And results are!.... Meh... Good job Nvidia thermal engineers to cool 575w in a 2 slot cooler though.

Yeah. 5090 is a skip for me, just like the 20 series (except that I somehow won a 2080 Super from EVGA and started using it instead of a 1080 Ti SLI). Hopefully power consumption will come back down with the 6090!

I was looking at that too, they're crazy! They're surly milking it while they can. Sadly will still sell, at least while there is a shortage. Nvidia really has done an impressive job keeping the prices of the halo cards high, can't even get a 4090 for the price of a 5090.

Close to Titan z and Titan V prices lol. The Astral has a far better cool than the founders edition.

the Astral Cooler is not worth 800 more than the Fe but the even larger robbery going on is 900$ for the same cooler on a 5080 , which will get beat down by a 4090

Asus cards are not good. get a Zotac or Msi card instead.

Absolute garbage. Even worse is that the disappointment is keeping the 4000 series card prices inflated on the used market.

That's crazy, the Gigabyte card is 40% more than what I paid for the 4090 version. 5090 prices are out of control. 5080 and below seem much close to their 4000 series versions.

Yeah I was watching that. Seems oversold to me. I purchased some NVDA shares at $117 today, I guess I'll find out soon enough if that was a good move, lol. The 5090 has some great specs, but approaching $3,000 for a single card? Smh. I might end up getting a 4090 after all!

Well this has been fantastic! Purchased a couple hundred shares at $117 early last week, sold them at $127.50, bought a few hundred more this morning at open at $114 and made just over $1k in less than an hour. More than paid for a 5090 already! Still trading. :) Just have to find some 5090's in stock now, lol...

rjohnson11 I have decided to wait a few months when stock is plentiful and prices are where they should be.
I think it's probably closer to May before us Normies can get a card at close to MSRP , Scalpers probably are tuned in on this shortage because it was beyond epically stupid to try a launch at Lunar new year , this is going to be 2020 on steroids ... was it lets test beta Drivers on rushed launch test subjects? was it Over-hyping a Meh Launch? was it , Let's get rid off the remaining ADA stock at killer prices? was it to Let China take over the whole 3Dmark leaderboard with the so-called Dragon edition? one thing is for sure, it's a mess and the best thing is to care less , I might skip this Gen if it's this manipulated , running out of desire at this point...we shall see but I bet it is a longer slog than any of us thought.

Yeah, I suspect it may be a very long wait before we see any of the more desirable 5090 cards available at MSRP. The 5090 Founders possibly never. I noticed when watching Jenson Huang doing his big launch on stage in his glittery jacket that the audience was very subdued compared to previous launches. Maybe people have just had enough of the bs, and even the ones who attend these launches in person realize that these cards will never materialize in anywhere near sufficient numbers. Just another paper launch with no substance. I don't get anywhere near as excited as I used to years ago, because I realize the chance of actually getting my hands on one any time soon is remote (unless I wanted to pay 2-3 times MSRP to a scalper, which I will never do).
