Cyberpunk 2077 / GeForce RTX 4090 runs up to 2850 MHz / 50C temperatures
Cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p on its crazy settings preset, with DLSS, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 apparently boosts up to 2.8 GHz (2810 to 2850 MHz) at factory settings.
The RTX 4090 achieves 59 frames per second at native resolution (49 at 1% lows) with a 72–75 milliseconds frame time. Graphics processing unit (GPU) temperatures are observed in the region of 50 to 55 °C. The average latency drops to 53 ms and the frame rate increases by nearly twice to 119 FPS (1% lows) when DLSS 3 is activated. Since latency has been cut in half, this amounts to a net increase of two times the frame rate. It is also claimed that the energy consumption has been cut down considerably. DLSS "quality" 3 reduces power consumption by 25%, from 461 W while rendering at native resolution to 348 W.

The shift in workload from the FP32 cores to the tensor cores, which execute the DLSS algorithms, likely contributes to the power numbers. Instead of using the entire GPU for brute force, which is inefficient and drains more power, the specialized tensor cores at these talks can analyze the data far more quickly and efficiently, all while using less power. We can't wait to get our hands on some review samples of DLSS 3 and see if it truly is a game-changer.

Mr. Bean, played by Rowan Atkinson, was inserted into "Cyberpunk 2077" and fits in quite well! The portion with the middle finger was simply too perfect!:-) ...

If true, then honestly no one has anything to worry about in regards to case temps either, as lots of 57c air wont be nearly as bad as getting scorching hot 80c air to the rest of the components.
But even if they aren't true, i think i will be ok - even with my 3090 strix running full tilt at 480 watts, all temps are looking very decent - cpu maxing out at 59c, mobo 45c etc.

So with a 4090 strix running at potentially 100 watts more... maybe things would get 5c hotter, but i don't think it will make too much of a difference.
:p Showoff!!!
Listen you ole goat.
Those awesome PQ settings mate? You're gonna cough them up. No questions! No debating! No Negotiating! Either your gonna get down or your gonna lay down. No need to push up virtual daisies when ya don't have to. The choice is yours. Now let me feel the fiber of that Cyberpunk fabric.

Ya got 24 hours!

It doesn't say whether that's a closed system or a test bench, can make a big difference with this level of TDP.
The huge heatsinks on these cards are likely there to handle 5-600W.
Being able to increase power limit by 50%, wow.... I think if I got one, I would probably not increase the power limit much, if at all, probably

Erm....so instead we are happy with 5 slot solutions like the gigabyte one lol.

Well in that case, wait for the next generation.
That's pretty far from 55-57C and 2800MHz boost
I think @TheDigitalJedi numbers are from his own rig with a 3090 - NOT a 4090.
...oh
I thought it was leaked numbers. My bad!
No problem fellow Guru. I thought you were referencing the difference between the 3090 and the 4090.
