Absolutely ruined the 3090. A decent card soured by dirty marketing. 8k is NOT here.

- 3090 graphic card nvidia
Hah.
Just about to watch it... +500mhz isn't to be sniffed at
So what? NV shill OC's cherry picked card...
What about something like a strix? Supposedly has a well binned chip plus more power supplied to the card..
He spins it as "You pay WAY more for a Chiron over a Veyron, right??" followed by a stupid face i think.
I was really disappointed by LTT's video. Personally I've followed them for years and years... maybe I'm biased but I've not really felt a lot of biased reviews from them, but the 3090 "review"?? It almost made me want to buy one... and that's saying a LOT
*I mean the review video, not the jizzmaster 8k gaming one. However, now I think about it, that video too. nVidia feeding him lines.
I feel like the difference is that a V8 isn't a V10 with 2 cylinders disabled.
*I don't really know what this means.

So irritating. And it's only exacerbated by his drooling over the latest and greatest component, particularly an Nvidia release.
Nvidia don't need to pay him, he's literally stroking the 3090 during the review video. The man's nursing a semi.
Hey
So, I am that "game dev student". Really. It's me.
I got two preorders through Scan, because I wanted to secure one and the other I will cancel.
In fact, I am close to my 40s, been a hospitality manager for almost 15 years and, due to COVID, I cannot find work in the UK for the life of me, especially since I am not from the UK, but I still am a UK citizen.
I am going into 3d Design / environmental artist path because I've been doing it as a hobby, I have studied more than a year heavily on this and I just want to get out of the stupid hours and life of hospitality and do what I love.
I you read the WHOLE thread, you will understand what was my logic. And since I can afford to buy a card that is clearly an affordable powerhouse that manages to be also the most performant card in gaming out there, I am more than happy to utilize it.
Now for the use: UE4 is production ready for Fully Dynamic Global Illumination, meaning Ray Tracing is utilized to the fullest. Blender is also utilized, with great amounts of VRAM used to have a smooth and fast workflow in the Viewport of both In Engine and Blender.
Lightmass baking (non dynamic lighting) also uses great ammounts of vram, along with fast CPU and RAM. The 3090 cuts the performance of lightbaking and texture sampling in more than 50% in comparison to a 2080ti, and more than 20% in comparison to a 3080. That means, I do not have to bake test my lights in a scene standing for about 20 minuutes, but less than maybe 10. Adding those tests up, it saves hours of working in engine. Thus the 3090 choice.
I feel I did not have to explain myself, however forums and the internet is a nasty place, especially when people do not know or understand reasons for people's choices.
So yes, there are 2 preorders, one will arrive first and the other I will either cancel, or sell to the price I bought it to anyone that is nice enough to ask or does not cancel people online.
My name is also Kostas. The nick in the forum should clarify the rest.
Enjoy your day
Fair play to you sir. You've more drive in you than most people I know, that alone will shine through to a potential employer. Good luck man, I hope nothing in this thread came across as mockery, and as someone said earlier there was no need to explain yourself.
LOL ignores Doom Eternal because it is a well optimised game and use badly optimised ones to make a comparison GJ Steve
And how many well optimised games are there? 2? 3?
Most gamers play a wealth of games, and are extremely annoyed at nvidia's marketing - because it implied 8K gaming "IS HERE". Well, it isn't for a vast, vast, vast majority of titles. How is that a bad review?
Exactly, it's akin to being sold a car that can go 400mph. But it can only go 400mph in certain environments. Like the moon.

You're absolutely right, Game optimisation sucks, but it should still be included as an example. But using the term "most gamers" kinda invalidates your argument as MOST GAMERS will not touch 8k for the foreseeable future
Touché, sir.
I did mean to infer that the benefits of native 8K gaming would transfer to 4K and, possibly somewhat less considering CPU bottlenecking, 1440p.
Have you seen BitWits latest video? He basically just dives into the subculture that has developed over time in the 3080 + 3090 queues (separate queues!) outside Micro Centre...it is bizarre what people go through. Really worth a watch for the hilarity.

Absolutely agree. To be honest I think a lot of 3090 buyers would agree. However the lure of the best to some people is irresistible.
Nope. Drug dealer.
