So they've officially been announced:

UK Pricing is as follows (for Founders Edition models, board partners will likely be more expensive):

I see the pricing scales similarly to the 40-series, so the 2x performance of the 5090 = 2x the price, just as the 1.6x performance of the 4090 over the 4080 Super was 1.6x the price.

Still, the extra/newer video cores may help significantly in specific workloads, and the extra Tensor/AI cores may help in Stalker 2 🤣

I can't see me springing for the 5080 tbh. The 5070Ti seems to be the best value. 16GB of vRAM in the 5080 is ridiculous IMO, should have been 20GB minimum.

Will wait and see how it looks though.

Also just noticed in the specs that the 50-series has the same length/height as the 40-series, but are all 2-slot instead of 2-3 slot.

Of course board partners are free to lengthen/thicken/enshitify their own models as they see fit.

I'm completely out of the loop on these things but I've seen "frame Gen" being bandied about a bit, are they saying the new DLSS will generate frames using AI to increase FPS in games?

My concern would be how that could mess with the game designers vision for a game, will the AI frame be generating art assets for a game as it's trying to create frames or am I completely missing the point with this one, like I say very out of the loop on the new stuff at the minute

DLSS 4.0 essentially can create 3 fake frames per real frame, beforehand it’s been 1 to 1

Theres no render done, it’s done by AI based on the previous real frame and the expectation of the next frame.

But this can’t influence mouse latency currently, so if you’re only producing 28 frames, the mouse reaction is still going to be 28Hz rather than the 112 your FPS meter is showing, so reactions will still be jerky and slow

That makes much more sense, super overthinking it

Just finished the HUB vid. Disappointing for sure, Steve hit the nail on the head calling it the 4090ti IMO.

Nvidia were always going to prioritise AI given how profitable it currently is, but in terms of gaming metrics, we're only getting +27% 4K performance for +25% cost after 2 years, which does not feel great.

Other takeaway seems to be if you want to game with this you need a 9800X3D, with CPU bottlenecking even happening in some more recent 4k titles such as Spiderman.

At £1500 it might be tempting, if I had £2000 spare I would not be enamoured with this choice, if I had £20,000 spare it might be worth it to get the best, but certainly not from a value proposition.

Weary of how cards down the stack will add up, although if you are looking for a new card, the 5080 FE should still be an adequate choice based on current market competition. Whether you can beat the scalpers is another question.
