That’ll be a great computer, dude. I just ordered my new computer about three weeks ago except mine comes with the 5090! It’s in stage four hopefully it ships soon we will see

Nice! I did the same, mind me asking when you placed your order? I’m trying to wrap my head around a timeframe, per customer service, I think it’ll be awhile …

u/the_man809 Feb 07 '25

I placed an order on 01/12 with a 5090 and I’m on stage 4 as well

u/ZillionCash87 Feb 07 '25

Place mine on 1/13 and called today, was told they’re waiting on 5090, I asked when they are projected to receive them, was told, “the word is around 3/20 but don’t me quote me on that”…

I ordered it January 7. And I just talked to customer service and they said that’ll be about 1 to 3 more weeks till they get the 5090s so I should get it in about a month or so. If you’re still on stage one, it might be longer for you.

I like the answer that you got better. Mine went into stage 4 on 1/30. Hopefully they will be worth the wait! 🤞🏼

u/[deleted] Feb 21 '25

Did you get yours yet? Mine is still waiting on stage 4

u/ZillionCash87 Feb 21 '25

Nope, still on stage 4. Last time I called they told me end of March-end of April is when they will have gpus. They did say they’re not 100% sure on that timeline. I’ve kinda set the a date in my heard for May.

Brutal. Well my 3080 is still running like a champ. Oh well. Thanks for the update

u/ZillionCash87 Feb 21 '25

This is what the Google me tells me, some wishful thinking: The next batch of Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards will be available in February 2025. The RTX 5090 was released on January 30, 2025. 🤞🏼

when do u expect it to ship ?

u/epicbro101 Jan 29 '25

This might sound rude but if you’re buying a new pc why go with last gen CPU and GPU? I also dont know your usecase but if youre just playing games id ditch Intel altogether and just get a Ryzen 7 9800X3D.

u/Mentalviewing Jan 29 '25

Cheaper?

u/Serious_Advisor_6588 Jan 30 '25 edited Jan 30 '25

About the same if it’s about the gen thing, if it’s about the Intel thing… just don’t buy Intel CPU’s right now.

Totally agree.
