No idea but it makes a difference for me in this game, Just went and tried quiet mode and it locks my fps at 25-30 max
Make sure you have Bio switch on the side of card to gaming, people say it just controls fans I don't believe that is the case because since I changed that I am getting more fps on some games

To anyone who got the 4090 fe, could you measure the box it came in. I have this crazy idea to build a whole PC inside the box, or if it is not sturdy enough, in a case of my own making that is the same size.

I had to switch mine to gaming instantly as silent would make my PC freak out and go all fans 100%

Hi, been lurking here for awhile and really pleased to see most of you are happy with your new 4090’s. I am really in a muddle as to whether it’s worth the upgrade from my current 3090, I am running an i9 X intel cpu and so am curious to know if I will see some of the big gains the 4090 seems to be capable of over the previous generation. I want one (especially the FE if it ever comes back in stock) but I am not sure I need one! I know, nice problem to have! Anyone coming from a 3090 seen huge improvement?

lots of 3080s and 3090/ti out there cheap. They would be great upgrades.

Save your money and wait for the 5 series.
I came from a 3080ti. Its barbaric how fast it is. Huge improvement
It’s a big improvement over the 3090 but the 3090 was decent anyway. The big gains are if you are a VR gamer as the extra horsepower really helps with that.

It’s bottle necked with 9900K 10900k and X series was worse than those for gaming due to mesh so I would be careful.
I am getting anywhere from a 60%-100% uplift in 4k native performance in the games i play compared to my 3090 Strix . On Elden Ring i now play at 8K with DLDSR and will hold a solid 60FPS while looking absolutely stunning , i don't even used DLSS anymore where as on the 3090 i needed it for 4k 120fps most of the time... for 4K it really is a night and day difference BUT 1440p the gains are nowhere near as big as you are CPU limited almost all the time or at least will be with your processor

Remember it's a *lot* of money, if you can justify the switch then do it otherwise your 3090 will be fine til the next gen

Right, stupid question time! Why is it that 1440p is cpu bound but 4K isn’t?I am getting anywhere from a 60%-100% uplift in 4k native performance in the games i play compared to my 3090 Strix . On Elden Ring i now play at 8K with DLDSR and will hold a solid 60FPS while looking absolutely stunning , i don't even used DLSS anymore where as on the 3090 i needed it for 4k 120fps most of the time... for 4K it really is a night and day difference BUT 1440p the gains are nowhere near as big as you are CPU limited almost all the time or at least will be with your processor
