Probably a 3060 then.

NVIDIA 4000 Series

No wouldn't be avoiding it just know you will be CPU limited at lower resolution although that will still be plenty of frames in most games
a 5800X3D should provide a nice drop in uplift if needed .

This is a very impressive gen to gen bump. Even as a 3080Ti owner, it's making me think, and I said I would skip the 4000 series.
According to derBauer, he also cited a 10% performance drop with a 33% power saving (300w) over target when testing which is interesting.

By the looks of it the £950 one (4080 12GB) might actually perform worse than the 2-year-old 3080 which was priced £650 at launch.
Clock it to as close to 5GHz as you can, it will help, 8 Pack will reveal with his review tomorrow as I believe he shows CPU testing and the impact on performance with 4090, more reviews will no doubt go live overnight as well and hopefully some other reviews would have picked up on this and overclocked their CPU's to get best from the card.

Still on course for tomorrow.Can we get a poll for to find out how many have folded and changed their minds on getting one

I think unless AMD comes out with something much better price/performance under £1000 then we are in a spot of bother WRT to this hobby.

yeah it's already clocked to 5ghz

Yes at anything but 4k maxed out.... But the 4090 will still perform on that platform just not to it's full current potential....
Feed that 10900k some volts and get it up to 5.3/5.4Ghz , if it goes pop then a 13900K is a perfect replacement
Loooking forward to the 8pack review tomorrow mid and mid-upper tier is a waiting game atm for AMD and possible 4070 series news (although dunno where that would fit in current lineup)

You would be shocked how many people don't know you can run RTX raytracing titles on a radeon card though. Was really taken back by a poll showing how people thought it was vendor locked. You can get well over 60fps on most RTX titles with RT on a radeon.

Main issue with 10900k is ipc and frequency sadly these days.
Nice im also on a CX so 4K 120hz , as long as you stay with in 120HZ then your CPU isn't going to be an issue at all ... 1440p and uncap the frame rate and will have some issue but 4k 120 nope will be perfect and the 4090 should be flat out 120 in all games if not native then with dlss 3

Interesting power spikes - and oh gosh, 700watts will be easily breached (for gpu alone) by the partner cards. Bloody fast, but holy *** the price. Also, did anyone notice, that in certain titles, the lead over the next card wasnt really that much? 30 fps in tomb raider at 4k?

That's leather man for you but what he has done is convince everyone that a good uplift over a poor value product now means a £1700 product is good value.
