NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, the flagship reinvented

Really? Is there a need?

This puts the 3080 another tier down the hierarchy to mid range casual gamer status.

The 3080 has always been mid-range.

What, no that's a high end card.

I only got a 3080 Ti because I could actually find an FE and it was cheaper than most 3080s were retailing for.

Haha not really. Although it is surprising how many cards they are creating across the range, especially above the 3080FE, the gains are minimal to the massive cost increases.

They should really be just focusing on bringing 3080s out to the masses. It really is a top tier card...these are just stupid epeen cards.

Yeah, my 3070 can barely run minesweeper.... ray-tracing off, obviously.

GA102 = high end
GA104 = midrange
GA106 = low end

I think you mean "The Heater, Reinvented!"

I don't know why unlocking 2 extra SM's and adding 21gbps memory costs an extra 100w though - this GPU must be overclocked to the max straight out of the box

The difference between the 3090 and this 3090TI makes the jump from 3080TI to 3090 look totally worth it if you need the Vram.

Pointless upgrade is pointless

 

[stuartam]

It’s not April the 1st is it?

 

[BigBANGtheory]

Complete marketing nonsense - total rip off for gamers as is anything above a 3080. Mega bucks for naff all extra performance bar some edge cases...

 

[Dave2150]

Still won't do 4k properly at good fps without DLSS

Nonsense.

 

[Joxeon]

Anyone buying this in January onwards will have a very overpriced midrange card 8 months later when the 4000 series arrives.

The 3080 was the flagship...

Yet it chews up and spits out everything I throw at it with ease. Top tier is just becoming utterly pointless these days.

It's crazy to see the massive price jump from a 3080 Ti to a 3090. For at most 5 - 10 extra fps. Anything from £1499/1699 to £2400.

Nah cards ranking is based on how many cards they are from the top of the stack.

Currently its 3rd, with a 3090Ti being sold the 3080 will be 4th best which means it's peasant grade

 

[Angilion]

Oh wow, a card a tiny bit more powerful than an existing card, both of which are insanely expensive if you can find one to buy at all. Can't wait!

Coming soon, the 3090 Dilithium Crystal! 1% faster than a 3090 Ti in some benchmarks! Only £5000!

Would do Nvidia even bother with this card, they can’t make enough 3090 to satisfy demand let alone another sku.

 

[Sh4rkie]

It's Nvidia, there was always going to be something, either this or Super cards. Maybe both!

Because with driver improvements the 6900xt is now beating out the 3090 in most situations (except rt).

True but with the 3090ti costing potentially double the rrp of a 6900xt it’s a pointless sku.
