That's correct, my 4090 is running on 85% power limit and I haven't seen any noticeable performance loss aside few points in various benchmarks. But in my case CPU is the limiting factor in most cases, not the GPU. Waiting for new x3D to finally unleash the beast fully.
That's something I well experienced already. And that's with CPU that uses very little power (it's under curve optimiser). I can imagine how it would be on full power - I already barely used any heating in winter in the same room. And Aircon in this country is a rarity still.
7900XTX don’t use 80% of the power though it uses the same if not more power. The 4090 may have a TDP of 450w but in gaming it’ll only use an average of 350w.
Read the post two or three posts below the post you just quoted.
ray tracing is an easy marketing gimmick without any impact as it leaves people outside as the money needed to play with decent fps not good fps is simply to expensive.
