Do NOT buy a 50X0 GPU if you intend to use Daz Studio.

Pretty radical topic, but still - information is trickling through in various threads indicating that the new 50-series of GPUs won't work with Daz Studio until DS 5 is released:
Richard Haseltine said:
"The 50x0 cards are not supported by the current version of iray. According to information I was given yesterday the 2024.0 version of iray (which may have had support) had bugs and will not be integrated, the new 2024.1 uses a different C++ version and so cannot be integrated into DS 4.x.x.x. 50x0 support will therefore have to wait for the next major version of Daz Studio, for which I do not have an ETA."
He also states that Daz Studio will work with any 50X0 GPU - but rendering won't work....?
This is so important that it deserves its own thread - I for one have been trying to get a 5090, but I have absolutely no use for one as long as it can't be used in Daz Studio.

There are already threads on the 50x0 cards covering this, including the ones to which I posted variations of the quoted text.
