Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • go all out, 9800x3d and dual 5090s. lol
  • there's no reason beyond case size considerations that a RTX 5090 Solid OC wouldn't work either.
  • I got a 5090 in December, I picked up the [Zotac GAMING RTX 5090 Solid](https://www.zotac.com/us/product/graphics_card/zotac-gaming-geforce-rtx-5090-solid)
  • Alternatively, a pair of 5090s provides more memory, more compute, and *even more* power draw.

Cons

  • I don’t think I’ve seen anyone mention a 5070ti burning its cable whereas there are a few cases of 4090/5080/5090s burning cables.
  • RTX 5090 SUPRIM Liquid X
  • Since it’s a 5090 (and hard to replace given how unavailable and expensive they are, especially the Suprim that isn’t even really available anymore), I’m pretty nervous about damaging the GPU, PCIe slot, or motherboard in the removal/uns...
  • The card is massive, and there’s not enough clearance under it; routing the wires without GPU removal would put too much upward pressure on the GPU and motherboard.
