NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, the flagship reinvented

Absolutely brutal, and that's vanilla RT, but we can easily expand refl. res & roughness threshold...

But ypu are forgetting that Nvidia has now droped the Titan line for gamers. You have to compare Titan GPUs with the 3090ti. The 3090 replaced the 80ti cards

How dare GPU manufacturers think they can milk an extra £1200 (over the 3080 FE) for 10% extra performance!

Which is exactly the silly comparison Nvidia wanted to force on reviewers of the 3090Ti. Steve sums it up beautifully here (along with the "8k gaming" nonsense) from the "Nvidia Reviewers Guide"::

I watched Jayz2cents review of the 3090Ti.
My take-away.

It's too expensive. The performance and price show that the law of diminishing returns has well and truly kicked in.

It's power hungry like a son of a...

It requires really high end CPU to avoid or at least minimize throttling issues.


But none of the above is really relevant because

Yep it's a Halo product that most people can't afford nor take advantage of.

Of more interest to me from the Jayz2cent review is to see that the 3080Ti and 'normal' 3090 have near identical performance, and in the real world neither of those is all that far ahead of the 3080.

What's really high end? 5950x 12900K? or HEDT? I thought he said even the 5900 series was still throttling it...

Still on sale freely on the English Nvidia website, as of the time of this post. Who's taking bets on when they drop the price?

I think NVIDIA must have a LOT of stock, only reason I say this is because our Asus cards keep selling out which are priced higher than FE cards, so either customers don't want an FE version for some reason or they have a considerable amount of stock and as such it is sell well but the supply is good. I suspect once the initial stock has sold out the drops afterwards will be smaller. I doubt NVIDIA will move the price on a flagship part.

Imagine a £450 gpu trashing a £1000+ gpu :p Must need more vram :cry:

But in all seriousness,

Can't wait to see how 40xx series RT perf. is, expecting much the same leap as from turing to ampere i.e. a 4070 to match or ever so slightly beat the 3090. Hopefully more of a leap though given all the experience and time they have had working with RT now.

Whilst I am a *little* tempted by one of these I personally wouldn't want one with an existing 3090 cooler just re-purposed and used on the Ti. Been eyeing the KFA2 model just because it's got a revised cooler and looks THIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCC!

Still way overkill for me and the 6900XT Toxic won't be far behind at 2.7Ghz so I can't really justify it :)

CAn get a 5yr warranty Zotac AMP EXTREME HOLO for same price as an FE at a competitor. Even an ASUS! Dunno what the warranty is on Nvidia direct cards. Different fan used on the Ti looking at it.

Don't post up your link to a website as it wont be trusted by some, as that what it comes down to now. Trusted websites (or cherry picking) are subjective.
 
Would be better to save the pennies for Navi 31. :p

Unless you really needed that teeny bit of performance over the 3090 right now etc.

The 3090Ti just like the 3090, 3080Ti and 3080 (12GB variant) are there simply to rake over consumers, and give Nvidia some brand advantage. That's why we got 10GB on the 3080 and the supply dried up.

Commercially it makes sense at the cost of being as anti-consumer as they can get away with. They will try their hardest to keep the prices as high as possible to make the 4000 series look like they offer value this is what Nvidia does
