Nvidia Blackwell RTX 5000 GPUs may debut earlier than expected::undefined
Hope they either suck less or are less expensive than the 4000 series. Both would be great, but that for sure won’t happen
I’m sure they won’t be any cheaper. Nvidia can be as greedy as they want given the low competition they have.
And with the 4000 Series it worked so damn well. 4090s sold like sliced bread
It’s just frustrating that mining has made it effectively impossible to buy a higher end video card at anything even approaching a reasonable price.
So I should apply for a 2nd mortgage to get that ball rolling?
Fuck nVidia, I hope AMD’s MI3000 eats their AI lunch so they can go crawling back to the gaming table. Motherfuckers.
I’m too old, I’ve seen too many generations come full cycle to 5x nomenclatures, first Voodoo (just the once:'(), Radeon like two or four times (bcs reasons), now GeForce is going for the third.
I need an upgrade and I will buy Nvidia’s latest thise time (instead of AMD).
The question is, when? How long should I wait after it releases to not be an early-tester?
Blackwell… How do they come up with these names. :)
The architectures are named after scientists. This one is for the mathematician David Blackwell.
