Yeah, well the Gold one wasn't available since month and the platinum was, so I pressed the "yolo" button and took it.

Will let you know when I got it for the fan curves you promised :)

I have a platinium myself, but gold is completely enough.
Wouldnt buy platin again because of the high price.

In UK price difference between Gold and Platinum is minimal about 10-20%.
The main difference in price comes with Wattage when you go over 850W prices start increasing considerably, but not many people buy PSU's over 1000W. Although this might start now with 1000W PSU needed for a 5090, so the 6000 series will probably need much bigger PSU's and the majority of PSU's over 1000W are Platinum or Titanium.

If I was building a new machine over 2K I wouldn't skimp £20 on a PSU - @Cesc Fabregas made the right choice with Platinum.
The tiering is slightly more important than the rating, but most Platinum and all Titanium are Top Tier.
 
Looks very likely I will be skipping the 5000 series cards.
Prices are now leaking for the manufactured boards with the cheapest being £2400 for a Zotac, so they are coming in £400 more than the FE cards.
At those prices will 100% keep my 4090.

In terms of rasterization and without the fake frames, the 5090 should only be about 25%-30% faster then the 4090. Not worth upgrading 👍🏻
