Do NOT Buy A GRAPHICS Card Right NOW! 🛑 - Wait For RTX 50 Series, Battlemage, RDNA4 2024

[@Stilloffside]

Just look at the 3000 series. They are nearly as expensive as the 4000 series. So the launch of the 5000 won't instantly cause a drop in price for 4000. That and scalpers and inventory means that any 5000 series that launches will take 6 months minimum to get into most people's hands.

[@Oliver-sn4be]

If y get it from store yes but used I see a 3090 for 600

[@Averagedude-mi3fl]

If you can find them look at the rx 6000 series. For example the rx 6800 has been around for under 400 lately new. Glad I got a 6800xt late last year for 440.

[@TriPBOOMER]

What are you on about?? you can readily pick up a 3090 for £600-£650, that card was £1200+ before the 4000 series, and dropped soon after, the reason the lower in the stack has kept its value is demand, eg. throw a small overclock on a 3060 and you have a 4060 with 12gb vram and no frame gen and for £260, its a no brainer.

[@Averagedude-mi3fl]

@@TriPBOOMERdon’t forget regarding frame generation, I think you can use amds newest versions of fsr and maybe their frame generation tech on the older nvidia cards ironically lol.

[@TriPBOOMER]

@@Averagedude-mi3fl Oh I haven't forgotten Nvidia knows how to 'dress' the appeal of a generation, I mean there might be some BS hardware reason, and that is coming from a Nvidia user. and yes FSR FR is available on 3000 series and earlier, but ironically it probably works better on a 3000 series Nvidia, purely because of Reflex+ to help with its latency

or just buy a card now that is still going to be hot after the 5000 series release, so if you feel like it you can sell the 4000 series card, get about 60-70% of the money back, and just pay a little extra to get the higher end card later. lets say you buy 4070ti now for 800$, sell it for 600$ when the 5000 series come out, so you've only lost 200$

It's got AI!!!!! F_____ yeah!!!!!", e) power connectors that self combust (if only users didn't connect them badly...sigh.), f) New CPU architectures offering a 20% speed increase with a 40% price hike against the current market options, g) GPU's touted as orgasmically awesome...but still incapable of running the latest games without upscaling, h) Shit bugger all VRAM allocation on GPU's so you gotta upgrade in 3 years, even if the next cycle of cards offers pissy performance increases. I) rebadging last years shit products with a +1 gen label, so you can charge more on this 'new product'. Yep, keep releasing those awesome products IT industry, no one has noticed that we as consumers are getting completely screwed over, minus the pleasure, year after year.

[@kyleschulze4557]

the issue is that customers need to stop purchasing overpriced hardware. If Nvidia keeps doing what they have been it won't be long until you start having $4000 or $5000 GPUs. In almost every other industry that is not the standard. You can't just raise the price every year and some years have major increases. Since other industries tend to lower the price of their current lineup to make way for the new lineup, which are priced at an identical price of the previous years lineup. This works because people will need to eventually buy these products anyway and the company makes profit on them, while still keeping to the same price. Nvidia on the other hand, raises the prices every year by well over what any inflation and supply chain increases could be. while minimally reducing the prices of their prior flagship lineup. They can get away with this because "gamers" tend to buy the products no matter what the cost and no matter how little the increase to the prior years products. That paired with crypto mining and AI is why we are in the situation we are today. IMO Nvidia should do something similar to the low hash rate cards but for AI, to limit the number of "gaming GPUs" being used for other things like AI and Crypto mining. That way they can then push out more of there extremely expensive AI cards. While leaving their gaming GPUs in a spot where they are still affordable at the cost of them not being able to be used for literally everything.

I would say YES for sure. Theres no question that the 5090 is gonna have even higher MSRP - not to mention actually higher prices because of scalperes and demand. At the moment we are in the situation where the new gen doesn't just replace the last gen with roughly the same prices but the new gen is way more expensive meaning that the last gens prices won't drop asmuch. Now if the new card costs same then you probably won't be able to get it for a long time. If its way more expensive a lot people then go for the 4090 and the ones allready having them won't sell them. The outcome is same - the demand for the 4090 raises and the price won't drop. Best deal would be to get second hand card from someone who is thinking of getting 5090 and selling their 4090 now for good price in fear of 5080 being faster for a 1300$ - so they are willing to selle the 4090 for like 1300 or even less.

Just got a 4070 ti super, this things a beast at 1440p. I feel like if I waited like 6 more months for the 5000 series, I’d maybe save like 200. Honestly not worth the wait in my case. Somehow its considered a midrange card but it doesn’t even feel like it

[@GoodBoy-io6fd]

I want NVidia to lower their prices for the up coming RTX 50 Series! Not all players will buy graphics cards that will costs $700 and above! NVidia should not forget to create Graphics Cards that only costs lower than $200 but can handle mid - high graphics options at 1440p 2K. If they will price the 5090 and 5080 and will release the Ti immediately, I want NVidia to stop their hedious pricing scheme! Once they lower their graphics card price including those high-end flagship cards they will have more control of the market, more sales means more success and they will get back the trusts of their fans even non NVidia fans might side with them! An additional problem that adds to its high price from mid - flaghship cards are the SCALPERS! NVIDIA STOP THIS PRICING SCHEME THIS IS LIKE SCAMMING PEOPLE! We all know that you can lower your graphics card price BUT STOP TAKING AVANTAGE OF PEOPLE!

The only way we will see +80% is if you count fake frames as performance, which it definately is not, especially for the lower end. Fake frames are only useful over 60 fps and that is when you care more about input latency, which fake frames do not improve, rather the opposite. If Radeon does not compete Nvidia will follow Intels 14nm +++++++ strategy. $1799 RTX5090 at +10% over the RTX4090.

While this does make perfect sense remember you current graphics card will be dropping in value...so you might not want to wait ;) I recently got a 4070 TI SUPER selling my 2080 TI for about £350 I won't be upgrading to series 5, but maybe 6 or 7 again when my GPU is still worth some money!

[@Foxxie55]

That's the problem, a person does not know how much they will cost, or if they can get them when they do come out.. I'm wanting to get a MB and CPU now, but I see that Intel 13 and 14K are disintegrating. I'm wondering if it's the CPU or the MB's settings that they are using.

[@fer6010]

There's a better reason for keeping your old card: AI. NVidia is full on this new trend, and nobody knows where the market is going to be in a few years, starting from now. Announced CPUs are getting a NPU. Also a high amout of productivity software is now using AI routines (mind of Davinci Resolve, Premiere, Photoshop, 3D software, etc) and even games probably will benefit of a good AI processing unit. This means that we are living a paradigm change, so may be new GPUS are not about brute power, but AI oriented market, and what that brings to the gaming world. For example, as rumors say, GTA6 will make broad usage of AI routines to control NPCs in the game, and that single fact could make old cards directly unplayable, or even current gen medium range cards may be the bare minimum to run that kind of games. So with that in mind, I'll wait to see what direction software and game developers are taking for the next 1, 2 or even 3 years.

So I found someone locally selling there 4090 Card and I ended up giving them $900 cash and my RTX3090 card for it. I felt like it was a good deal. Only reason I even wanted to get the card was because, I ordered that Pimax Crystal Light headset and I wanted the best performance I could get. The 5090 card isn't a for sure thing. All Rumors. So if it is released this year. It still won't be available. Because, all the scalpers will buy em up and turn around and sell em for 2x or 3x over MSRP which will probably be overpriced already. So I figured, $900 out of pocket for a 4090 card is good. 😉👌☺️👍

[@gstormcz]

I would be interested for 2x performance over my RX6650XT, then I would still not like power draw jump. I don't expect performance per watt double.👈 Also the reason to go for faster gpu would be probably upgrade from 1440p to 4K which I think is not really a must.👈 Both games I play are online, one of them doesn't even have resolution settings, the other one is competitive, so going for 4K is not good idea. AMD Adrenaline doesn't currently offer RSR in my game, no idea what happened during drivers updates. 👀 Anyway I am interested what next gen going to be both upcoming gpus and cpus. (I hope Intel brings answer to AMD R5 7500f/7600 but better value, it interested pay 2x more for 2x performance over my i3-10100f 😅 That cpu simply frozen my interest even into AMD best value. 12400f doesn't seem that optimal 2x uplift to wow after upgrade.

[@crzyces1693]

The 8GB 4060 is not a midrange card. Anything with 8GB or less is entry level and should not be considered by anyone for more than $200 USD. I suppose if you play lightweight competitive shooters it's fine as an entry point, and will obviously run 2017 and previous games quite well, but in early-mid 2024? Entry level budget builds, in which case why not just grab a 6700XT or a used 3060 12GB for less? Lol, sorry for being nit-picky with the example but I saw 8GB and my cheeks got all red with anger thinking about how Nvidia continues to be stingy as heck with VRAM.

[@daedalus6433]

Got a 3080, waiting for something that can dethrone it in price/performance while also giving a good increase overall. Until then, wanting to look at the 9800X3D to see if I should upgrade from my 5800X

[@mkatakm]

I don't think battlemage will be able to compete with rtx50xx. RDNA4 won't have flagship cards. I recommend skipping rtx50xx completely and wait for RDNA5 if you already have a good enough card.

[@robertmajors1737]

I hope the 50 series keeps up the trend of odd numbered series dominating the even numbered ones. The 20xx and 40xx (except the retardedly priced 4090) cards are garbage. I went from a 1080 ti to a 3080, and probably a 5080 if they price them decently. Also on my wish list is that Nvidia doesn't force aib's to use that abhorrent 12vhpr connector, but i'm sure they will.

[@inqizzo]

Bro what is this ai shit on the thumbnail

[@brianrobinson3961]

New rumors that Nvidia will launch with the 5080 first. I hope this isn’t true but I feel it probably is. They want those Blackwell full dies for AI & datacenter where they get huge margins. Once they have enough binned chips they will release the 5090, probably 1st quarter 2025.

[@SoundFX09]

Honestly, I appreciate the Coverage on this Video, as I'm looking to get something close to Flagship without actually being one. I'm upgrading from a GT 1030, as it was a Placeholder / Backup GPU for a Previous GPU that I ended up selling due to Financial Hardship hitting me sooner than expected. Right now, I'm deciding between a 6900 XT, 6950 XT, and the New 7900 GRE. I'm also dealing with Size Limitations, as the Phanteks P300 Limits my GPU Size to No Larger than 320mm. I'm leaning towards the Powercolor 7900 GRE Fighter, since it's only 290mm Long but still has Triple Fans.

[@Metin..]

Well, I want to assemble a PC for the first time and I don't know if I should wait for the 50 series or buy the 4070 Super, Is there a suggestion?

[@pseudoscientist8010]

RTX 4080 gets you 4k graphics, which is a benchmark. And if you get an RTX 5080 there will be little reason to upgrade, imo.

[@louiienation8497]

Just bought a 4070S 😣

[@mgaming7]

Some like to just stay behind one series just to scoop up the good prices. I almost pulled the trigger on the 7900XT when it had rebate making it $649. Could keep it til the 6000 series came out and got the 5080 on sale.

[@cnieto0162]

I'm ready to move to pc for the first time but I'm ganna wait on RTX 5090
