ASUS GeForce RTX 3090 Ti TUF Gaming review





It's been boiling and baking for a while now inside NVIDIA's oven, a GeForce RTX 3090 'Ti'. The 3090 flagship series now gets even faster memory, more shaders, and a TGP passing 450 Watts. This review benchmarks the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti from ASUS in a TUF OC flavor.

Depends on your use case - at 8k many games are using 16-18 gb. Some even close to the full 24gb.


Not that anyone plays at 8k but even at 4k most newer games are using 10-12gb vram with raytracing effects even more.

Well... clearly i do xD Several games are very playable at 8k, provided that you have sufficient vram
But yes, even at 4k, i do see games getting up there.

DCS at 4k was maxing out the VRAM of my 1080Ti, il have to see what it does to my 6900xt but it also loves system RAM, 32gb is deffo a requirement.

Having 24gb of Vram is wasteful atm but i'm still hoping that it'll get used better in future game titles.
I think the most i've seen yet is about 12-13gbs of gpu memory used but most games use less than 10gb.
I'm unsure how it works but does it still use all the Vram chips or only half of them.
Say i'm gaming and my gpu memory usage is 12gb so half the 24gb is that all the chips running @ 50% or half the chips running @ 100%?
I doubt anyone here even knows the answer to this question. Maybe ManuelG knows how the Vram is used.
I wish it was the latter in other words all the chips are used @ 50% in this scenario and not the other scenario where only 50% of the chips are used @ 100%.
