Yeah

You sold the 5080?

 

[Draugoth]

8GB VRAM RTX 6060 for $999 and you will buy it.

Expecting +10% more performance for +33% power usage but hey, a small 1.2x boost in all ray tracing features and 16x AI Cores compared to the 5000 series.

You can't hate AI enough:

What do you typically do with them once you move on? My cousin benefits off me. He has my old 3080TI and will eventually get this 4090. Lucky bastard.

Donate my old PCs and parts to my wife's old High School's PC lab that has an ESports program as well as just building and working on PCs

You sold the 5080?

Still have it in another PC

I want know about rdna5. Moving from 4080 to rdna5 If perf is at least 50% more.

If Rdna 5 has a card that's even like 10% faster than the 5090, I'll move to it if it doesn't use these stupid 12vhpwr connectors.

 

[Tertullian]

6000 is also the price

EDIT: And the number of units shipped to retailers

Only positive of this series is that Nvidia saw 8gb cards sold like complete garbage in the last year, so at the very least mid-tier is going to be 12gb+.

Still doubt they'll over better value than AMD in the mid-tier though, especially as AMD closes the RT + AI gap.

 

[FIREKNIGHT2029]

I might a get a 6090 but maybe even hold off for a 7090 depending on how prices are and how well my 4090 holds up. I suspect my 4090 will still be kicking ass in 2027.

Their mid tier products are 12 GB right now.

I think the 6060 will be 9.

Not all of them.

The RTX 5060ti has 8gb models, and the laptop 5070 still has 8gb.

I just think it's weird they exist this way when my gtx 1070 back in the day had 8gb of vram, and the Intel B580 has 12gb of vram at a $250 price point.

That's part of the Shrinkflation. IO doesn't scale well much if at all now, plus less chips. Makes it that much more expensive. They had 1 GB chips back then, it's only 2 now.

Yeah it completely retarded on Nvidia's part to still use 8GBs even for low ends.

At min it should be 12GB. The default 3060 being 12gb was fair and a default 5060 should have been 16gb.

I do think the 6000 series will be a decent jump since it'll be coming around the next gen consoles 2027 which is usually when the jump gets somewhat decent.

The absolute lowest like a 6050 ti should be 12gb and even the normal 6060 should be 16gb at that point.

It doesn't seem like the market cares though, because the variants of those same cards that offered 16gb dramatically outsell them, and the price gab between them now are so marginal the 8gb offerings are worthless imo. Like on Newegg there are 16gb 5060ti models that are only $20-30 more expensive than 8gb variants.

You're so rich, let me suck you dry


The 5090 needs DLSS to reach 60FPS and more when path tracing is on max details (Alan Wake 2).
But is that reason enough for a new generation?

I know they won't fucking do it, but what i really want is a card that draws less energy, so where back to manageable power draws. One of the main reasons I went for a 5080. If the 6090 is the same or more than the 5090 then im looking at the lower cards again. My room gets enough hear as it is.

 

[manfestival]

I guess this means my 4090 is gonna be obsolete. Maybe now I can finally get away from 1080p gaming and move into 1440p gaming
