Can you wipe the hard drive and install Windows on it fresh? Or is there some HP stuff on it that the machine has to use?

You're a gentleman and a scholar. :smug:

RTX 5080 FE's back in stock @ Nvidia. If FE models are your pleasure. :smug:

It won't matter if AMD releases a 9900XTX, or whatever. The 7900XTX was a worthy competitor to the RTX 4080/4090, and it didn't help AMD gain much market share in the high-end. People will demand a 9900XTX that performs like a 5090 and costs under $1000.00. And they will still go with...

With DLSS being a great option in most games, the i9-9900K might end up limiting your 3080Ti if you're upscaling. If you're only running native 4K, then it shouldn't be much of a bottleneck. Either way, I'd save your upgrade money for a CPU/Mobo/RAM upgrade.

I think they're going to have to drop the price to $299.99 to really move them. $449.99 isn't going to entice anybody.

It was worth it for me. I have a 4K / 240Hz monitor. I was also able to get the 5090 for $2,000.00 MSRP and sell my 4090 for $1,800.00, so it was a no-brainer. :smug:

Stock really seems to be picking up. My Microcenter now has three at MSRP. :eek:

I recently upgraded my gaming rig to an RTX 5090, so my current 4090 needs a new home. :smug: This is the MSI RTX 4090 Liquid Suprim X version with a 240mm AIO. The original retail box with Nvidia 4-way splitter and mouse pad are included. *SOLD*

Oops, yes... I meant ASUS. ;)

I was able to snag the MSI ASUS TUF 5090 for $1,999.99 at my Microcenter this weekend, they had a couple. So, it seems like stock is really coming in, finally.

How are you liking the PNY 5090? Are the temps noticeably better than the 5090 FE?

They're starting to show up near me too. I'd pick one up, but I don't trust Gigabyte's build quality. :cautious: I see so many of their cards being sold as "broken" or "for parts" on eBay that it gives me pause on something that costs $2,000.00.

5090's FINALLY back at MSRP @ Newegg, if you don't ming getting Zotac. :whistle:

It looks like MSRP RTX 5070 FE cards are in stock at Nvidia.com. Maybe they've been in stock for a long time. It's been a while since I checked on these. :smug:
