RTX 50 Super: 2026 launch. 24GB VRAM for 5070 Ti & 5080 Super, 18GB for 5070 Super.

>Omissions
RTX 5070: buy if it's reasonably priced & if you plan to work around potential VRAM bottlenecks.
RX 9070 non-XT: worth considering if it's significantly cheaper than the 9070 XT.

Intel 13 & 14th gen i7/9 -K CPUs: BIOS update required due to reliability issues. Recommended to set a CPU VR voltage limit (1.4 or 1.45V).

>Product Notice
PNY RTX 50 cards have QC issues (rattling fans, reports of 5070 & 5090 with blown capacitors)

Gigabyte RTX 50 & RX 9000 video cards: thermal gel has QC issues, Gigabyte claims only early production batches were affected.

battlefield has always performed better on amd since at least bf3/4 because amd and dice collaborated on tech which is why bf4 has mantle api support exclusively on amd cards and mantle went on to become vulkan and dx12. it's one of those games which favours amd hardware, also probably because of consoles.

Quick question, I've been trying to google this but only get shit results.

So I watched a video of some dude 3D printing case parts to create individual air channels to each part that needs cooling and got pretty significant results.

I'm planning to make a desk pc (no see-through panel, so aesthetics isn't as important). Would it be better to separate all the parts to create individual airflows inside the desk or watercool the whole thing?

CPU bottleneck for sure.
Even a 5800X3D can bottleneck the 5070ti in some games. Like it won't be terrible dipping under 60fps but you won't be able to Vsync lock 120fps on a TV because the 1% lows can dip as low as 80.

yeah that's exactly one of the main issues. the 1% lows are absolutely terrible and noticeable it's extremely annoying. i even tried to switch from native 1080p to 1620p 2.25 dlsdr + dlss but the performance and FPS are almost the same

What do anons think about this problem:
https://gmplib.org/gmp-zen5

> We have fried two Ryzen 9950X CPUs in a few months by running GMP tests. This is not expected, of course. In this page, we provide as much information as possible to help analysing the problem.

>What causes these CPUs to die while running GMP is unknown to us. While similar, it is not the widely reported Asrock motherboard problem, as the motherboards we use are of a different make (see below). It might be that the Zen 5 CPUs pull more power than specified when running GMP, or it might be that our cooling solutions are inadequate.

>The 1st failure happened in late winter 2025 (February IIRC). The system was located in a dedicated room in a flat in Stockholm, Sweden. The ambient temperature in the room was low, less than 20°C.

>The 2nd failure happened 2025-08-24 in a dedicated computer room, with ambient temperature just over 20°C.

I have a multi monitor setup of 4x 60hz/24"/1200p/16:10 monitors (Dell 2412M) that are starting to age and one has a dead gnat squished in it. I game, watch movies, and want excellent accuracy/good viewing angles/low ghosting/no burn in AKA fuck OLED. I'm in the market for a new main display specifically. Should I go 16:10 again? upgrade from 24" to 27"? Refresh rate is obviously something that needs an upgrade so I'd say 120HZ+ and whatever synch bullshit is meta right now. I'll be using a 5070 TI.
Would a 16:9 IPS 1440p look retarded next to my old monitors or are they still too big in the peripheral vision to want to game on?

>>106549802
It competes with the 5070 and as an Nvidia loyalist I would have still given a recommendation if 16 VRAM was an important enough to someone and the price was not too much higher, double especially since the Supers are going to require more waitfagging. However the price differential between it and the XT was so small that cheaper brands have XTs at the same price.

The question is why bother selling it for the price it is at? There is a market segment it is filling but it is just out of reach for those in that segment.

The die size of the 9070/XT is around 6% smaller than the $750 5070 Ti & the $1000 5080.
These 9070/XT chips are 36% larger than the 5070's.
All of these chips are using different customizations of the TSMC 5nm node.
AMD doesn't want to destroy their margins, so they are content with keeping the 9070 $600 & the 9070 XT @ $700.

Those US prices are not due to tariffs, NVIDIA has no problems selling their FEs @ MSRP, and their AIBs are selling the entry tier models @ MSRP.

AMD's Epyc & Ryzen CCDs can be made on those custom 5 nm nodes as well, and it's a more profitable business.
AMD doesn't want to flood the market with RX 9000 cards. They'll make more Radeon cards if there's spare production capacity.

>The ASUS XG27ACS in the OP looks to have shit reviews.
People have unrealistic expectations of a monitor that is discounted to $200 fairly regularly.
The monitor got good professional reviews, the RTINGS score is mediocre because it's being compared against the best gaming monitors.

I don't care for ASUS or the ROG brand, but you need to look at miniLED, OLED, or 4K IPS monitors if you want something better than the XG27ACS (value-wise).
I know there are 1440p IPS monitors with better specs, but these are usually priced well above $300 that you might as well consider miniLED monitors.
>>
>>106552552
No such thing as a bad GPU, only a bad price.
Maybe for AI the 4gb would make a huge difference (either it fits, or it doesn't), but this isn't the same as comparing the 5060 TI 8gb vs 5060 TI 16gb because 2x more vram is huge enough to matter for mohun wilds and other slop games (you probably need a 9800x3d anyways to get the best experience, so the 5070 TI is a budget GPU at that point, just get a 5090 to complement the 9800x3d), but the 5070 is fine with 12gb on mohun wilds at like 75fps while the 5070 TI is 90fps (1440p DLSS, medium, no frame gen, you don't get the same low resolution textures as with 8gb).
I bet there are situations where the 5070 TI runs 50% faster than the 5070 (because the 5070 has 30% more vram and the chip is just better), but I would look closely at the vram usage, and if the vram usage is more than 12gb, you need to take the benchmark with a grain of salt that it's biased towards high vram usage, and with lower settings the gap will be narrower.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAXyntHZI-0
So that means if the 5070 is 20% better than the 5070 TI on average for games that fit in the 5070, if $500 for a 5070 is fair, $600 for a 5070 TI should be fair, but if the game is running with more than 12gb of vram, it could approach 50% more FPS, a 5070 TI should cost $750 (but I have not seen the 5070 run 50% faster even if the vram used is above 12gb, probably because the games just reduce the vram usage and less vram usage = lower quality textures = higher fps so it just balances out, the game looks different but not as different as 8gb of vram).

EVGA's GeForce GPU business became unsustainable, so the owner of the company decided to shut it all down after they made 10 years' worth of profit during a single year of COVID-19 lockdowns.
EVGA relied on an OEM to assemble their GPUs, and that added cost made it hard to compete against other AIBs with in-house manufacturing capabilities and NVIDIA's Founders Edition cards.
NVIDIA also kept reducing AIB's margins because from NVIDIA's pov, the AIBs just assemble finished parts in a PCB.

Many other AIBs use an OEM. Kinda have to unless you want to spool production capacity and only have it sit idle once demand dies. Asus is confirmed to use Lite-on for mobos.
AIBs are also using OEMs to avoid tariffs, it's why lots of GPUs are coming from Vietnam as opposed to China or Taiwan

All GPU vendors had their own plants at one point, It's kind of what made AIBs important as they had that infrastructure.
The business has changed however. There are many OEMs with the ability to make high-end PCB assemblies.
It's part of the reason Nvidia made the margins so thin on GPUs as AIBs are somewhat replaceable.

There's hardly any margin left to share with an OEM when we're talking about NVIDIA cards.
You're just assuming ASUS outsourced their GeForce manufacturing because Lite On assembles their motherboards; the business arrangement is completely different with NVIDIA.
>AIBs are also using OEMs to avoid tariffs
They can own those companies as their subsidiaries, like how ASUS has majority ownership of ASRock.

>There's hardly any margin left to share with an OEM when we're talking about NVIDIA cards.
There is when you sell GPUs $1000 over sticker to offset from the tiny margins on MSRP cards.
Using OEMs is pretty standard practice nowadays. EVGA was just the one transparent enough to let that info out.
>>
>>106553423
>There is when you sell GPUs $1000 over sticker to offset from the tiny margins on MSRP cards.
And you keep more of that margin for yourself if you keep an in-house assembly. You cut the middleman out.
Especially if you're capable of producing 200K video cards per week.
>>
>>106553441
It's not just about margin.
Owning your own SMT line if fine but it becomes a liability when demand ebbs and flows. Companies have long since figured this out and is why even the cheapest garbage low margin devices have outsourced assembly.
>>
>>106553503
>but it becomes a liability when demand ebbs and flows
Except NVIDIA and their partners are getting better at ending GPU production early to manage those demand cycles.
NVIDIA's also being more lenient with how much AIBs can charge for their video cards.

I'm on Asrock B850 Riptide
is it worth to undervolt 9600x or will AMD tell me it was my fault it eventually burned down?
>>
Ryzens are supposed to run HOT, right? My 9600 runs at up to 85C when I really load it, usually idles around 50C, which is below tjmax=95, but waaaaaaay higher than anything my old i5-10400f ran at, I'm talking 15C higher across the board.
The Ryzen even has a MASSIVE cooler rated for up to 250W. Forgot what exact model I got, but it's a BeQuiet something Pro. (((BlackRock))) Pro or whatever.
Would disabling the AMD iGPU in the bios help? I've seen that as a tip online. My old Intel didn't have an iGPU.

Xenoblade 2 & 3 are notoriously broken on emulators. It's just those two for some reason. 1 and X are just fine. You also need mods to disable the dynamic res for 2 or go higher than 30fps but it also makes the game retarded demanding on any CPU except X3D.

Nothing. At 120hz 60fps you'll just have every frame displayed twice. And VRR will adapt to whatever framerate on the fly anyway.

That the 9070 pulls 3090 performance is actually pretty nice.

Reminder that AMD users have to live with worse image quality because they don't have access to DLSS4.
9070XT might be more powerful than 5070, but the 5070 will probably look better and run just as well as the 9070XT, at DLSS Balanced vs FSR Quality.
>>
>>106552362
On VRR lower refresh rate doesn't hurt the image. You will just notice it chugging because the screen will now be updating slower, simply as fast as your GPU is outputting frames, then you'll just realize how slow 60 FPS actually is. If you set the global max framerate limit to slightly below your VRR max then you will also never have to worry about tearing ever again.

Not sure, I can just sell my current CPU for full price, as I build an office PC, so I was wondering if I should go for a 7700 (non-X) that's the same price as my 7600X or should I just go full retard and invest into an X3D.
>>106554603
I play BF titles, Warzone 2 and WUWA, the latter does not require anything demanding, but the FPS games would benefit from a faster CPU I think. Well, I guess X3D does not worth the extra, I might just swap the 7600X to a 7700, because I sometimes render stuff, so the extra 2 cores are quite useful in Lightroom and games.

Why is the 11900k still going for 400 dollars? Would need to get one to replace my 10900k which doesn't support PCIE 4.0. Nearly a 5 year old CPU at this point and it costs nearly as much as 9800x3d or the 9950x3d both of which I'm interested in for a new build.

AMD cards are usually more popular, though still not /as/ popular as Nvidia, in niche enthusiast communities. You ought recall that DIY PCs are <10% of the market. Indeed, personally owned PCs are probably a mere plurality of the total in the survey; internet cafes and the like.

It's EoL so stock is limited - try Ebay. What are you doing with the PC btw? I ask because most anything that needs PCIe4 also needs multicore perf. so dropping to 8c might not be worth it.

>I'll also look into a 7900XT.
Definitely dont do that. Its an objectively worse 7900XTX and wont be getting any decent upscaling anytime soon (same with the XTX). Just get a 9070 XT and give yourself some future proofing for about the same price you were mentioning in your initial post

Most likely explanation is AMD doesn't make as many RX 9000 cards because they generate more profit producing other chips >>106552958
The 9070 XT's chip is almost as big as the 5070 Ti & 5080's, which sell at a higher margin.
AMD was burned badly with all the unsold RX 7000 cards they had to discount.
The majority of AMD's gaming revenue comes from selling console APUs.

Three potential things as of right now, convert to a some sort of media server and have a decent CPU (GPU too?) to do real time encoding, keep it as a secondary standard PC because I don't want to uninstall all the shit I've setup over the years (I should create an image) or keep on using it as my primary while I wait for AM6 or maybe even that fabled new CPU from AMD - I would like to benefit for additional storage. Embarrassingly I had a non functional NVME ssd plugged in it for years that I was just too lazy to remove - though I finally did.
>try Ebay
Yeah, along with my bitching post I also took a look at ebay, some prices worse, some prices better though the better ones are all used. Unless someone was horribly abusing the CPU I don't think there should be any issues.
>>
>>106555886
None of that sounds like it needs PCIe4. Did you buy a 500-series board which disables the M.2 slot when a 10th gen CPU is installed? If so a BIOS update might enable it - worth checking before spending any money.

Yeah worth a look. In the unlikely event you do brick your board you can get one that works with 10th gen for less than an 11900K. Alternatively, buy a PCIe-NVMe adapter card if you have spare slots. I don't see much value in upgrading a 10900K system just yet unless you're super into UE5 AAAslop.

Except the 7900 XTX has more transistors than the 4080/Super & 5080, and the 7900 XTX is slower than all three of those cards according to that "fastest gpus" post.
In fact, the 7900 XTX's GCD itself has almost as many transistors as the entire 4080 or 5080 GPU.

AMD will focus on selling mainstream gaming APUs in the future and leave dGPUs to the more profitable high-end cards.

>>
>>106557191
Current printers are extremely beginner friendly and not even that expensive. You don't have to level the print bed manually anymore and shit like that.
Grab a Bambu A1 Mini, it has 180x180x180mm build volume, plenty if you're starting out and you can grab a bigger machine later if you like it.
For filament (the stuff you feed into it to print with) you can just start with "PLA" (i recommend aliexpress, brands like sunlu or yayo, because the quality is good at half the price than other places)
And you don't even need to learn modeling (it's useful tho), there are insanely big repositories of models from where you can just download stuff.
Many people just buy a printer and print a door stop and that's it, but the utility is very good, eventually you'll get used to "wait i can just print this", the HDD caddy I printed would've costed like 20-30$ in a store, and I printed it for like... 3$ of filament at max

AMD will only make the higher margin discrete gpus in the future.
They can already make an APU with a six core Zen 4 CPU + mobile RX 7600 GPU.
These APUs will only get better and eventually displace lower margin video cards.
