Thoughts on pricing?

It's too much lol. 40-62% higher price on 5090/4090 and 5080/4080S is nuts. I paid $1599 for a 4090. They want to just add $1K. Madness.

There are people willing to stand in queue to buy ... just to say they have the "latest & greatest toy"
 
To the average gamer will it really matter?
 
I'd wait for 3rd party reviews on actual performance & to see if the power connection issue has truly been resolved
 
on the flip side looks like the value of the last generation of cards should not just fall off a cliff in price

Yeah. I plan to wait until after the first few months to pick one up. Gotta see if the plugs are going to meltdown. 

I plan on waiting as well, although I do want a 5090....I want to see how the cards shake out for a few months.....
 
2600 is absolutely insane tho...
 

My only thought is and a few words I can't type here , someone has lost their mind
 

 

Looking like my 4090 will be my last top tier GPU with a 5090 costing $2600.  I'm just not going to spend that much on a GPU.  Not only that, but the games I play and at the FPS I typically run, (single player @ ~ 80 - 90 FPS) my 4090 doesn't get used to it's full ability as it is.

Pricing of RTX 5090 laptops will likely exceed $10,000

If the 5090 turns out to be 2600 it will be my last gpu. My 4090 does everything well aside from ray tracing which I don't use.

If this is the case ill just settle buying a new gen AMD graphics card from my 6800XT. No way will I let my wallet get steam rolled by nVidia like that.
