait for a new GPU block.

I don't see a problem then. only potential issue is card length - if the cards has an enormous cooler, but you can always pick one that fits.
