I think you need to re-math. If $24,000 is middle class than damn. Also the solution to not getting served is to not got married .
because if ur a numb nut like me who decided to upgrade his system last year, and needs a videocard because he promised his brother his 4090, then were SOL.
no one really assumed scalpers could hold out this long, but again, no one assumed nvidia would have a pole in there rear and hold inventory for AI farms more then appealing to the small audience.
I think this is more a ploy on the AI farms to prevent homebrew AI systems from being made and taking AI off private, so they can data farm every question imaginable, like "how can i please my wife to allow me to buy a 5090 without getting served divorce papers."
Its still stupidly priced.
I will pay for founders at 1999, anything more then that, then no way.
Thats a down payment on a car, rent payment for some people, and even what most lower class / middle class take home after taxes each month.
It might be the lower end of middle class. He said after taxes, so that's probably over $15/hr (31,200/yr). poverty level is 15.6k in US.I think you need to re-math. If $24,000 is middle class than damn. Also the solution to not getting served is to not got married .
Where have they been that low? The only place I see those prices has been as part of a Newegg combo, although I did see one direct from Asus a while back. I'm at the point where I've been looking at 5070Ti instead, especially when it's been showing up cheaper ar pcpartpicker..The XT's been in stock at $720 but really anything under $800 goes quickly.

I'm not willing to pay that much for a card that launched at $600Amazon had the Asus Prime for $719 an hour ago. Newegg had the same model yesterday.

Should drop by the time the super cards are releasedThe $600 was a Fake MSRP. You will never see that again. $700 is the Real MSRP.
Never say never. AMD cards have a habit of dropping below MSRP and we're only a couple of months in to its approximately 2 year life span.The $600 was a Fake MSRP. You will never see that again. $700 is the Real MSRP.

I was going to pull the trigger but ended up just going with a 4070ti super from the used market. Got scared off by all the issues.Aren't the 5XXX series still having massive amounts of issues? I don't know why anyone would sink that kind of money into something so faulty.
Maybe pick one of these up next year if they are confirmed to be reliable and I switch over to a 4k monitor. Still using 1440p like a peasant.I just noticed on my local Amazon that Gigabyte 5080 cards shipping from Amazon UK and Amazon Germany are the lowest priced among all the AIB models. Guess the leaky thermal putty controversy is hurting their sales.
I'm seriously tempted but then, it seems like a really bad idea if they are releasing 5080 24GB soon. So waiting seems prudent.

-All it takes is one good generation at reasonable prices and NV will have gamers eating out of their hands again.
Well, "reasonable prices" (by most people's perspective here) ain't happening. Even if the lower end Rubin uses Samsung 2 nm, all that will do is widen the performance gap with the higher end models (which presumably will use N3P).
I find it really hard to get excited about this.those eyeing an RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB model presently have slim pickings, but with some searching, they can be found for ~$550 (MSRP $429).
Some NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series Inventory Woes Appear to Be Ending as Online Stock Nears MSRP
It's starting to look as if things are finally getting better for folks hoping to upgrade to one of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs.www.thefpsreview.com
Yeah same here, I want a new card. I don’t want to pay $500+ for it.I find it really hard to get excited about this.
Obviously not your fault, but still. My attention is still on the ~$300-$350 price point where the 6800/3060/7700XT have ruled for years and years no. I find this to be the sweet spot when taking a serious pass at building a "quality" $1k PC where you don't intentionally cheap out on things to try to min-max the GPU.
Insert meme of me poking it with a stick saying "do something"
You can play all the games on those cards but come on, lets see something new.
