It is time to review and benchmark the actual premium flagship graphics card, all hail the might that is the GeForce RTX 3090. Armed with a Shader core count that will make your eyebrows frown and a nauseating 24 GB of blazingly fast GDDR6X graphics memory.

Funny how people keep saying double the price for 10% performance.
It has freakin' 24GB of VRam, which adds atleast 400 dollars to the cost. On top of that it has a way bigger cooler, which is also a 100 bucks, and add 300 bucks for the extra cores etc etc.
The price is perfectly on point.
Keep dreaming if you think the 3080 20GB is going to go for 700 as well.

I do wonder looking at a bunch of reviews if 10gb even holds the 3080 back. See a few reviews where they look at 8k games and the differences between the cards are about the same 10-15%
Meaning the 3080 is clearly not being bottlenecked by vram as that is going to require the most.
Think the big issue with vram is we are so in the dark about it. Just cause after burner shows me using 8gb in cod doesn't mean it actually needs or wants that amount. Just that it's allocating it on a just in case situation. It could in fact only need 4 or 5 but with no way of telling it can become quite hard for us consumers to make a good choice.

10% more performance but 50% more cost... Not worth it. Yet the cards are still sold out lol. Bots and scalpers again?

$500 or 400? Your numbers keep changing and both seem really far off.

Kinda wish you called out Nvidia's bullshit marketing slides for 8K gaming. Their marketing needs to be reigned in and called out. It's borderline just making up numbers at this point.
The card should have been labelled a Titan and gaming should have been taken off the table.
