Nvidia's RTX 5090 GPU is expected to be one of the most elusive GPUs to date at launch and based on the information available to us, it would be challenging for most users to score one even with the best of efforts this quarter.

Texas Instruments (TI) ( TXN 1.44%) stock lost about 7.5% of its value in the trading session following its latest earnings report. While revenue exceeded expectations, a muted outlook for the upcoming quarter prompted investors to sell.

It’s disappointing to see Nvidia has stuck with 16GB of VRAM on the RTX 5080. AMD’s RX 7900 XTX offers 24GB, and while the RTX 5080 delivers better performance for now, it may well hit video memory limits in 4K gaming in the future.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 is an odd graphics card. It’s only a bit faster than its predecessor, the RTX 4080 Super, but it’s also significantly cheaper (for now), launching at $999 for the Founders Edition.

The more expensive of the two, the RTX 5070 Ti at $749, is set to launch on February 20, according to VideoCardz. The outlet claims reviews will go live on February 19 for models set at list price, while cards priced above list will see reviews on Februrary 20. Nvidia has yet to confirm these dates publically, so treat this as a rumor for now.

But then, neither is it a blood-boiler like the RTX 4080, nor a largely aspirational show-off piece like the RTX 5090. By maintaining the 4080 Super’s course correction on price while tooling up on compelling DLSS 4 improvements,

The RTX 5080 Founders Edition uses the same lovely shroud as the top RTX Blackwell card, and brings the same DLSS/MFG feature set to the table. But that's all that is really setting the second-tier card apart from the RTX 4080 Super as the gen-on-gen performance difference is marginal at best.

EE has announced it will be stocking NVIDIA’s all-new GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards for UK consumers, which include the GeForce RTX 5090, 5080, 5070 Ti, and 5070. The move comes as EE looks to expand its PC gaming offering in 2025, as part of its ongoing ambition to become the UK’s number one destination for gaming.

The best argument for grabbing a 5080 right now, if you can find one at $999 in the first place, is that the only cards that come close to its performance are either way more expensive than they're supposed to be (the 4080 Super) or not cheap enough to justify the Nvidia-specific features you give up (AMD's Radeon 7900 XTX).

The growing use of AI has opened new avenues for healthcare marketers, revolutionising how they approach new initiatives. With the Pharma 4.0 term representing the pharmaceutical industry's adaptation of Industry 4.0, which refers to the fourth industrial revolution driven by digital technologies —AI takes centre stage in this transformation.

At the World Economic Forum in Davos, tech executives stressed the importance of the U.S. and its allies advancing data centers and finding the right regulatory balance to stay competitive with China in AI development. Ruth Porat from Alphabet acknowledged the US’s lead in AI models but warned that it was not guaranteed to last, Bloomberg reported.
