I wonder how long I’ll have to wait before I can get my hands on one… I’ve been wanting to upgrade my 1080 for a while now but first I couldn’t get a 4090 or 4080, then I waited for this gen, and now this gen is a mirage for the time being. I really wish I could just go jump on an AMD card but I need the raytracing/CUDA for rendering/photogrammetry/stuff like that.

Given that Trump has now reiterated multiple times, at least once after he personally met with Nvidia CEO Huang, that he will indeed be going forward with tariffs on Taiwan…

If you’re in the US, I wouldn’t expect to be able to get any 5000 series Nvidia GPU any time soon, at least not for under $3000+.
