From reviews not too much - saw a review of one of the inno3D cards, also locked at 450. Difference in max OC on core was 2896mhz vs 2971mhz for FE (which is 600w max) and perhaps ~1% difference in FPS at 4k, but memory much cooler by ~16c on the inno3d and overclocked a bit better vs the FE.
Inno3D RTX 4090 X3 OC Review - KitGuru
As this review goes live, RTX 4090 has launched at retail. Yesterday we presented our in-depth revie
www.kitguru.net
From Der8auer's fe review performance has basically plateaued at stock, so he recommended undervolting at around 95% performance at around 70% power usage

I went for the FE but it sold in like 30sec ! so option 2 was to come here and it looks like I may just have got one but I will find out tomorrow, if not ill get a refund and wait.... Do I need a 4090 at this moment in time ? No . But do I want one ? Sure because I use my pc 7 hours a day everyday so its going to benefit me in the long run.... and it will be nice to go back to the likes of RDR2 and play it at ultra 4k with over 60FPS..

I tested several Inno 3D cards all could do 3050+ mhz on 450w boards 24-7 stable so its silicon lottery as always.... More power doesnt always mean higher clock same as CPUs and memory.....
If you feed the card a nuclear power station worth of electricity does it performance faster - no it doesn’t.
The card will suck the amount of juice it needs to not based on the amount of PCIE connectors it has. It is based on the GPU demand.

mate i have a 1440p widscreen 34 inch and a 4k 32inch, both gsync both connected to a double arm, i use different monitors with different game, generally the 1440p,
once i install the 4090 i will use the 4k more, as from what i see, the 4090 excels at 4k resolution,

Do you know when the alphacool 4090 water blocks compatible with the inno3d are likely to be in stock at ocuk? Showing as 'pre-order' - from alphacool's site they say around 5-6 days.
So does the 3090Ti.
You’re being blindsided by the reviewers who are trying to sell you a card.
did you find it was a case of being voltage limited most of the time when trying to overclock ? just watching your video now and did make me laugh when you were using the gpu as weights

Over reaction much, a country with over 65 million people some of which purchase a very limited supply of the fastest gpu on day one, hardly news is it. Give it a few months and demand will be in the toilet at these prices.

No not voltage limited... maybe on water or LN2... Not on Air..did you find it was a case of being voltage limited most of the time when trying to overclock ? just watching your video now and did make me laugh when you were using the gpu as weights
Do you know if Zotac Trinity OC allows PL adjustment?

Didnt try that card.... so honestly not sure....
I saw that review and even with the power limit restriction (not concerned with OC) the cooling was better than the FE and slightly quieter. Glad I went with it, even with the fact I am in a queue!

One of the youtubers that made a few videos (during Ampere) where he got in line outside of brick-and-mortar stores the day before drops were rumored to be happening and tried to buy a card, released a new video today where he showed up at the store at opening time and got a 4090.
There was a line of about 25 people, and he did have to wait in that line, but he got his 4090 today. During the mining craze, the lines were wrapped around the buildings and out into the parking lots.
Things are different this time.

Hoping Der8auer works out how to get more volts.
im refering to 3090ti vs 4090 @4k
the 4090 eats the 3090ti for lunch at 4k, the margin is to great for me to disregard the 4090 and stick with the 3090ti
This is all relative,
You're totally correct but the same thing applies to the 4080 too. All PC equipment depreciates. We aren't buying Rolexes here. We're buying glorified toys.
Just buy what you can afford to use and depreciate as a disposable purchase. Your limit might be £1000, other people's limits are £500 and for others its £2000.

Full path traced RT in Quake II RTX is 66FPS at 3440x1440, it doesn't get any more intense than full path tracing and that's not got any DLSS either, so I fully expect closer to 100fps or more with DLSS! Plus those next gen games will be using new tech like RTXIO/DirectStorage and utilising resize BAR to help things along moreso.It might be overkill now, but soon there will be new games that will add even more RT or other stuff, which will murder FPS even on 4090.
Well, at least one would hope that these technologies mature by that point anyway. 40 series will fly even higher, 30 series should still continue to get nice uplifts.

Nope I didnt manage to get one. No way am I paying inflated prices esp for AIB cards. Very quickly prices rose on several websites as stock disappeared. Even MSI was scalping again selling direct from them at £2250 for a Suprim X.
