Starting soon. Anyone else watching? All I want to know is when/where I can get a 50XX series GPU. I'll update first post with relevant info if you don't want to watch.  CES 2025 Keynote with NVIDIA Founder and CEO, Jensen Huang |

Probably more like 30%. |

My 3090Ti is rated at 319.98 TOPS The 5090 has almost 10 times the performance in that one test. |

Super scary to hear him talk about AI agents and these ready to deploy models from an American job loss perspective, and talk about "offshoring" job losses or H1-B's. India should be a little worried. I have a suspicion that NVDA is going to have a good day in the market tomorrow and this bull is going to be running, and running for a while. |

I leave influencers out of that statement because they usually shill hard enough to get cards for free. The 90 series cards are basically what the Titan cards were a couple of generations ago. 80 series are the high end for normal people. Mainstream cards are the 60/70 series. The price increases have sucked since the 10xx and 20xx cards but almost everything has increased in price like crazy in the past 5 years. I paid around $500 for an EVGA 3070 and a ~$500 card today will be quite an improvement. |

Their consumer cards are a small part of their total business. The cards they are selling for data centers are totally different products. |

| Yeah right, the 5090 is twice the power! Sure sure. So I should get 80-100 FPS on MSFS 2024 in VR with everything maxed out? Bet is on. If it bumps my stock up, I will be okay with these new GPU’s but if it is just BS marketing as usual? I guess it won’t change my day or my week LOL. |

A very small part of their business, less than 8% based on the stat i saw on the last investor update. Nvidia's business and upside is kind of insane. |

Sneaky. He didn't say it here, but their website just reported 5090 and 5080 available starting 1/30 and the rest after that. "For desktop users, the GeForce RTX 5090 GPU with 3,352 AI TOPS and the GeForce RTX 5080 GPU with 1,801 AI TOPS will be available on Jan. 30 at $1,999 and $999, respectively.

I'll go with whatever is cheaper for the top card with a custom PCB since most are more similar than different but I'll wait until later in the year to buy since everything currently runs on 2k at 150+fps on 360hz+ screens. Asus or PNY most likely. Nvidia has a big car chip business:  |

A socialist may indeed be academically superior.
And yet, they are most certainly emotionally retarded.
Public education is the opiate of the masses.

There are multiple legacy semiconductor manufacturers that do 2-4x that much with much cheaper chips. |

Lol, they say that every time. Probably more like 30%. Yep, they are using the 2x number because they are limiting it only to RT games and using DLSS4 gets you 1 real frame and 3 fake ones vs older DLSS netting only 1 real frame and 1 fake one.
