5090 Founders showed up today!

[jovial trout]

game on Chaos!

do you plan to waterblock it?

[buoyant quail]

ye he does

[stone cobalt]

First world problems, I got lucky enough to get a 5090 FE but I can't use my Thermal Grizzly Wireview on it because of the angled power inlet and there's no water blocks announced and now my silly water cooled PC is just cooling the CPU...

[brittle fog]

I just spent an hour dismantling my gpu water loop so that i could put this darn thing in, lol.

i have a friend looking for a 5090 as well, so if i can manage to get another 5090, going to try for one that can be waterblocked, or get a pre-waterblocked card like the aorus xtreme

and then sell him this one

[brittle fog]

i dont have everything back together and it is dirty still, but... ****

[buoyant quail]

I dont mind tbh.. have you upgraded or planning to upgrade your cpu?

[brittle fog]

probably get 9950x3d once it comes out

[buoyant quail]

sweet.. and how much RAM you running btw?

[brittle fog]

32gb right now. may move to 64 once i move to the 9950x3d

[buoyant quail]

Nais.. nais.. What games you going to be trying out first with the 5090 on

Gotta test for that noise and possible coil whine

[jovial trout]

[hardy fern]

[brittle fog]

best guess is thursday, but dont know for sure. all best guess at this point

[hardy fern]

will we know the day before?

[brittle fog]

no

[hardy fern]

u need a credit / debit card right they still don't take cash? and so do i just come both days then?

[buoyant quail]

If we did, it’s oos before it’s in stock

[buoyant quail]

Wdym? BB is all online. MC you can go in person and pay cash if you have to since they don’t take online orders for this GPU

[hardy fern]

ohh the BB drop is fully online? not in person. so we just refresh both days in the morning with a CC ready basically?

[buoyant quail]

Yep, not in person until nvidia and aib have plenty stock to ship out

[hardy fern]

got it, tysm. and no BB membership needed right?

[buoyant quail]

Nope, doesn’t give any perks at all

[hardy fern]

got it, thanks again

[unreal mantle]
