Unless you can get another FE card those are the prices you'll see .

I'm not thrilled with my AMD card, but it's good enough to continue my Nvidia boycott for the time being

Seems like a good deal, relatively speaking of course.

ZOTAC GeForce RTX 5080 GPU + WD SN850X 2TB SSD + CORSAIR RM850e PSU

$1700.

Not gaming-related, but this feels like semi-big news.

Oof my system has been randomly black screening while the video card fan goes to 100%.. even had the card RMA'd but it still happens.. and I've got a 5900X so I've been thinking it might be time to update. I don't do much heavy stuff on my PC anymore so was thinking of a 9800X3D but that's super tempting.

The loveliness of current nvidia drivers is what it is now. I ONLY for the first time this year got the 4090 working right again .I rebuilt my system, I wiped windows , tried every driver from 4090 release date and finally got it to work again without black screens . I couldn't get it not to black screen Until on day I was like what is my wife's pc using for an nvidia driver? Used that one and boom . Been solid for a week now. Which is funny because I swear I tried that driver like a dozen times previously and would black screen instantly .

This could potentially suck. I wonder if my lifetime premium will still be honoured.
