I got almost a 700pt increase (see here: https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/3dmark-directx-raytracing-feature-test-port-royal-bench-thread.18838895/page-8#post-36224539) - but my score was nowhere near LTMatt's to begin with. CPU seems to make quite a difference in the results looking...
I'm running a 5900x and an XFX Merc 7900xtx with a 750w EVGA G3 Gold PSU - a slightly older PSU now based on the Leadex II platform so pretty decent when it was new 5-6 years ago.
Have my GPU power limit at +5% day to day and regularly see HWInfo/WattMan reporting the card pulling ~430 watts...
A few more red results for the roster.

XFX Merc 7900XTX Temperatures...
5 minutes of Furmark gets to 65 degrees GPU, 79 degree hotspot.
Memory junction a bit higher - as you'd expect - at 86 degrees.
That's all worse case. Gaming is a few degrees less. Idle/browsing GPU is at 40 and hotspot at 45.
A long time since I've posted on OcUK. I've been keeping an eye on this thread and was able to order an XFX Merc 310 XTX last week which arrived today. Adding my hat to the ring for the owners list!
Pretty happy so far - looks suit me perfectly. Don't care for anything RGB or overly flashy -...
Picked up an M1 powered base-spec MacBook air and couldn't be happier with it. Battery life is great, screen is perfect, as a day to day laptop it's ideal.
This is the problem. Stop focussing so much on the monthly figure. What is the total cost over the term now compared to the original monthly figure you were quoted? I very much doubt the sales manager has discounted anything at all - he's not doing you a favour!
Or just wait 3 months and put the money aside each month and pay for it then, saving yourself some money in the process and achieving the same outcome? £30 isn't "nominal" if you don't have the money on hand to buy something without leaving you uncomfortably exposed with no safety net.
The majority of pensions are defined contribution (you put in a defined amount each month) but the value of what you get at the end varies according to how the underlying assets perform, rather than defined benefit where there is a guaranteed amount you are paid upon retirement.
