GeForce RTX 3090 Founder review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 09/24/2020 02:08 PM [ 160 comment(s) ]

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.

my initial reaction was to laugh really loud but now I'm just sad I expected more for the price why didn't they call it Titan ? I would have expected exactly the results we have but wouldn't be sad/angry about it because "well it's a titan, not for me"
well that settles it for me I'm going to wait for AMD cards and/or the 3080 20Gb I'm waiting for a waterblock version anyway so wasn't expecting to have availability in 2020

the high wattage while I get it that power doesn't come free there's a limit to what is bearable in non-aircon countries, it's one of the reason I gave up gaming on threadripper my room was constantly hot (mostly due to the trx40 motherboard/chipset to be honest, the cpu barely does anything in gaming so it's 10-20° colder than a 9900k while gaming)

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.

For a non millionaire gamer with kids all those don't matter much though. This card is pretty much the GPU version of a 3950x. Very interesting option if you are a small content creator not willing to break the bank with Threadripper and Quadro but for gamers just not worth the price asked. The confusion arise from the name of the card. But lot of people from the get go said this was going to be a titan card which it is.

Yeah, I was wondering about that as well. But the difference is 500gr extra heatsink :) When you have one of the cards in each hand, you'll understand, cooling is just massively bigger.

Can i touch it for a few days hilbert ? then i send it back xD

How kind of Nvidia to take a loss for gamers everywhere :rolleyes:.

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.
It would've been nice to see that but I don't know what good it would have done. Nvidia has already suckered people into liking quality degradation, making up numbers is the next step.

That argument may work for the FE but falls short regarding AIB since they use the same coolers as for the 3080 afaik.

There is no SLI support after the end of the year.
I thought the deal was that nVidia no longer sends SLI profiles for games, instead it's up to the developer to include SLI support in their game.
