Sad times. But if taxes/prices increase for US I expect the pressure on 5090 over there will lessen and other countries will get slightly better inventory over time. Maybe not right now but when the hype is cooled a bit. China is hungry for chips so Nvidia can just dump more D models over Asia. Same with real 5090's. They will easly be showled into China they as well. Nvidia don't need US gamers. What we all have to hope for...Nvidia will sell less chips for AI servers. No tree grows to heaven. Better utilizing of GPUs for AI workflow will lower the sales. Just sit down and see Nvidia hit a wall.

Maybe the broken software and all weird problems is fixed by then. Yup. Damn disgusting.... With the trashy fragile 12+4 pin mini-fit connectors it's not advised to disconnect then connect the cable several times. One way road to destroy the trashy connector both on the cable and the card. And people will try that first. Yep, you can most likely fully turn of your PSU to fix it but still, no cards with stock firmware should have such behaviour. Seems there have been no time for QC and testing. https://www.overclock.net/posts/29423263/ ::::: https://www.overclock.net/posts/29423381/ Stupid is the new norm.... CPU Ryzen 7 5800X is an fantastic choice as well.

I fix it for you. It's Alienware. It's more like a custom card. If MSI and ASUS can sell 5080's $500 above MSRP.... Why not DELL Alienware?🤩 Gamers need to stop complaining about lack of 5000 series graphics cards. Dell will always be there for you. You could sell the rest of the trash on Ebay. Just put in your old 4060 or even older cards. Many gamers don't know what they buy, so....😀 With nice bling bling and the desktop design they want....

Why not take the chance with an 5080 at Dell?😀 On top you get a "nice" cute SLIMy box with the wwell known AW logo. And you can even buy an 5 years extended Premium warranty. Not even $7K and you'll get an i9 from Intel's latest hybrid chips family. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 still available in new Alienware Area-51 gaming desktop for $4,449.99 Stock shortages of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards are expected to continue for some time. The GeForce RTX 5080 can be picked up inside Dell's new Alienware Area-51 gaming desktop, albeit for a minimum of $4,449.99

New hardware and new problems... Fun when you shuffle out +3000$ for the latest and greatest. Lots of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 & 5090D GPUs Are Getting Bricked, Possibly Due To Driver, BIOS or PCIe Issues

Maybe so but the numbers they publish are for all types of works. From toilet cleaneers to engineers. Higher educated people (this increases for every year) don't want to work in "china look allike factories". That's how it is everywhere. Also here home. Same as with some high end hardware. If it's shortage the prices will increase. But as I have read it...We in Norway will get cheaper goods. Looking forward to that. Because some place will the goods have to go. Better sell it here for a few precent cheaper than pay full tax to get rid of it. If you already have ok hardware. Just use it "as is" and save some money. Higher end 5000 series graphics cards is already too expensive. Not even sure if you can easly buy whatever you want the next 3 or 4 months. And newly released HW is already old and next gen 10% performance uplift is in the horizon. Wonderful🤢 Trump Tariffs Have Now Come Into Effect; GPUs & Consumer Tech Prices Might Soar Massively Btw. Hope the US government can do something with Jensen and nvidia. Stop with the talk and start with some action... https://wccftech.com/the-us-is-now-investigating-whether-singapore-is-responsible-for-supplying-nvidia-ai-chips-to-china/

The unemployment in the USA around 3,5-5% it will be darn difficult. Even if it was double or 5-8%. And half of that numbers is for all types jobs. And modern people don't want to get their hands dirty these days. Prices will go up, so will wages. But the inflation will win. As always when we talk about this. You see it clearly in Russia. RTX 5090 orders could take up to 16 weeks to fulfill says UK retailer A supply update from OCUK (Overclockers UK) indicates that users who've purchased an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 might need to wait for up to 16 weeks to receive their GPU. Following global RTX 50 sellouts, this news suggests that retailers' struggles with Blackwell inventory will not be easing up anytime soon. We advise you to stick to your current GPU if you're looking to upgrade, at least until supply improves. 16 weeks is 4 months. Now we are in February.

It will be the same as here home. No one can or will find people to make the gods. And be you sure. I have seen it. Norway is expensive. Damn expensive. We lack the needed workers. The prices go even higher nd we all will be losers. Be you sure. I live here. And see it every day. 25% more expensive.... Be you sure you will feel it. The money inflation we have seen will be the baby boy compared. Even the so called fantastic AI boom won't fix it. Because you need people on the floor.

Too late. Already here. Be prepered to pay 1/4 extra for everything. What cost $100 USD will cost $125 forwards. So welcome to the Norwegian tax hell. Only a very few will earn on this. The wealthy one. All norm<al people will get what I have hated the last +3 decades. Forget the past... Hail the future. Mr Musk will laught of all the stupids in flock. He already showed this earlier last month. There is no winners. Only loosers outside those with more than you. I won't be happier when I see my friends on the other side of the big ocean get less than what they have now. Just sadder. More doesn't mean more. Only for a few. Just less for everyone. Same as what Dell offer for all that want PC hardware. Less and less for more money. Greed will take another turn. Yup @Reciever. The reality is now reality without me naming whats going on. Maybe I'm finally paying less than Americans have to pay for modern/next gen tech.

Intel is flooding in problems. Stop making trash. Maybe it will be better. Today's desktop chips come with no HT and loads of babies. On top... Can't make any gaming chips anymore because all the money is put into chips for power efficient Jokebooks. Intel's situation is much more serious than it seems: Clearwater Forest CPUs are delayed until 2026 Intel's financial data for the first quarter of 2025 has been as bad as the company had expected. In fact, after announcing this data, the stock market barely fell, which means that investors were expecting similar values... https://hwbot.org/submission/5773348_papusan_gpupi_for_cpu___1b_core_i9_14900ks_28_sec_633_ms?recalculate=true

I wonder how it feels for those that sold their 4080 (S) for pennies hoping 5080 would be what they hoped for. And for many of those ... The 5090 will be too expensive so not an option even if they could find one. Perhaps they are able to find a cheap 4080 that can replace the 4080 they sold for pennies? And the circle goes around again, with the next one that regret he sold his 4080 for cheap cheap, LOOL From 21:55 - Custom 4080 a bit over $600 or half the price of a custom 5080.

If 5000 series desktop graphics cards was not as exected.... Better say an disappointment. What with coming gaming Jokebooks with mobile 5000 series graphics cards...

Nvidia could pump up the performance and added more vram and sold the 5080 for $1199 (people need to feel they get more for the money). With AMD going for mid range the $1199 price point would probably be too much. Hence why 5080 become as it is. Aka less appealing. But if you get an good AIB 4090 card for $1200 that would be the replacement for what I said above. 5080 as it is now is neither a bird or fish. Not sure how it goes with @ryan but this could be a start going with desktops... If he don't want to build one himself. Pick up an iBUYPOWER desktop PC (with RTX 4070 Super) for a fraction of the price of an RTX 5090 — now just $1,399

Hmmm. The 5080 improve in quality. The above said it should be the 5060. But HU mean it should be an 5070. Maybe the middleman 5060Ti would be the better compromise? 😁 I have always tried follow the rules in life... Be an honest man. If I can't do that I would feel poor and misserable.

If you're standing in line and are able to grab two, three, or four, then stop complaining about the shortage the next time you're in line for the next latest and greatest. There's for a reason stores/retailers say one item for every customer. You're ruining for the next guy in line for limited-edition items if you don't respect the rules. You are your own enemy. Scalpers do the same thing, but for maximum profit. What's the differences for the peps in line behind you getting nothing? What if the man in the line before you buy up everything to help friends/family members that don't bother spend their valuable time in the order line? Maybe they pay him for the work as well. If you have more than one item on your invoice/bill, you haven't followed the rules. Neither have the retailer. But what do I know... I'll take the time to find what I want. So no cryes/anger here🙂 With time the 4000 series will get some more love. Just sell out as much 5000 series cards you can make first. But probably smart because most 4000 series owners won't upgrade every gen. As well keep them of from buying cheaper AMD Radeon cards when they launch later this spring. But shops/retail will do whatever they can to screw you. And the manufacturer of the gods don't bother with you as paying customers. They care only for max profits. Only god know how many D branded cards got most love from Jensen and nvidia. Proshop has now spoken to PCGH . However, the retailer has withdrawn all responsibility for the events at or before the market launch and has simply referred to Nvidia. " Questions about the launch and its handling " should be directed to the manufacturer, they say. Nvidia has not commented. And Asus prefer plastic (metal look alike) on the fan shroud for worlds most expensive (gaming) graphics cards. High quality plastic. The same said Dell for their AW Jokebooks. White turned to poop color after 3-4 weeks. On a item that costed $5000. Yup, high quality can be so much. But people should be happy Asus didn't use metal as etc MSI. The Astral cards could have been easly $100 more. So... Plastic is fantastic. At least Asus think so for their disgusting priced flagship😀

ProShop is the main sales sites to find hardware in Norway and Scandinavia. Nice. Scalper bots said to be responsible for majority of GeForce RTX 50 Founders Edition sales in Europe ProShop has sold the bulk of European RTX 50 Founders Edition cards to scalpers PC Games Hardware was informed by its community that other users were bragging about purchasing RTX 50 FE cards before the oficial launch (at 3:00 PM local time). Once the embargo lifted, there were no cards left to buy. Proshop, a large retailer with multiple chains across various countries, was responsible for handling the sales of Founders Edition cards exclusively in these regions. However, it turns out there was never a real chance to buy these cards, as they were all purchased in Some users even conrmed using multiple addresses to buy cards and circumvent the restriction limiting shipments to one per address. Hmmm. Dom bought two cards from Proshop.

Hwinfo can't pick it up. All too slow. Software vill never be able to catch it correct. And I have seen too many with lower bench scores than needed to be, due their love for massive undervolt. This both for processors and graphics cards. Their HW run at the brink of stability. If they further shrink on voltage they will see soft crashes. Modern HW don't crash in same way as in the older days. Asus... What the hell.

What you see is most likely ghost clocks. I really enoyed Kefi's experiment. He is the one that made the custom Nvflash for 4000 series. Even Frame Chasers couldn't see it when he reviewed the 5080. The bench results he posted showed the real truth. The high boost didn't match the scores/results. Most modern hardware will clock stretch. This will continue (the bench run but will provide lower results) until it crash due the lack of voltage. Often soft crashes if you haven't totally capped down the needed voltage. The hardware will run at the brink of stability due too little voltage. I've discovered that all 4090s clock stretch below 1.15v. The factory limit was changed mid-production to 1.07v and thus new 4090s are secretly losing up to 100mhz. I've discovered that all 4090s clock stretch below 1.15v

MSI GeForce RTX 5080 Suprim Liquid SOC 16GB GDDR7 PCI-Express Graphics Card available in England. Only £1,799.99 or $2,235.84 USD. Have been available all day and the gamers still don't want it, LOOL Dang.... Thats +100% above MSRP. Yup, incl tax but still.

ASUS reveals launch pricing for GeForce RTX 5090/5080, up to $3,099 for 5090 ROG ASTRAL LC $300 extra for the Astral LC card. Aka 55% above MSRP or 300$ above the aircooled Astral OC. Source: ASUS PR. Yup, UL/Futurmark does not disappoint. They are ready with the upgraded Fake frame benchmark. 3DMark DLSS feature test has been updated to support DLSS4 Btw. If you can't find 5000series for sale maybe an Jokebook from Microsoft is what you want instead?

Not so sure about that. Remember citizens in Europa pay from 19-25% taxes on top of the bill. And if Jensen was smart. Start flood the US market with loads of cards before the Trump tax become an reality. But who knows... Nvidia and Jensen will prioritice China before anything.

There is prosumers that want a cheaper option as 4090 for multi GPU setup. And the 5080 should really be an 5060, LOL NVIDIA RTX 5080 should be the RTX 5060: the difference in shaders by cost compared to the full chip is worse with each generation Will this mess be fixed with an bios update? Can bios updates fix flawed HW design? Remember the flawed connector design for 40 series. Only a revision upgrade could reduce the smoke and fire. Reviewer reports RTX 5080 FE instability — PCIe 5.0 signal integrity likely the culprit The issue is suspected to stem from the multi-PCB design of the FE cards. Also have an eye on this.... ROG RTX 5090 once again uses a different core back capacitor combination? Other RTX 5090Ds on Bilibili, including MANLI, ZOTAC, GIGABYTE, COLORFUL, INNO3D, AX GAMING, etc., are all MLCC designs. The 5090D Astral Tony Yu, ASUS China’s General Manager used for the world records had 4 caps and MLCC desig. But the Cards Asus showed under CES had MLCC design. Edit. MSI use all MLCC design for all SKUs. While Asus only use same design on the 5080's. If I remember correctly... Older MSI Lightning cards had extra caps behind the GPU core on PCB.

All 7 cards sold out here in Norway. 7 cards divided into 5,5 million citizens.

As you know. He think he is perfect in his own mind.

I think they all use latest beta software. His results is an outlier. And he was unable to see it. Edit. AMD RX 9070 XT is actually an RX 9080 in disguise: Average performance vs. leaked NVIDIA, better-than-expected Ray Tracing The RX 9070 XT data keeps coming in, and although all the data that AMD had collected internally was leaked a few weeks ago, we now have a specific and key piece of data that is comparative to another competing card. And yes, the RX 9070 XT is.....
