I would steer clear of this card. This is the same design as their 3090ti. Memory temps are worse than any 3090ti AIB(even air cooled), GPU temps are not convincing either. Waste of money over good AIB:

Gigabyte Aorus RTX 3090 Ti Xtreme Waterforce Review - KitGuru

If you’re in the market for an RTX 3090 Ti, I think it is safe to say you are doing quite well for y

Thanks that’s an interesting read and as the 4090 version is the same design as the 3090ti which is slated in this review it does not seem worth it. Thanks for the link which will save me some money not buying it!

Jensen during presentation literally said you can increase power limit to 600W for overclocking.
If that was a lie, then I will just return FE. But based on materials Nvidia provided, you will be able to increase PL on FE to 600W.

I never heard Jensen say that and I listened to the presentation. I have not seen 600w in any of the materials. Do you have a timestamp for that? (Or a link to Nvidia's material where it is stated)

One tech site says 600w another says BIOS is 450w limited.

That’s nice man, I don’t know if I can wait until November though.

To arknor’s point above that is one concern I have about them if I’m honest. I imagine reselling in a few years maybe hard due to that too.

Yeah I don’t think I can wait an extra month as I anticipate playing cyberpunk in VR in two weeks on one of these new cards! The reselling point is a good one as well. To be honest I’m a serial GPU upgrader so will probably be getting the 5090 in two years so being able to offload the GPU easily is a factor.

Cyberpunk in VR?!? Wait what?!

I’m selling my PC to a friend who helped me out a lot when I’m younger which will take the sting out of the new build/card but it’s crazy how much the cards are still worth from the last gen. Selling the old card separately and then putting the rest towards a new card works out cheaper than buying the original 3090.

Yeah check out the Luke Ross mod! I’m going to be using it on a vive pro 2 so should be able to get some decent resolution and will be able to push the 4090 to it’s limits! I have a week off work after the 4090 release so am looking to put in some serious VR time in :)

That Cyberpunk benchmark shows a 67% uplift over the 3090 Ti so yes 75% faster than the 3090 is in line with expectations on that basis.

Also impressive that power usage drops 25% with DLSS 3 enables. DLSS looks like hot a££ (I can't stand it, but just my opinion/eyes) when compared to running "clean", but good to see there's a lower power/high IQ alternative.

Forgive me for being cynical but I’ll believe it when I see it.

That was using DLSS3 and an unreleased game patch that changes RT settings I believe.

There is a video showing Spiderman having the same sort of uplift at native 4k ... 3090Ti doing 60-70fps while the 4090 is doing 100-130 fps , i do believe we will see very good gains with native resolution without touching DLSS :)

Hopefully we’ll find out in 1.5 weeks.

Thought the above was using DLSS but perhaps you’re right. The 4090 doesn’t have much going for it if it’s not a big performance jump TBF.

Had native performance on the left and dlss on the right in the video , others on here commented that 3090/3090ti gives 60-70fps at 4k Native RT so looks like a genuine uplift of over 50% which i will be happy with and a worthwhile upgrade .. also falls inline of the leaked timespy extreme score which was 20000 while a 3090Ti did 11300 ... for those of us who game at 4K looking like a very good upgrade if all holds up to be true :D

Thanks for the info about Cyberpunk VR you two. I'm looking to get a VR headset, I know this is for another section but unsure which one but I really want to try out Cyberpunk in VR, that looks ace.

I think I've got my heart set about having a GPU in the upright position in my Evo so I guess I need to start trying to find out dimensions, from what I've seen the 4090 is the same size in every aspect as the 3090ti (unless I'm being an idiot) and someone here has said they managed to do it in the Evo. So FE is sadly my real go-to, which I think is going to be a lot of peoples, I've got a feeling it's going to sellout pretty quick. If not I guess I could go for the verticle mount but need to decide which card to go for still.

with the numbers being spent on a GPU, if VR is your priority, get a high end headset.

The Index and Quest 2 are pretty C-tier in terms of visual and going to age badly in the next 1-2 years IMO.

I find it annoying how they keep calling it a 4070, when in reality the 4080 12gb has a die size that's normally found on a 60 series GPU, it's a 4060 variant
Click to expand...
Right.
The 4080 12GB has less than half the shaders of the 4090 and half the memory bandwidth, like the 3060Ti vs the 3090, calling it the 4070 is being kind to it, the 3070 has more than half the shaders of the 3090.
