how's your 5090 booking?

Absolutely no luck. sad.gif

Dotatech said can only sell once they have stock allocation from local distributor hence the waiting list. Paid deposit only. moneyflies.gif

LOL betcha distros are holding stocks waiting for post tariff price hikes which they will simply blame on Trump and you will believe it, but they ady bought these stocks at pre tariff lower prices. Haha.

The USA tariff shouldn't have anything to do with Malaysia since nothing is assembled over there.

On the other hand, the GPU supply should be better since the poor USA cannot afford expensive GPU due to the tariff in the first place. whistling.gif

Remember to register your product for +2 years warranty:

Thermal imaging data (for a SOLID, but it's practically the same as an AMP anyway).:

Thanks for the information.

Now then....if only Dotatech replies me back on my questions...... sad.gif

Another thing you might want to be aware of -- Zotac 50 series power connectors are gold plated, which carries the risk of galvanic corrosion when mated to tin-plated 12V-2x6 connectors according to the references here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1j...omment/mg0e1bq/
https://www.molex.com/en-us/blog/gold-or-tin-vs-gold-and-tin

So, if this is something you want to take seriously, you should get a PSU with gold-plated 12V-2x6 connectors like Lian Li Edge Gold/Lian Li Edge.
*
Uh oh....now that might be a problem......... sweat.gif

Insufficient fund for new PSU.
Currently using Hydro G PRO ATX3.0(PCIe5.0) 1000W PSU.

Ah, bollock......Dotatech just informed me that Zotac RTX 5090 model already been confirmed/booked by another customer....then what is the purpose of telling me that there is unit available?

So much for a waiting list.

Edit:
Update - waiting for further status
Solved, stock available. rclxm9.gif

So when your getting it? Ask them to write your name on the box with marker, and take photo send to you. Then you know you have it.Ā  tongue.gif

Dotatech said they can get new stock on next Monday.

QUOTE(ipohps3 @ Apr 25 2025, 09:05 PM)
how much?

Total RM13101 = RM12799 + RM302 (delivery cost + delivery insurance)

Not going to take risk without any delivery insurance. Stuff aint cheap. sad.gif

Yeah retail prices still too scalpy, but it is what it is.
*
I checked all official nvidia distributers/dealers here
https://www.zotac.com/my/where_to_buy?location=685

Even https://www.suncycle.com.my/brand/zotac-gaming/26 sells Zotac RTX5090 AMP Infinity at RM12599, so there that, it is what it is........ sad.gif

In the past, I waited RTX 4090 to fall to MSRP price.....and it never did, then Nvidia stopped RTX 4090 production and I never found RTX 4090 again after RTX 5090 launched.



And the second hand Gigabyte RTX 3090 dead within a year plus after I got it......right after the warranty period over......doesn't seem like Mr Arnand armand666 can fix it.... https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4722878

Oh wait, why is armand666 being suspended? shocking.gif Any moderator can tell? My RTX 3090 still at his repair shop. ohmy.gif

edited: Mr Arnand will sent the card back to me. Sad to say the RTX 3090 cannot be repaired.

The Zotac response to my questions :

QUOTE
By referring to the reddit discussion here https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1j...omment/mg0e1bq/

What is Zotac official standing on possible galvanic corrosion due to dissimilar metal tin/gold corrosion (fretting and galvanic)?



sweat.gif
What kind of nonsense is that?

We are so screwed.......

FYI, the connector that comes with the card is tin-plated.
*
GPU side 12V-2x6 gold-plated.

Problem, majority of PSU 12V-2x6 or 12VHPWR side is tin-plated.

unsure.gif

If the bundled 4 pcie to 12VHPWR connector also tin-plated, confirm headache.

Received Zotac RTX 5090 AMP Infinity today.
Just installed it, up and running.
Done with extended warranty registration.

Though.......why is the damn 12VHPWR so warm during GPU-Z stress test?
I am using FSP Hydro G PRO ATX3.0(PCIe5.0) 1000W native 12VHPWR cable.

I have an idea. Add 8cm or 12cm fan blowing the 12VHPWR.

Got 140mm side fan blowing right through.

Hopefully I don't encounter connector melting issue....... sweat.gif
I just spent my entire bonus from last year + 2 months salary on this card alone. moneyflies.gif moneyflies.gif

5 years warranty better be worth it.

Sigh, time to set the power limit to 66%.

66% of 600w = 396w or roughly 400w.
Getting uncomfortable with the warm temp.

Not many sellers for B580. Dotetech is scalping many things. Not just B580. MSRP for B580 is USD 250. Should be RM1300 max for base model.
*
Indeed, even though I bought nvidia gpu from Dotatech, I also believe Dotatech is scalping stuff. sad.gif

Disappointed since I often bought stuff from them.

Update:
On the other hand.

https://www.digitimes.com.tw/tech/dt/n/shwn...07LPQ3SR6FJ290O
Price RTX 50 series graphics cards will be increased by 5~10%.

If fake frame keeps doubling every generation by the time DLSS7 comes it will be 32 fakes for every 1 real frame or in other words you will be 'watching' your gaming instead of actually playing since AI bot will play for you (30 FFPS- Fake Frames Per Second).

Logically, if they follow video compression usage of reference frames and vector prediction method, the maximum possible frames would be 16 frames. hmm.gif
