Neither. I have a 13 Pro Max and the 4090 is a load of power hungry overpriced drivel. If I was forced to choose i'd upgrade my phone.
 
You are forgetting to factor in a new PSU as well because you more than likely will need that 1000-1200watt upgrade assuming running it out of the box, so another £250 odd to splash on.

I would have added power usage by the 4090 too but in reality you can lock the power to 65% and still beat a 3090 Ti whilst consuming half the watts almost so there is that I suppose with all those cores running nice and cool and silent... No 30 series can manage that sort of thing.

I'd have the iPhone, then sell it and get myself a Samsung for the better camera :cry:

I would go with the 4090!

I plan on upgrading to a 4080 this year and have skipped the iPhone 14 Pro Max because I already have the 13 Pro Max. Getting a next gen GPU is a higher priority than a very incremental upgrade of my iPhone.
 
I voted phone as i don't have use for the other, however my own choice earlier this year was a new old phone that was over 1k when new ,ceramic, 120hz qhd + 12gig ram optical zoom ect ect ect the only thing it lacks is wireless charging but tbh it only needs 2o mins on superfast on a morning
it was £300 at the time
 
For me both a new phone and a new gpu would be a waste.

I'd need a whole new PC to make a gpu upgrade worth it.


But surely this is simply a choice of bang for buck?
If your phone is 1 generation older and your gpu is 5 years old gpu. Or reverse.

Both offer incremental upgrades.


I'd chose holiday!

GPU any day of the week.

A phones a phone whether it is a £200 or £1000 they all do the same thing.

Maybe ten years ago phone upgrades were worth it but it is all saturated now.
