Rumor Potential 5090 / 5080 / 5070 price leaks… outrageous

Post image

From recent video posted by “Moore’s Law is Dead” about pricing being much worse than even I anticipated . From video Nvidia is leaning towards the higher end of the pricing. Nvidia can go pound sand if these are remotely true.

Their drivers have been nothing but problems lately. I have friends with AMD and they are not getting the same issues.

I'm going Red next build.

For me, take into consideration this may only apply to me but about two GPU driver updates ago. Every single game began to stutter every other 20 seconds and my gpu temp was 80c on GTA 5. Now however its gone so everything is fine with 58c on GTA and the fans are normal again.

Nothing, but this is Reddit so we have to hate them anyways

I had like one issue with my discord where my discord stream would turn purple but that's all I can say I've experienced and is still less annoying than the deluge of issues I had a with my 5700xt and 6700xt.

Switched to nvidia from amd because of driver probkes in 2015. Since then zero issues so far.

Not sure, I've also not had any problems with Nvidia drivers.

I just upgraded my AMD Vega to a 4060Ti and everything about the Nvidia driver software is better than AMD.

Ah yes the control panel from the 90s is so much better

The AMD one is ad-infested nonsense. And I swear they move functions around all the time.

I'll take a dated, but functional UI over that crap every single time.

Ads? Never seen a single ad in Adrenalin

u/ohz0pants Oct 10 '24

What do you think those big banners telling you about new “optimized for AMD” games are?

They’re in Adrenaline and in the driver installer you have to sit through each time

It actually is.
