NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 5090 & RTX 5080: How far has the market launch gone and will it benefit? 202 comments
GeForce RTX 50 is the topic of the week – again and again. This Sunday there is an almost huge questionnaire for the market launch of GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080: How (poor) do you find the GeForce RTX 5080, how (miserable) is the availability and who wants to return the GEFORCE RTX 4090?

GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 are “released”
New week, New GeForce RTX 50. After the debut of the GeForce RTX 5090 (test), the turn of the GeForce RTX 5080 was the second smallest Blackwell model at the moment. In the detailed test report of the GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition, Wolfgang has again compiled all kinds of results and benchmark analyses, which is also available on the CB radio article at the same time. Fabian and Jan discuss the new GPU and their position in the market and at least Jan was not only disappointed, but also positively and negatively surprised.

The market launch of the two new GeForce graphics cards was carried out on Thursday, at least on paper. Because availability can hardly be said on weekends and in view of the next few days. An improvement should not be expected quickly with the current Chinese New Year and therefore the decline in factories.
GeForce RTX 50 ensures long faces for gamers
GeForce RTX 50 disappointed with low multi-performance to the predecessor, at best stagnation of efficiency, a zero vram turn in the weakest Geforce of the 80s, as well as on the stopping point of the FPS-Pro ratio Euro and the miserable availability, which is No wonder scalping plan calls – that is, buyers who buy the low quota on sometimes unfair means and paths in order to soon resell the goods purchased with an overcharge copious.
Subject done, there is nothing to see here? No, because CB radio listeners know: Jan is forcing me into another GeForce RTX 50 Sunday question this week! And he should get it – with a healthy dose of cynicism.
How is the vibe of GeForce RTX 50?
After the school grades of the GeForce RTX 5090 were allowed to be awarded last Sunday – once for the NVIDIA Founder’s Edition (test) and once for the ROG Astral from Asus (test) – Let’s start this week without surprise with the Geforce RTX 5080. Custom designs in the test, there are no longer multiple surveys, but this time just one for the overall package. How do you judge?
Also analogous to last week, the upgrade path question follows. If you plan to upgrade to the GeForce RTX 5080, which graphics card will you upgrade to? You are welcome to specify in the comments which GPU you have in the computer exactly before the planned RTX 5080 upgrade.
The GeForce RTX 5080 is the first GeForce GPU in the 80s class that fails to beat the outgoing Top Model for gaming performance. In fact, the new graphics card very clearly misses this goal, the GeForce RTX 4090 remains approx. 20% faster. In the price range below 1,800 euros, NVIDIA has caused a performance downgrade, because the so-called RTX 4090 is no longer well available. What do you think, when will there be GeForce RTX 4090 performance again in a GeForce graphics card that is at the maximum price of the RTX 4090?
Two RTX 50 GPUs have been released, two more episodes in February and March follow AMD with Radeon Rx 9000. Which of the following claims about the new graphics cards can you then?
How did the market launch go for you?
That’s it for the RTX 50 graphics cards themselves; However, the dominant topic of the week is its market launch. And it’s been anything but smooth, at least from the players’ perspective. Already in advance rumors and statements from dealers and even Nvidia pointed out limited availability, in practice the inventory always knew how to undermine already screwed expectations. And you, did you have an RTX 50 graphics card?
On Friday, the reports were loud, the allegedly low shares of the GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 Founder Editions were purchased at Proshop before the official starting signal with the offer of a scalping community on Discord. After sales actually began at 3:00 p.m., gamers were only able to look at the availability of Founders Editions on NVIDIA’s website from “currently not available” to “currently not available.” Proshop refers to Nvidia in a statement, but the manufacturer has not yet commented. What do you think are the consequences?
You can also make some statements on your approval for the RTX-50 GPU market launch or not.
The appearance of RTX 50 in your conclusion
And even more declarations! This time, however, specifically related to you, the members of the computer-based community. What is your reaction to the RTX 50 debut?
GeForce RTX 50 means low additional service, at best efficiency stagnation, zero vram turn in the weakest Geforce of the 80s, as well as disorder of the FPS-Pro-Euro ratio and miserable availability at high prices. Do you remember a generation of graphics cards that stumbled into the market even more disappointed? And if so, which one?
Has GeForce RTX 50 and market launch changed your reputation of Nvidia?
Is GeForce RTX 50 dead for you?
GeForce RTX 50 here, the multi-frame generation there – over the past few weeks, the world of gaming and technology has been a little different. What do you think of this?
