The Ampere RTX 3090 Ti Owners Thread

@Kaapstad - you getting one of these then as you were waiting for the full fat chip? Or is this the Ti even full fat as I remember you knew yonks ago that the 3090 wasn't the full chip? How does the price feel?

At this stage I will only get one if I need it as the 4XXX are not far away.

ATM I am building a 12900KS based system at least when OcUK get some of the CPUs in stock. This should boost fps in my old single thread games which can be quite demanding when played on huge maps.

Having said that if I needed more graphics power a 3090 Ti would be in my shopping basket in the next 30 seconds.:)

So much for "this is a pointless card Nvidia aren't getting my money" eh Kaapstad ? lol

Nvidia have you squarely by the short and curlies ;)

I won't lie, My finger was hovering over the buy button on Nvidia's site but for once I practised some self control, The price is too much, Only 5 months to go and the 4000 series launches and we'll see a 4070 likely match this card in raw performance for 1/4 the price.

If this came out a year ago I would likely have gotten one but right now it's simply way too late in the product cycle, Plus I have a 3080 Ti to tide me over

If I had had a modern card laying around for my build I would not have bothered either.

Nice, enjoy!

I do wonder if you're the only person in the world to own a 3090ti and use it on a 60hz monitor. I know you're heavily into benching etc where the refresh rate doesn't matter, though I still think you may be the only one!

Are you going to watercool it? Let us know how you get on with it :)

I probably won't watercool it as the case only has room for a single 360mm rad which is already having to cope with a 12900KS.

I think another 480 Watts from the 3090ti would be a bit too much.:eek::)

Do you have an actual use for KS? I have my K at 125W PL2 and .07 undervolt, which still hits 25k in CBr23 while only reaching 60C on air with default fan profiles. It's not a bad option if you don't use the all the cores maxed out.

I got the KS to see if my old single thread games would run better because of the high IPC. I needed to rebuild the PC because the motherboard for the 5950x system in there died.

I will be doing a lot of gaming to test it out.:)

Just tried mine on CBr23 and scored 28816 using default settings, having said that the result needs to be taken with a large pinch of salt because Asus tweek the settings by default.

I also had a quick go on Heaven 4 with the 3090ti using standard power limit (no increase) but overclocked, running on Air, Win10

I am waiting to see what happens when I get W11 on the system.

nice :) What are your impressions on the card so far, how does the FE cooler cope? I heard the FE cooler on the 3090TI is slightly improved on the already excellent 3090 cooler (especially since no memory on backplate to cool on the ti)
Click to expand...

Cooler is pretty good in normal use. A bit noisy when turned up to 100% for benching but not something to worry about for gaming. Heaven 4 can get cards quite hot but as you can see from the pic above the card was running at 63C which is not bad.

Memory overclocking is quite a bit better than my FE 3090 and core overclocking is about the same +140 for benching on air.

What I am curious about is why there is no option to increase the power limit in EVGA Precision X1.
