The PC tech freak show is all smoke and mirrors, snake oil and fake frames. They need to have a rude awakening and we need to treat them to a financial crisis unlike anything they have ever had to endure. And, while we are at it was can let them know our colons are not their personal sausage grinders.

 

FG aside (yuck), 5090 has some impressive gains in my testing over the 4090 and 5080. Pricing is absolutely terrible, but the performance is there. Down the rest of the stack, you either pay the same or even less for modest gains across the board. It isn't exciting, but it is still net positive across the board. It isn't like Nvidia provided zero up uplift and charged more.

 

We need AMD to do what they're doing to the mid range with the 9070xt to the halo tier. Nvidia literally has zero competition. They didn't have it last time either with the 4090 but the 9070xt lowers the price (when MSRP), ups the RT but is basically performing raster wise overall like a 7900xtx.

 

Demand has many 9070xt's priced like 5070ti's and as much as I like the 9070xt, if pricing is equal, I'm taking the 5070ti.

@tps3443 This is some serious levels of dedication to shunting and ad hoc cooling the 5090 FE!!

YUK! That poor card! My goodness. His build was really clean looking too! I’m surprised he’d chop an FE up this way. 
 

I’m kinda OCD and I like things looking clean. Based on the rest of his build, I really don’t think he’s gonna be happy with it in a day/week.
 

I would not modify stock cooler, just apply the shunt to give us 1,050-1,200 watts. Revert back to stock, or wait for EKWB block. He got it working though. And I think the FE really needs better cooler for full potential.

And not forget all the cards with ugly home brewed heatsink and fans on top of the fancy colored orginal alu backplate to try reduce the temps. Imagine if Nvidia made the 5090 as the 3090 with vram sandwiched on the PCB. Like instant 100C for the vram and backplate. So perfectly fine for cooking food while you gaming. Engineering at the very best. 

 

The tiny trash connectors is almost as superglued to the GPU and PSU, LOOL
