The first salvo of RTX 50 series GPU will arrive in January, with pricing starting at $549 for the RTX 5070 and topping out at an eye-watering $1,999 for the flagship RTX 5090. In between those are the $749 RTX 5070 Ti and $999 RTX 5080. Laptop variants of the desktop GPUs will follow in March, with pricing there starting at $1,299 for 5070-equipped PCs.

    No one should, video graphics haven’t progressed that far. Only the lack of optimisation has.

      You’re missing a major audience willing to pay $2k for these cards, people wanting to run large AI language models locally.

          That is another audience & good point. There are people that want these though for other uses than gaming.

        I’m willing, but unable :'(

        Someday I’ll be able to run something cool like that Deepseek v3 model or something. Probably when they figure out how to run them well in regular RAM, I have a shit ton of that at my disposal. Stupid VRAM. (Maybe they’ll start coming out with GPUs with slotted VRAM lol)
