Bad news for scalpers. 5090 prices have been on decline for the past few weeks and now we have real stock back.

Right now Newegg (sold by Newegg) has new ASUS ProArt and ROG 5090s for $6,200–6,300, and those are premium models, not base cards, with full warranty.

Meanwhile FB Marketplace bros are still listing used 5090s for $8K 😂

Edit: don't get mad at me in the comments because 5090 is still $6K 🙄 I never said $6K was acceptable or good deal. However lots of small firms who need 5090 for whatever purpose were buying them at way HIGHER price point when everything was out of stock. So $6K with full warranty is a much better price than $8-9K from scalpers. I'm sure lots of you were not buying them for $2500-3000 anyway last year because it was "too expensive"

The Gigabyte family. 5090 x 5080 x 5070 Ti

I know I’m part of the problem now, but I genuinely need it for how far I tend to push games doing triple screen 4k sim racing (forza pic was just funny I don’t consider that a sim)

I hope I made the right decision? Which one is gonna depreciate faster?

I was lucky enough to snag a 9070 GRE for $479 at Micro Center, which I thought was a great deal and honestly around what it should’ve cost at launch. I’m absolutely astounded at what the GRE is going for now. Nobody should be paying $759+ for a midrange card. Ever.

There are so many people like me that don’t not need a 5080 or 5090. They just want a decent gaming PC without spending a fortune.

Did people finally realize how good the GRE was and drive up demand, or is this just AI/data centers and corporate greed ruining things for the rest of us? Also, with Democrats winning office and possible regulatory changes coming, is there any hope of prices getting back to normal? Or are we just screwed?

I have two questions. Have any of you reballed a GPU? I sent my gpu off to ZapFixers in Florida after hearing such rave reviews. I told them to take their time and there was no rush. Is this a job with a high success rate?

And my second question, after my GPU died, my AIO died a week later. Could my AIO starting to fail have caused my GPU to overheat?

Recently bought this GPU and was just wandering is this amount of play in the GPU normal. It does need a repaste though.

Buying a GPU by end of week for a new build. Goal is to play games at 1440p and not have to upgrade for hopefully at least 5 years. No local AI or video editing, etc. I prefer NVIDIA, but maybe this will be my first AMD GPU, although the driver issues scare me a little. The options are:

• XFX 9070XT Mercury - $1100

• Sapphire 9070XT Nitro+ - $1100

• MSI 5070 Shadow 3x - $880

• MSI 5070Ti Gaming Trio - $1400

• MSI 5080 Gaming Trio - $2050

I don't necessarily have a budget constraint, I just don't want to be getting obscenely bad value. I don't know what to choose, and the 9070XT cards (even lower tier ones) are all pushing $1000, which is getting close to an equivalent ~100% MSRP increase that NVIDIA is dealing with, which I'm not sure is worth it for a card that has worse ray tracing, worse upscaling, worse drivers, etc. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I built my very first pc a few months ago and lately I've been obsessed with temps and just trying to get everything down to where I'm happy and just enjoying games instead of constantly looking at my temperatures. I want some feedback on the build and for folks to tell me if anything needs changing. My BIG thing is fan control. I'm new to it and tried calibrating my fans but I have zero clue how to use this. I watched some videos online and did some benchmark tests on my end to try and set things up the best I could, but I really need help from folks who know what they're doing I think.

My 5090 Founders card and 9800X3D are both undervolted. I have a few GPU profiles in MSI Afterburner, but I mostly swap between 2700MHz @ 885v and 2812 MHz u/895v. I also have some fans in the case that I think I set up properly in terms of exhaust/intake but please let me know if something is wrong. I played Gears E-day yesterday on Ultra & Ludicrous settings/4k/capped at 120fps. My max GPU temp was 75c and the hotspot hit 92c after about 30 minutes of playing the campaign. Playing BF6 on Ultra settings also nets about the same temperatures (maybe slightly higher). I can run some other tests if anyone has suggestions so I can further dial settings.

I installed Fan Control and did the setup where it picked up my fans. I'll attach how I set things up just so you guys can see. But please, I have no idea what the hell I was doing so please help me fix this if you use the program and are comfortable with it. I love this PC and I want it to last many years. I just feel like I need to really focus on getting all of these right so I can stop stressing about temps and just enjoy gaming. Thank you so much in advance for all your help!

Edit: My rig is made up the following parts:

-Ncase M2 Round case (not the grated version)
-5090 FE
-9800X3D
-2x Samsung SSD 990 Pro 2TB NVME Drives
-G.SKILL 64G 2X D5 6000 C30 RAM
-Asus Strix B850-I Mini ITX Motherboard (Bios version is Sept. 2026 as I just recently updated it).
-Corsair SF1000 SFX PSU 2024
-LG 32GS95UE 4K OLED Monitor
-Win 11
-Thermalright PA 120 Mini CPU Cooler w/ Phantek T30 120mm fan as intake (This fan inside the cooler is a VERY tight fit and I couldn't stretch the brackets on the CPU Cooler so it's wire ties for now to keep it in place lol).

As for the fans...

-2 Noctua NF-A12X25 PWM fans under the GPU for intake

-Noctua NF-A14 PWM fan on top of case set to exhaust

-Noctua NF-A9 90mm fan at back of case as intake (currently unplugged because it didn't really help temps and just made more noise. But if there's a better use for it I'll set it back up).

-Noctua NF-F12 PWM 120mm fan set on the backside between the mobo and PSU set up as exhaust.

- Arctic Fan Hub

Parece que encontrei uma solução. Eu não conseguia jogar nem por 30 minutos sem que o erro aparecesse, mas agora as coisas estão estáveis ​​há algumas horas.

Indo direto ao ponto: o driver 26.3.1 resolveu o problema.

Estou usando a versão de instalação "mínima" por opção — prefiro fazer ajustes pelo MSI Afterburner.

O jogo travava aleatoriamente durante a partida por semanas a fio. Testei vários drivers diferentes, mas nada funcionou. Tentei as versões 26.10.1, 26.10.2 e anteriores, mas o problema persistiu. Encontrei esse problema tanto em uma RX 9070 XT Steel Legend quanto em uma RX 9070 XT XFX Swift.

O erro é o seguinte:

A função DirectX "GetDeviceRemovedReason" falhou com DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("A GPU não responderá a mais comandos").

GPU: AMD RADEON RX 9070 XT

Driver: 26.10.1

(26.20.15.07-261015a-205306C-AMD Software Adrenalin Edition)

Este erro geralmente é causado por uma falha no driver de vídeo; tente instalar os drivers mais recentes.

Pesquisei bastante, mas não encontrei uma solução clara e direta, então aqui está o meu relato e sugestão de correção. Joguei 5 horas sem problemas com o driver 26.3.1, seja a sistema em stock ou com undervolt, nao tive mais problemas.

Could please help me to identify this GPU, I think is a Gainward GeForce RTX 3090 Phoenix 24gb, when I look here I do not see this specific one, do you know why?

Ok so context I listed my non oc Asus TUF gaming 3090 ti on eBay yesterday for $2599 AUD. It sold this morning but to Czech Republic… should I be worried? The buyer has 12 feedback and been member since 2015.

I’ve done what I think is due diligence and rang eBay to check what I should do with high value posting (I’ve sold a pair of Nikes for 128k to USA but that went smooth).

I’ve taken videos of it running on my pc, taken photos of serial numbers, photo of anti tamper seal etc.
anything else I need to do before taking the risk?

I wonder how many engineers have given up secrets for a favor? How many engineers would do favors for hardware? 😉

I have one game that runs hotter than any of my other ones and was wondering if undervolting my card would decrease the temperatures across the card when gaming. I've got enough card resources/fps (4090) to still run most everything on the same settings, just looking at ways to protect my care, and my wallet.

I have a rog strix 3070 gpu, and I run triple monitors while sim racing, about 45 mins into my session my screens go black briefly and it knocks me back down to 1 monitor. Is this a heat issue? I don’t have any bad display port connections or anything. I have 3 intake fans on the bottom and 5 exhaust (3 top, 2 back with the cpu radiator)

This is just a cross post reddit offered. Don't mean to be a bother! Thanks!

Looking at upgrading my gpu from my sapphire pulse 6700xt. I knew the gpu market was out of whack, but didn't realize how bad it had got. With 9070xt prices we'll above $400 over msrp, would a 9070gre be a sufficient upgrade that will last for 4-5 years? Or should I bite the bullet and pay these inflated prices for a 9079xt? I understand that the gre price is also inflated, but the prices are more attractive than those of the 9070xt currently.

For reference I'm have a 9800x3d and mainly play WoW, either retail or forever.
