Being based in New Zealand, the XX90 cards come with a significant markup and are wholly unaffordable. They’re priced at about 8% of the median pre-tax salary. I built an entire premium sim rig for less than the cost of a 4090.

It should be DOA but it’ll still sell out for the next couple of months. Think my 3080 will need to last 2 more years unless there is a 5080 ti that uses cut down 5090 dies.

lol. I searched “nvidia 570 Linux” less than a week ago and nada. Just did it again based on you comment and it looks like it was released 2 days ago.

You’re an absolute legend! Thanks for the heads up.

VRR that works with multiple monitors connected. Unfortunately that’s an Nvidia driver issue rather than a missing Linux protocol, so could be waiting a while.

I’ve recently switched to Fedora KDE running version 6 and HDR looks great. Well worth the wait.

For those that hit the paywall.

Get ready for private … roads

Yes, because Australia has proven that privately owned toll roads are sooooo profitable without the government guaranteeing returns. /s

Assuming you’re primarily interested in gaming performance; wait for reliable 3rd party non-DLSS benchmarks.

From the Nvidia presentation, the 5070ti looks great, but the performance uplift over previous gen in their slides pretty much only applies to games with frame generation. Not every game will implement DLSS 4 let alone DLSS. You may still need the better rasterisation of the 5080 depending on your monitor resolution and desired fps.
