UNCOVERED: This gaming pc build smashes together the very latest components but if i did it again i d do it differently - Caught on Camera

A gaming PC with RGB lighting enabled on a desk.

It's funny really; Nvidia's getting a lot of stick right now (and rightly so) for its erroneous reporting and missing ROPs on some of the latest 50-series cards, but honestly, the biggest problem for me as a semi-pro system builder (that's what I'm calling my career, shut-up), is the fact that there are no cards out there.

Want an RTX 5090? Well, I hope you can pony up $5,000 because that's the price the scalpers currently have them set at. Only a small increase on the RRP of, let me check, oh yes, 150%. Great. Love that. Real sigma, giga-chad energy going on there, nice. Still, I'd be bereft of much joy if, given the opportunity, I didn't take one of them top-tier flagships out for a spin. In a rig that's arguably not overkill enough for this card.
