- Dude everyone here is an autist, just let your freak flag fly
You are correct. Perhaps I should have compiled all of my information into a some kind of table in a program like Microsoft Excel in order to avoid making this kind of mistake.
Of course then someone on the Internet might call me a nerd.
It simply shows how unconcerned they are about the consumer market. Kinda like AMD. When big money is elsewhere, peasants like us get ignoredMaybe NV should hire Tim cook??? I never seen Apple with a paper launch for any of their products. This company sucks at inventory handling, and its worth $3T lolol
I'm pretty sure Nvidia will "solve" this driver overhead issue with their more lucrative and profitable "ARM" desktop platform where they can sell their Mediatek licensed ARM CPU to existing suckers by promising them that this is the platform that unleashes the actual performance of their 5090.Just to be clear, I'm throughly unimpressed by how NVidia chose to spec this generation, but I think a lot of hardware enthusiasts still don't realize that we're increasingly seeing CPU's struggle with these really beefy GPU's.
Here AMD CPU test from 1600 to 9800

Just a black screen here. So probably an annoying/sketchy channel (or a "short", I hate "shorts").
Nah just your standard head shot of the streamer with a screaming face or shocked face.
- My mental shorthand is that all those reaction faces in the thumbnails are their "O" faces, but then again I'm a pervert so maybe its just me.
There there, let me ease your pain with some good news from the EU:You know I can never unread that?
The Geforce RTX 5090 FE and Geforce RTX 5080 FE were expected to be completely sold out before the official market launch on January 30th at 3 p.m. This is indicated by invoices that the PCGH editorial team has received and that were issued 30 minutes before the start of sales. According to this, the two Blackwell graphics cards were already being picked up by bots via API from around 2:20 p.m. via links published in advance and were then completely sold out by 2:30 p.m.
several members of a German Discord server have contacted the PCGH editorial team and, in addition to numerous invoices, order and shipping confirmations, also provided the bot that used the API to buy up all stocks of the Founders Edition of the Geforce RTX 5090 and 5080, which are now sold out and are only available in the Proshop, before they were released for sale on January 30 at 3 p.m. CET.
Proshop, in the person of Eric Letkow, Country Manager of the Danish online retailer, has now officially responded to a query from the PCGH editorial team and referred the matter to Nvidia. The company based in Højbjerg near Aarhus obviously sees the US manufacturer as responsible.
This is actually pretty good. They are being sold for $4000+ on third party sites.Just got lucky and got an order in for an AIB on Best Buy here. These cards are robbery. The markup over MSRP is ridiculous. The card I got was $600 more than MSRP.

Bots buy Geforce RTX 5090/5080 FE: Proshop sees Nvidia as responsible
They essentially grabbed all FE stock for multiple EU countries. Just send in the clowns already.
I mean you don't have to upgrade every year!Hell maybe NV is like "You people don't like our cards?! FINE! Then you don't get any and we'll see how you like THAT!"
After a year of no NV GPUs on store shelves people will greedily lap up whatever slop NV shovels in front of them.
Seems perfectly rational, it's what I'd do if I was a $3T dollar company...
I will want to upgrade in 2027 and I bet the stock and pricing of whatever is new won't be any better.I mean you don't have to upgrade every year!
But the uplift between what you have now and what you get in 2027 will be greater than if you upgrade every year.I will want to upgrade in 2027 and I bet the stock and pricing of whatever is new won't be any better.
Hopefully game devs don't get any worse.
Yes, it was sarcasm. Yes, it's not Nvidia's job to learn distributors how to secure their API.Good news being sarcasm?

I think you'll be waiting for a while before you get 2x-3x your 6800XT... unless RT suddenly becomes a must-have.-Indeed.
I always buy a card to play games that have already released (i.e. my 6800XT was purchased to play games from 2016-2022), I always buy used, and I generally try to 2x-3x my performance for $300-$400.
The 6800Xt is roughly a 3X perf upgrade over my old 980Ti and i managed to snag it for $415 back in 2022 before the 4090 dropped.
It is Nvidia's job to require their distributors to act in the best way that avoids people hating Nvidia for it.Yes, it was sarcasm. Yes, it's not Nvidia's job to learn distributors how to secure their API.

Something something people are not robots.What's your rational why Rubin isn't pulled in quicker than originally planned?
They clearly need to start making better SMs.They clearly need new process
