5080 is actually quite bad generational upgrade performance versus price. Especially if you are sporting 4000 series card. Upgrading from 2000 or 3000 series it might be worth it,
True.
AMD had the option to half their gpu pricing by half ... years ago, but they rather decided to also cash in and still can not (high-end) compete with Nvidia - Very sad.
Hopefully AMD or someone else will be in a stronger position with gpu`s in 10 years.
Years ago I would have chopped my leg off to speak up for Intel, but I hope they don't go bust, filetted into several parts or get bought by a big monopolist.
IMHO Intel had 10 years time to slap fat caches onto their cpus, but the profit greed was always stronger.
Wishing everyone fun in games
Yeah. Agreed. We cant have monopoly on one company. Customers suffer mostly.
From the reviews and tests I have seen the 4090 is still King. True?
The 5090 is currently the top card, but it's not worth the money.
It seems to be shaping up as a "skip it" gen overall.
The point of my question though is the opinion of an actual CS2 player that has the 5090? Likely not? Who would ever waste that cash on a crippled game like this?
Reminds me of Cities XL. That too was a terribly optimized city builder that still runs bad even today, because it's the game that's bad, not that the hardware isn't powerful enough for it.
Badly made games can't be fixed by hardware.
The invisible 5070 was released today to empty shelves like the 5080 and 5090 before it. Nvidia has turned thier back on gamers in favour of making high value high profit chips for the AI market.
Even previous 30 and 40 series cards have now more than doubled in price because of this AI racketeering. The year ahead is going to be 10x worse for gamers than the worst of the mining drought.
Many gamers have have happily accepted the price gouging and are still happy to pay absurd amounts.
Can you blame Nvidia for taking advantage of a bunch of lemmings?
Yes!
The Lemmings who paid the stupid prices to insider scalpers who sucked up the few available units are not the problem, they themselves are simply just brainless morons. I expect to soon see a few of those airheads bragging about how well they run CS2 just as we saw here with the 4090 just a year ago. The real fact is those Lemmings and scalpers are the ones now doing the most complaining that even they cant acquire one.
Only the elite Utube mouthpieces got review samples while the rest of Utube complain they cannot even purchase one because Nvidia focused 99% of capacity toward the AI market which is several times more profitable than us lowly gamer rif-raf. Imagine.....even a regular reviewer cant even test a new GPU, when has that ever been the case? Even during the mining debacle they all got their test units.
I do blame Nvidia 100% for turning their back on the faithful community that made them what they are today, Which is now just another investment driven shareholder revenue stream.
