Lol this genuinely feels like it could rip the PCI-E slot off, hanging 2KG off your motherboard
That looks cool.
A bunch of Lego bricks to hold it up.

Who's waiting for the 3090 and which brand are you getting?

Why are you so hung up on FPS? Granted it is important, but there are also other factors! For example stuttering when buffering textures. In flight sims in VR they will easily eat more than 10gb of VRAM, so the experience in VR will not be hampered by the same amount as on the 3080. MSFS @4K uses around 8 to 9gb of VRAM. Top of the line VR headsets are higher than 4K. 3840 * 2160 = 8'294'400 pixel. 2160 * 2160 * 2 = 9'331'200 pixels (Reverb G2). That's a 9% increase in pixels, topped off with the fact that the GPU is having to render 2 scenes at the same time. Preloading textures into VRAM for VR is way more important for user experience than it would be for pancake vision because the stuttering induces nausea.

@fx1 bore off mate. It’s getting tedious now.
For me, the 3080 was not a large enough leap over my 2080 Ti Aurous Xtreme WB which runs at stock close to 2100 mhz, and gaming on a 4k 144hz monitor every fps counts. The 3090 made sense especially as it will be sitting next to an 8k TV which I can use for immersive games.
Theres a great video on YouTube showing the 3080 crapping out on 8k due to limited memory. Since I will be using 4k for high FPS and 8k for immersion, the 3080 would have been an absolutely atrocious decision.

This is very true! 8K in Control requires 18.5gb of VRAM! The 3080 simply cannot do this and would be a stuttering mess.
msfs for instance the cpu single thread is more of a issue then the 10gb vram. We don’t know how much of the vram a game uses. The only reasonable assumption we can make is from the game allocation it’s requested. I’m not saying 10gb won’t be a problem I’m sure it will and will only get worse with direct access and all that stuff. Not because 10gb vram isn’t enough but without any reliable way of seeing how much a game uses we’re all in the dark
ir requests 18.5gb of ram we have no idea if it uses that much

Yep - the G2 looks great =)
@Ali this one looks so much nicer inside a case to help with the 3080/3090

8k is a stuttering mess full stop. Another marketing con pushed out by Nvidia. Maybe you should unsub LTT and watch GN instead.
You still dont understand the difference between VRAM Allocation and USAGE.
It doesnt matter how much VRAM you have if you dont have enough GPU power its irrelevant for games.
Do you realise its the same core in the 3080 and the 3090? You realise they have the same capability give or take 10%?
Your argument is akin to saying that your car is faster because it has a bigger fuel tank.
When GN makes his comments about the "bigger number = must be better?" marketing tricks hes talking about people like you... who clearly dont understand a thing other than bigger number = better...
No, my car is faster because it has an electric motor
I know, they make no sense economically either - unless it is your company car, then it makes sense. To each their own, and to each their own purpose. The people who moan about others choices just like to moan I guess.No, my car is faster because it has an electric motor
If you are happy to be one of the "target market" then that is up to you.
Just know that the target market they are going after could also be described as "the fools whos money is easily parted"
Are you sure about this? Seems like you are spending a lot of your time saying otherwise?
My GPU hasn't cost me a penny personally, and my car is the cheapest I can get as a company car due to how BIK works - so again, like I said before, to each their own and for each their own purpose! What works for you doesn't work for other people!
You have a serious chip on your shoulder mate. Why are you even in a thread that has absolutely nothing to do with you other than to troll. You joined in 2015 and almost 50% of your posts are trolling. Stick to the 3080 thread where most people will agree with what you have to say. Not here.
Thats now how it works. A GPU is just a GPU. it doesnt work for one person and not another.
No.

Just report him or stick him on the ignore list. Totally derailing the thread now.
Look I have just bought an £8k omega watch. Why didnt I buy a cheaper watch for a £1000 which tells the time probably more accurately than the Omega does?
Why should I? You really do have a chip on yoru shoulder. This forum has a very high percentage of top 1-2% earners in the country. Why shouldnt they drop £1700 on a gpu if they wanted to?
I mean a guy on the forum spent £2800 on the two 2080tis in my sig and only kept them 3 months before selling them to me for £1500. Same with the 9980xe he bought for £1750 and sold to me less than a grand.
