I have a 3080 and just want the same thing with more vram. Nothing is ever in stock or insanely overpriced. Guess I'll just have to deal for a while. 🤷‍♂️

If one needed a reason to skip.

"Most of these games with optional PhysX support do very heavy PhysX calculations, which screws performance. Borderlands 2 is a prime example of this, I can just shoot a gun at a wall with PhysX forced on through a config file, and it'll drop to sub-60 FPS on a 5090."


"I went ahead and downloaded the Cryostasis Tech Demo. I remember that tech demo running smoothly as hell with the RTX 4090. So, how does it run on the NVIDIA RTX 5090 with an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D? Well, see for yourselves. Behold the power of CPU PhysX. 13FPS at 4K/Max Settings. Thanks NVIDIA. Ironically, the RTX 4090 (which still has GPU PhysX support) was able to push over 100FPS at 4K/Max Settings. Let this sink in."

Is this more like a midcycle refresh with better engineering?
