Yesterday was $6,999 for a HP OMEN with the 5090 is now $8,499. Yikes.Only 5090s in stock at my MC now are prebuilds going for $9k.
no nvidia is being some junk right now..I wouldn’t spend that even if I had it…and they’ll put a shitt doggy do unit on it..put the Solytech deer 400w unit on it see if it will trip…I don’t know what to tell just cause it’s overpriced doesn’t mean it’s good.
Ihave my 5090 in my main rig and I paid $599 for a 9070XT last year to have as a backup.Gotta stock up while you can (Honestly this was all last years stuff because I like playing with different architectures,. I'm halfway tempted to import a Lisuan LX 7G100 to play with)
If Nvidia even makes a 5090 equilivent...I would expect the entire stack to shift for 6xxx serise next year if they even come out in 2027. 6080 class card will be a 24gb will be the 6090. 6070 will be the new 6080 and so on. Gamers are not going to get the big chip anymore.
They'll hit the landfill before the used market. Nvidia doesn't allow them to be resold, they can only go back to nvidia.Will all these data center GPUs be useable via the driver trick when they hit the used market?
God, hasn't that been the truth for way too long?Things are going to get worse, before they get worser.
If my 5090 needs a RMA i will just use my other one.All current 5090 owners better be hoping they don't need to RMA it... Almost guaranteed all they will do is refund purchase price. Assuming they just don't deny it outright.
I think Intel left the GPU market at the worst possible time.... NVIDIA price gouging everyone... Means even a 3rd place company, selling at the right price becomes very competitive. I almost bought a B580 until I found a lightly-used 5070.
I am sure that is what it wants to use its wafer allocation for.... /sIf AMD ever had a time to be as relevant in the gaming market, as they were since the ATI 9800/X850/X1900 days... it's right about now.
Rtx 6000 pro uses the same connector fwiw.I wonder how much the power connector issues factored into the 5090 decision. Probably not a major factor, but I could hear someone in a Nvidia meeting saying something like "You know, in addition to these being more valuable to the data center markets, dumping the consumer 5090 product solves our 12VHPWR problem too."
Totally made up, but seems feasible to me. The 12VHPWR thing may have been the last straw. I've seen products die like this before.
Makes me curious about how the data center products are powered.
On a quick search I could not find any good high res pictures of the PCB. There is a Gamersnexus tear down video and the board looks the same as the 5090. Like Buildzoid observed on the 5090, it looks like there is only one shunt. Any reported burned connectors on these?Rtx 6000 pro uses the same connector fwiw.
That's why I have kept my Antec 1100 so long, 2 120 mm fans directed squarely on the side of the GPU. Though I still sold my 5090 when it reached 5.5k, just didn't make sense to keep it.On a quick search I could not find any good high res pictures of the PCB.

While a hack, a fan blowing on the connector will help it survive. If these are used in servers with very good airflow, that may prevent the failures seen on 5090s in consumer quality cases.
