This is why I always avoid being an early tester on any new PC components releases or even technologies.
I would be extremely unhappy if I paid for a 5090 and it got bricked; thus requiring going through the RMA process.
Don't forget likely waiting for weeks if not months for replacement!
This was a rushed paper launch for stock holders. And now AMD is going to do the AMD thing, trip and fail to capitalise on this non mew gen from NVIDIA.
It's a pcie 5.0 problem, not a rtx 50xx problem.
