How would a power connection for the gpu like ASUS is using on their BTF motherboard hold up in lieu of these cables?

It's OVER...! I found a solution to the cable conundrum of 2025:

I got curious. Back in 2010, I grabbed a 5850 - $300, or about $435 today. It wasn't the top of the line, but still high end. A quick look at 7800 XTs on the egg, they're about $525-550. So even inflation adjusted, there's a ~18-20% bump?
It'll be interesting to see if the 5070s stick close to the $549 MSRP. I grabbed a 670 in 2012 for $350, or about $485 today. So still an uptick, but not as much.

Wasn't that a moddiy cable that fried in the der8baur vid? Yep, the user that had the first one fry upgraded from a 4090 FE to 5090 FE. I'd need to see if the support page was updated more recently than launch or if they have attempted to outreach or let their customers know ahead of time

A leak says low demand for GB200 is allowing them to repurpose them as consumer 5090's (At a loss). So the supply will increase in the coming months. I added a link for fire extinguishers. 
At least I'll be able to cook my overpriced eggs with one of these.

Finally, Some Good News: GeForce RTX 5090 Supply to Increase in Coming Months
It would be safe to state that the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 launch was anything but ideal. Gamers had to deal with whacky NVIDIA marketing material with absurd performance claims, followed by disappointing generational improvement for the RTX 5080, only to be left dealing with...

There is no low demand for GB200 in the data center lol
The 5090 is probably a variant of what the data center version was to become. Early reports from leaks and Nvidia have said that initial samples of the GB200 for data center was not to the quality Nvidia expected. They had to switch to a tile format for the GB200 data center GPUs (similar to AMD and Intel for the past few generations of their products). So the 5090s are the discards.

True. But there is, supposedly, LESS demand (overheating, quick connect leaks, and insufficient copper cable yields from sole source provider - moved to 224G from 112G). MS reduced their number (by several thousand units, I heard ~$24B's worth) months ago. Foxconn also cut its orders from 20K to 12K with some moving to GB300.
So, because there is extra capacity on the GB200 lines, they are, again...supposedly, going to produce more GB202.

Well, the thread name is 'So, Who's getting a 5XXX Series Card?' I don't know who's gonna get one, but I know who's gonna have to give their review sample back... Jay isn't happy with his $749 5070 Ti review sample being listed at $899 on MicroCenter. I don't blame him either. Says he's gonna be violating his NDA in this video.

Are people forgetting what the "S" in MSRP stands for? What I'm getting from all this is that 5070 Ti is also likely to be in severe constraint so sellers are pumping up prices ready for it. As supply catches up, it will balance out. With an IANAL, manufacturers have limited influence over what resellers actually sell at. Not no influence, but also they can't dictate exactly what they do.
Edit: and reports are coming in saying these are also likely limited supply. Not really surprising since it is same silicon as 5080, unless they have really abysmal yield.

I don't think the price is going to "balance out" to not being double or triple the price they said.

Are GPUs going to 2x their initial price? I'm excluding scalpers, and high end models, since they naturally cost more even without a shortage. Basically once supply catches up, I'd expect pricing to drop back to where they should be. And I mean where they realistically should be, not where some armchair expert thinks it should be. If the early reports were accurate, it could take months on the high end. 5070 (and lower) are generally more volume parts and it remains to be seen how allocation goes there in about 2 weeks time.
