nice, will have a looksie on those vids 🙂 and YES, the upgrade in encoders/decoders is huge indeed! i for one am looking forward to it, i use it on a semi regular basis for media archive management 🙂 "...in a big sea of joe gamers and Carla Content Creators of the world." love that! rofl "5080 OC up in stock 4090 territory in TS:" - perfect, so then the "performance" is starting to match 4090 "stock" pricing as well LOL niiiiiiice. leaning back and enjoying the show, let them figure shit out before we get our cards 😄

just saw romans vid on this, completely agree on your take here. with this little prep time by the vendors, id rather wait 2-3 months so that i can be sure my 3000+€ gpu will not go up in magic smoke once i put it through the ringer.... update on the RTX 50 series data for germany: total votes: 4401 out of which: 44% did not even try to buy a card (= 1948) 42% tried buying one but failed (= 1870) 7% managed to get their hands on a 5080 (= 325) 3% managed to get their hands on a 5090 (= 111) 3% misc. (= 147) aint that lovely? success rate of 2.5% with a total of a whopping 111x 5090s 😄 curious how many of those were aided by bots...

in that case u didnt miss much anyways it seems 😄

ha! i found two shops with a total of four 5090 models available for purchase (delivery sometime between end of march to end of april LOL) so here we have the scalper shop Galaxus: THATS IN EURO BTW! MSRP for the FE iss 2329€. the balls on that shop.... and here we have more "normal pricing" at PC-King, but still high for such basic models if u ask me: not interested in any of these models. not gonna spend a ton of money on a card that i dont even want 😄 but maybe some of you might be interested 🙂

duuuude u gotta be f***ing kidding me O.o and proshop is like: "meh, cancel orders? nah, take it up with nvidia, we got our monies! 😛"

@Papusan now we know where MOST of the norwegian 5090 stock went: what sorcery is this?! also i know that forum handle, i think he might actually be german, seen him around on Zen 4 RAM OC boards 😄

lucky you, we dont even have the option to pre-order and get in any kind of line.... 😄 babygirl is in dreamland, daddy continues to check for supply 😛

omg THIS! let them review the cards, sign them and back they go into the pile to be sold! this way, if u do get an "open box" item, ull at least have it signed by some random youtuber lulz 😄

ha! i wish 😄 as far as i can see there were maybe like 50-100 cards sold in germany, so all of europe wouldnt be that much more than the US, if any....

aight guys, im out. 3 hours and 15 shops later, didnt snipe one. but ill keep my eyes peeled the next days 🙂 my baby girl is calling, daddy duties!

Tally is up to 31x 5090s sold. Also saw a guy who successfully ordered two MSI cards in switzerland 😄

here so far 12 confirmed 5090s sold 😄 edit: correction, were up to 14! whoa!

no luck here yet either! but pages are getting fast again, ppl are giving up. now is the time to stay at it 😄

dont be fooled. here they havent even sold a single 5090 yet. the pages just crashed and are just now recovering. theyre still gonna release the cards 🙂

keep at it boiz

boy am i glad i held off on selling my 4090 before the 5090 launch! 😄

thats the nice thing about the 5090: it keeps our 4090s priced hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh 😄 aight so Mindfactory already seems overloaded, page doesnt even react anymore lulz good that ive got 10 other shops open 😛

there u go 😄 aight gentlemen, start your "refresh engines" 😄 feel free to keep posting here if youre lucky enough to snatch one! including all the deetz for pricing, shop, model, etc. 🙂

now, do we think its "coincidence" that the Tustin shop has almost 30% of all 5090s, especially considering that Jay will be building live on site to "celebrate" the 50 series launch? 😛

heads up for our american budddies thinking of heading to MC: suuurely, 233 cards are sufficient for the US, right?! the rest is here in europe (delusional hope lulz)

afaik this only referred to their official MSI store on their website. they confirmed that other retailers "could" actually have 5090 skus on launch day: https://hothardware.com/news/msi-delays-geforce-rtx-5090-us-when-preorders-ship "As for MSI's own branded cards, a rep in the Discord thread clarified that the delay is only for its own US store, adding that he "can't confirm other retailers." In other words, it's entirely possible that places like Amazon, B&H Photo, Newegg, and other retailers will have availability of MSI-branded GeForce RTX 5090 cards on January 30. Of course, it's also entirely possible that they won't."

tru dat, 16 GB can be considered the minimum if you dont (yet) want to worry about any gaming titles whatsoever. and yes, in some extreme scenarios were already breaching that. anything below 16 GB will get worse with more and more titles demanding more than that. btw, real life meme of a dude camping out 😄:

see? thats how it goes> get 5090 = CPU bottleneck = get X3D = RAM bottleneck = get faster RAM = SSD botleneck....etc keeps the industry going baby! 😄

while ure at it....why dont u just bring me and the rest of the boys here some 5090s from MC 😄 kthxbyeeeeee

btw guys, i just realized: The 24+7 power stages on the Astral are 80A rated, so that would be 24*80=1920A total. The Suprim SOC "only" sports 22 phases, but theyre likely 90A rated (tbc, but likely so far), thus = 22*90=1980A. Thus, even LESSS reason to pay the Astral premium *lulz*
