I ordered a RTX 5090 FE...what have I done?

I hope, that the next flagship card from AMD will be competitive. Even if it gives just 90% of the performance of the 5090 (well, the equivalent next gen card. I won’t upgrade from a 4090 to a 5090).

I’m so done with Nvidia right now. Sick of companies turning evil once they built their empire with the customers they then proceed to kick to the curbs.

They should just split off the GeForce department, then nVidia can focus on AI as much as they want without negatively affecting gamers.

Speaking of a company that forgot where it came from… And AMD isn’t that much better at the moment since they copy nVidia on pretty much everything these days including consumer unfriendly behaviour.

I hope that iNTEL gets their cards (and especially drivers!) working properly so we can have a proper 3rd player.

I’m curious where all these different versions of “Nvidia” come from…
nVidia? 
NVidia?

I've been using nVidia for ages, but it should in fact be nVIDIA. And I remembered "intel" wrong: I've been using iNTEL for ages too.

Personally I don't do ignore lists, but looking around the forum these past few years you're far from the first, and will likely not be the last either

yeah, me neither usually, but I get tempted every now and then….. 

Anyhow, where were we? Ah, yes, bashing NviDiA…..

nVIDIA is the stylized logo text. The written form of the name is Nvidia or NVIDIA.

To be honest this was caused by the Scalpers during covid.

Nvidia saw that the scalpers were able to demand stupid money for the cards and people like mugs paid the overly inflated asking price that the scalpers were asking.

Nvidia took note of this and said if they can do it why can't WE! 

And they have been doing this ever since.

Just waiting for the Ram to turn up now.

Have fun building! I recently built a new PC for myself with the exact same motherboard
