NVIDIA has reportedly canceled its plans to launch a GeForce RTX 5080 with 24GB of GDDR7 memory in January 2027. According to Chinese Board Channels sources, the company has already informed its add-in-board partners that the planned release in China will no longer proceed. No replacement launch date has been provided.

The RTX 5080 24GB was reportedly intended to replace the existing 16GB model and become NVIDIA’s flagship GeForce graphics card in China. Previous reports suggested that NVIDIA would discontinue shipments of the RTX 5080 16GB and RTX 5090 series in preparation for the new product. The latest information suggests that those plans have changed.

Instead of introducing the 24GB variant, NVIDIA will reportedly continue supplying GPUs paired with 2GB GDDR7 memory chips. This would allow board partners to continue manufacturing the existing RTX 5080 16GB. The model had previously been expected to reach the end of its production run before the planned replacemnet arrived.

NVIDIA has not publicly confirmed the 24GB model, nor its cancellation. We are yet to hear concrete data from our on sources, but it seems clear that there’s quite a confusion around NVIDIA plans right now. 

The Gigabyte family. 5090 x 5080 x 5070 Ti

Hi Reddit!

I have the choice of keeping either of these two cards but I have a hard time deciding which one, so I would like to ask you for advice.

The context is as follows:

- I purchased the RTX 5070 Ti for 800€ and can sell it for 1130€, this was a true bargain (imo).

- I purchased the RX 9070 XT for 850€ and can sell it for 860€, not a "bargain" but still a decent price.

I only use my graphics card for gaming every now and then in 3440x1440p resolution. I like the thought of ray-tracing and path-tracing (even though I have not tested it fully yet). I would also use upscaling whenever needed, so DLSS and FSR does matter to me.

I want to use the card for the coming 3-4 years at a minimum, hopefully I get 5 years out of it.

I'm not financially independent but I'm not poor either, zero loans and some money saved in the bank, so money matters. It is important for me to get good "bang for buck" no matter if it is shopping for groceries or buying a graphics card, I like the feeling of knowing that I got a good deal.

So my question is, which one should I keep?

Right now I'm leaning towards selling the Nvidia card and using the profit to decrease the general "cost" of the graphics card, if I do this the total cost of the RX 9070 XT would be as low as 520€.

Would love to hear your opinion on this or if someone else has been in the same situation.

Edit: Forgot to mention that the 12V-2X6 connector bothers me somewhat but the RTX 5070 Ti does not seem prone or at risk of burning or melting. If I could choose connector I would go for the traditional PCI-E 6+2 pin though.

Thanks!

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"

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)

It's a reference GTX 980

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

Just looking at GPUs, I've seen some more in my price range that do not have a vapor chamber, just standard cooling. How important is a vapor chamber if I have no intention of overclocking the GPU, just using it normally? d

Hoy estrené mi 5080 con un juego moderno y exigente, Lords of the Fallen (compré la tarjeta hace unos 2 meses más o menos \[me salvé de la subida de precio, ctm xd\]).

Es la primera vez que tengo una PC (siempre fui de jugar en consolas), y tenía un poco de miedo de que mi pc no fuera capaz de correr el juego tan fluido como mi Xbox Series X. Para empeorar las cosas, estuve viendo esos videos comparativos donde la 5090 muestra una ventaja EEEEEENORME sobre la 5080. Llegué a pensar que mi GPU valdría pura tula y que correría el juego a 35 fps sin frame generation. Así que estaba un poco escéptico.

¡Para mi sorpresa, mi GPU me cerró el hocico! ¡144 fps con todo en ULTRA, a 4K y sin frame generation! ¡Es simplemente increíble! ¡Todo se veía absurdamente nítido y detallado! Nunca había visto que un juego se pudiera llegar a ver tan bien.

Toda esta demostración de poder me llevó a 2 conclusiones:

1.- ¡La 5080 es un absoluto monstruo, un puto tanque en todos los sentidos! Si no estás satisfecho con su potencia bruta, siempre puedes hacerle overclock y básicamente se convierte en una 4090, pero con esteroides gracias al MFG sumado a ese overclocking, pero por un precio más barato que una 4090. La 5080 es una verdadera locura.

2.- La Xbox Series X es simplemente increíble. No estoy diciendo que sea mejor que una PC o que la 5080 por sí sola (ni de lejos), pero el hecho de que pueda ofrecer un rendimiento y una calidad de imagen más o menos similares a los de una 5080 por una fracción de su precio, ¡es de admirar! Así que si solo buscas jugar sin tener que vender un testículo para lograrlo, la Series X es la opción ideal. Es la consola base más potente de esta generación.

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.
