The Astral is still high priced here home. More like $3195 (but still much cheaper then US). The TUF and a similar other 5090s dippping around $2200 now. Seen it down to $2140. -

The nice thing here home. Each circuit breaker is 16 Amp or 3680W. And minimum two of them in the main rooms. So a total of +7360W. I had a complete electrical upgrade of the house 1.5 years ago, so it should be good until I'm finished here on earth๐ The Intel Ryzen moment. ASSRock or/and AMD won't tell whom to blame. Maybe we will see some more dead Ryzen chips the next 3 years (from earlier batches chips). -

Instead for buy overpriced low/mid end 8GB graphics cards 30-50% above MSRP there is options for those that don't care. Do Gamers Need A Graphics Card? iGPU Performance Explored I remember the flack Nvidia got from launching two different 4080 SKUs. One of the 4080 become withdrawn due wrong naming. AMD does the same in 2025 for 9060 XT. They never learned from Nvidia's failure/scam. The 8GB cards should be branded non XT and re labeled as 9050 8GB Edition... And nvidia continue with bad QC. Nvidia releases emergency RTX 5060-series firmware to fix blank screens on reboot -

Our old friend F. Azor continue as he did in Dell Alienware. Not much have changed from that man. But he is right in one thing...There is market for 8GB graphics cards trash. No in hell people should pay $300 and upwards for 8GB cards in 2025. AMD defends RX 9060 XT 8GB, says majority of gamers have no use for more VRAM LOOL And there is something called double standard (AMD in a nutshell). Or AMD have adopted the salesman F. Azors thinking about how to run the business. AMD has been heavily critical of NVIDIA in the past for its memory limitations, but now that it has launched a Radeon RX 9060 XT with 8 GB , it has changed its mind. In recent years, AMD has repeatedly criticized NVIDIA for only using 8 GB of VRAM in its modern graphics cards. But now it is no longer of the same opinion as it has followed in its footsteps. -

Microsoft's bold move: Expensive Surface Laptop 13 now ships without a charger Microsoft officially states that this move supports EU initiatives to reduce electronic waste.... Nope. This is done to increase profits. -

Gigabyte found a way to save 50 cent on their +3300$ graphics cards. Of course they took the opportunity to make slight better profits... Greedy bastards. https://www.overclock.net/threads/official-nvidia-rtx-5090-owners-club.1814246/post-29469571 -

Hmmm. If you have MB with camm modules and use bench-table you can put your plastic figures on top of them. LOL -

They will shamelessly feed data to an onboard large language model. Everyone should help Microsoft to win the AI race. Messaging app Signal will block Windows Recall from taking chat screenshots WTF?! Recall is shaping up to be a security and privacy nightmare โ and one of the most popular messaging platforms is already trying to patch the hole. Signal's developers are now resorting to a "weird trick" involving Windows DRM to shield users from unwanted Microsoft surveillance.

Yup. Gigabyte prefer offer you below bare minimum for the markets highest priced graphics cards. https://www.overclock.net/posts/29469387/ Gigabyte's CEO try to educate their engineers... Second failure... CAMM2 form factorIn the desktop PC, the new RAM has so far been a failure No boards, no RAM. No RAM, no motherboards either. The CAMM2 memory standard is completely unavailable in desktop PCs. Forget cheap 5090's... Power supplies with up to 3.3 kW Manufacturers competing for the performance crown In the future, ATX power supplies will even be available with up to 3.3 kW, which is the maximum for a 1-phase household connection. -

Very smart done by Jonny Guru and his team mates at Corsair. The new 2025 refresh of the HX1500i continue to have two 2ร8 cables on the power supply side of the 12v-2*6 cables. No tiny junk will be connected to the PSU shroud. Clever done. Why change that just works @Mr. Fox?๐ 2x PCIe 5.1 (12V-2ร6) 650mm connectors (two 2ร8 cables on the power supply side) Review: Corsair HX1500i Power Supply (Model 2025) Hmmm. PSUs for more than 1x5090 is the big now. Does this mean Nvidia will produce more 5090s or will gamers have to compete harder with prosumers that fill up their workstations with "cheap" 5090s for AI tasks?

Innovation at it's best. When aRGB ain't enough to trick you into pay more. Same as with modern AIOs. A small screen on everything to increase the prices. V-Color puts displays on memory modules tomshardware.com Of course, screens on the side of memory modules add to the cost, but since they represent a unique feature, enthusiasts will likely be willing to pay extra to have it. -

I Expect Nvidia need all defective/cutdown GB202 they can find for a possible 5090DD for China market. If that's the case not even sure we will see 5080Ti. And if they do the 5080Ti they will certainly be +-1600$. Maybe the 5080 will live aside the 5080 Super (to be able to offer a $1000 card). Or the whole range need a mid cycle upgrade if Nvidia put the 5080 Super closer to $1200. Nvidia need the $1000 card to compete with AMDs 9070XT. If we don't see a real upgrade as etc xx70Ti Super priced $899. Nice... The Wireview need a fan now. -

Not much of an upgrade. More vram is welcome but the rest is the same. Will probably come with an increased price. But with this refresh Nvidia have made room for the 5090DD for China and a possible 5080Ti RTX 5080 Super rumored with 24GB of memory โ Same 10,752 CUDA cores as the vanilla variant with a 400W+ TGP
