#Nvidia #Geforce #RTX4090
Thank you for the awesome review comparing the differences :) This matches up with what i've tested, including the higher memory temps on the Liquid X. Not a problem for normal usage, but less than ideal for overclocking.
Strix, 20% more cost, 20% more size, for 1% more performance. wooooooooOOooo.
Don't forget the ugly red and blue plastered all over it. What were they thinking
@@SuperSavageSpirit Who cares, the backplate is really good looking.
@@Kaspar0v THAT's what you care about? A backplate? You want to spend that much for a backplate? Then go get a custom one made, ricer. Get a bodykit to match.
@@Kaspar0v Who cares what the backplate looks like? I'm busy looking at the game I'm playing.
@@Cruor34 your not telling me your only game on your PC all the time?
Great video. I'd have loved to see improved performance too however for me it's well worth the money to buy the STRIX for a "slightly quieter" card.
Size of the cards is also of importance. the founders rtx 4090 might fit in my lian li tu150. seeining the cards next to each other helped me decide (if possible comparing the cards with predecessors 1080, 2080, or so would be practical for me at least) and I am in no rush - thank you
Great comparative review, Nada. I agree with your advice in using a dedicated 12-pin GPU power connector from the power supply manufacturer or Cable Mod.
Cablemod has had so many of the cables burn up.. i stuck with what came in the box & have had zero issues.. bought the 4090 suprim x liquid on Dec/2022 My power supply is an Asus Thor 1200w plat v1 so it didnt have a 12 pin to 12 pin.. otherwise i would of used psu cable to make it cleaner.
Good video. I'd have liked a founders but utterly impossible to get one and the scalpers prices for them suck. Especially in the first 14 days after launch. I managed to get a gaming oc from gigabyte for the same price the guy bought it for (rrp) and I've had no issues at all. I'll maybe try the silent bios after watching this. Cheers.
Great video as always! Watching it a bit late as on launch I scooped up one of the few 4090s in Canada. I acquired the Gaming OC 4090, been getting a nice manual overclock without my external cooling turned on and just stock cooling. With my subzero outdoor filtered air pumped in, man does this card output HEAT OC'd at 3150Mhz and memory at +1500. Probably the only person with that 4090 in a Corsair 680x case. I have front glass delete + ducted external cooling and if I were to take off the ducting now the card would be poking out of the front. My setup is dumb, but I've always loved my DIY ghetto high end overclocking builds.
Would be nice to look at a picture of that setup, using the outdoors cold air for cooling is a great idea!
Great roundup! This is my new favourite channel. Where were you all this time?!
great review! It's nice to have a summary of all the main cards, and not have to worry about all the random lower end cards.
I have the gaming OC 4090. I have been water cooling my cards for the last 20 years due to noise and heat. The Gigabyte card really is something else, it's quiet, overclocks to 3GHZ stable and all on air. I love this card, super highly recommended. I can't believe the power TBH.
Does it have coil whine?
Not even a hint of it
I wish I could find one in stock
Too loud for an open air case that’s on my desk?
I am interested in this card but worry about the noise, in your case, which pc case do you use ?
This video was great. It actually helped me making my decision on which card to get. Thank you Nada!
Excellent video and very informative, exactly what I needed thanks!
how about the coil whine?
Easy answer: None. Either wait for AMD or get a 3080/3090. Much much better value and reliability.
Great review - love the channel. Access to any of the cards is the most salient issue for me.
Suggest me a good 4k gaming monitor..... I was thinking for lg ultragear 38GN950.. But if you have any better suggestion then please recommend me one.... I want a monitor of 27 inchs 1ms rspnc time, good refresh rate and 21:9 ratio ... ## And also please answer one question.... That... Do i need a high end graphics card to run one of this monitors... Or the intel uhd 770 Or vega 11 i mn igpu s can handle this if I don't wanna play games....
Have you noticed any coil whine with the 4090 ?
For the future it would be good if you would mention the maximum power limit of each card.
Agreed I was thinking this entire video was pointless and just focused on how they look and ect.
In my experience with an EVGA Hybrid 3080, the water cooled cards will always overclock the best because of the lower steady core temps. My 3080 (FTW3 Ultra) I converted to Hybrid scored in the 99th percentile very easily even without reaching the full power limit of 450w because of EVGA's power delivery issues. It did that at about 390w iirc, but I haven't benched it in years.
Sure if you think it makes a massive difference even though all the 4090’s out there perform similarly when it comes to playing games…
noise test Leave much to be desired, what about the frequency of the noise? does any of the card have coil whine, Are the gpus at 100% utilization and at what % and rpm are the fans running?
Your work is fantastic 💖. Can you make us a video of your configuration, in particular the one you use to film?
While the comparison helps a bit, the most important comparison would be the reviewer's voice reference followed by noise samples of each card in their Silent and OC BIOS settings under maximum load. If coil whine occurs, there should also be specific noise samples for it. --robert jasiek
Great video! 😍👏 I appreciate the detailed comparison of all the models. 🙌
How did you get them? everywhere they are out of stock.
I got a founders edition from Priority access at best buy awesome And just installed the ek waterblock on it with active backplate both sides are nice and cool running on its own loop with 2 360 rads 👍
Greetings. Do you happen to know how the priority access works after a product like the 4090 has been launched? Is there some kind of quasi waiting list that you can place yourself on? Any specifics would be much appreciated!
My 4090 uses 240-260W after undervolting and temperatures are 44-46 degrees when gaming with fans at 50%. Performance loss is only around 10%, which is nothing when the card is so fast anyway. The high power arguement is a non-issue when you tweak the settings a little bit. Ironically the 4090 is the most efficient card I've ever used. Very happy with it.
And what about the power connector? No chance to install the major part of cards in 90% of cases without binding the cable before the 3.5cm recommader to avoid a problem with...
Thats what i am aiming for undervolting my 4090 gigabyte temps are great on the 4000 serie👍
@@IceCall I use the PCIE5 cable that came with my ATX3 PSU. No bends.
You can't call it the most efficient if you underclock it. You pay that much for it's performance offered. Everyone can undervolt their cards and say the most efficient. The default values actually matter.
@@IceCall There are cases. One of them is the Corsair 7000D Airflow. It doesn't even touch the glass.
Can you compare the 7900 XTX models please? (nitro+, taichi, merc, reference)
Have you tested the Asus 4090 Strix OC vs MSI RTX 4090 Suprim X? Thanks.
I've watched this video at least 20 times. Still have a hard time choosing. Should I stick with a FE that it's on the way, or try to sell it and go towards something else, something like Gigabyte or Strix? I would have loved to see how much can they boost while overclocking. Saw the MSI Suprim boosting the highest, followed closely by FE and even Gigabyte being high there. Asus Strix with its 600W can not reach 3000 Mhz. Also, I heard increased reports of MSI and Asus Strix having coil whine, and Gigabyte having none. Did you experience anything like this? Also, I understand that these were the models presented at the time, but any idea about the Aorus Master, is it any better than Gigabyte OC?
So what did you go with? I am looking to build a PC right now and i've picked everything top end so stuck on gpu ? Also whats coil whine
@@RAZORRRTV Got a 4090 Founders Edition as it was one of the first I could get at that time and the best price you could get. Now, you could get a 4090 FE, 4090 Strix OC, or 4090 Gigabyte OC. I think those are your best options. Coil whine is a sound that your GPU makes when it runs high voltage current into it. It makes a weird annoying sound the more is pushed. For some is very annoying and for some they other not hear it or it is not strong/annoying enough. Most of the 4090 have it, Founders Edition seems the most likely to not have it as it's the safest and lowest-clocked card. Everything OC and higher have a higher chance of having it. It's a lottery at some point even getting 2 cards from the same brand and model.
Which RTX can you get... that's more the question now
True
price here in Sweden is around 3k USD and they are in stock most of them
There are some in stock at msrp in France but the dollar is strong that they are even more expensive
🤣🤣🤣
I got the stix oc
Founders or ROG Strix OC? I have a white build but am having such a difficult choice choosing between the two...
Hello, my rtx 4090 strix only reaches 2685 mhz without overclocking. That is normal? I have the version that comes OC from the factory. Help someone knows if the problem may be from another component or something?????
INNO3D RTX 4090 X3 OC outperforms pretty much all these card in terms of noise and thermals .. And it's almost the same price as the FE version. You really should try and review that one if possible. My mind was set on the STRIX card, but I couldn't justify that pricetag!
I think the overseas pricing (much higher than USD RRP/MSRP) and the “adapters” may be swaying some from pulling the trigger on this GPU lineup. Here in Australia 🇦🇺 the RRP is $2959 (AUD) and the overclocked models are going for about $500 (AUD) more and the Strix is is roughly $3,800 AUD which is nuts!!! These are scalper prices at retail stores (I know our currency has taken a hit against the greenback (pffft freedom currency hahaha 😅😂🤣)
in germany the cards sell for 4660 aud, it's rare to find one for less, so it's even worse :D
Omg! That's awful!
So how is the Coil Whine on these cards which appears to be such a missed topic ?
Very informative actually, great upload.
Would be nice to also mention VRM and power phase differences as that mainly explains the price difference between the cards and why the strix carries such a high price premium. :)
strix tax just like aorus and corsair these brands will always cost more in most cases its sort of justified build quality and performance and look is what makes them what they are for people who want nice looking pc parts that can perform some what lets say but yes i hear ya man its crazy on the price tags in general
@@smkslpsd Gbahabahbahabahbahabahabahabha right how about u run and make sure u fall head first
Doesn't the Suprim X have a better VRM? 24 Phase on the Strix vs 26 Phase on the Suprim X.
@@rockethot yessir!
Who cares…all 4090’s have marginal differences when its come to performance. These bigger numbers dont mean much for 4090’s…let alone the oc’ing capability is trash on all models…1-3% performance gain…
Regarding the adapter melting issue, I have been torturing my 4090 (MSI) for weeks without any sign of a problem. KZheadrs JayzTwoCent and Gamer Nexus tried to reproduce the problem by abusing the cards way more than a normal user would (or could) and again not even a hint of a problem. Tens of thousands of cards (if not hundreds of thousands) have been sold and what do we have here? 12 cases on Reddit?? I think this issue has been blown out of proportion out of the interests of who knows who (though I do have a suspect in mind) without any serious finding to show for it. FUD at its best... *FUD not spread by Techtesters of course, which is one of my favorite channels out of the highest levels of intellectual honesty shown thru and thru
Exactly, I see a lot of fearmongering going on. People talk about this as if it were a very common issue. That said, NVIDIA did use cheap, crappy components on the adapter.
@@EarthIsFlat456 maybe so, but if I compare the alleged crappy materials to the cables i got with my Corsair PSU I see exactly the same things (or Corsair maybe knows some secret plastic alloy tricks I am not aware about?). The point is, no trusted source (like Steve at Gamer Nexus) has been able to reproduce the issue no matter the abuse, and that (plus the statistical numbers) just place a tombstone on this subject.
If i were to Water cool my GPU/CPU with a custom water loop build, then does it really matter which model i choose? considering i won't be using their Stock air-cooler with it ?
8:37 Is the darker bar the silent profile? If so, I wonder why the Gigabyte draws more power in silent mode.
Not sure either, normally the "cooler" profile draws a bit more power but it isn't always the case.
That Lego plant looks like it could really use some water. Don't make the mistake I did. I didn't water it and it died. Don't forget to use the right water too.
I picked the ROG one for 2 reason : 1st It's one of the only with with just 2 slot extremity that make it possible for me to fit it in my case WITHOUT removing any other card I already have. And the 2nd reason it's because it was one of the only available at this moment with this side xD
Can't argue with that :D
Good video but you didn't mention the biggest advantage of the watercooled version: it's much slimmer plus you don't have thermal problems when you run two of them.
Great review this has the two GPU’s in it that I was looking at.
The 4090 SUPRIM X is so good looking. I want that GPU so bad. I might wait until the 4090 Ti is released, and get the 4090 Ti SUPRIM X. It would be a monstrous upgrade over my 1080 Ti.
That would be a massive upgrade indeed :D But I expect a 4090 Ti, if it happens, will be at least 6 months away, if not way more.
November 2023. Good luck.
I upgrade from a 1080 Ti to the msi Rtx 4090 suprim and is overkill it will last aleast 7 years from now until i make the next upgrade so is worth it
@@TechTesters Seems like it ain't happening at all.
Shame :(
I have one Gigabyte and one Asus TUF OC and they also both perform about the same, with the Asus TUF OC looking quite a lot more professional, with the Gigabyte Gaming OC looking a bit "cheap" with the plastic and a RGB flashing from the fan spinning that is ok, but does not look amazing imo. Yet - the Gigabyte card performs so well for it's price that it's hard to beat - I'd pick a different card however if you have a vertical GPU mount and want to show it off in all it's glory :) (PS, The Asus TUF OC looks amazing on display)

I have the Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC! Running rock solid with a 190/600 OC (no change in power target) on the Silent BIOS! I get boosts of up to 2960MHz from what I can remember.
I got the gigabyte OC as well and I couldn't be happier with this card. It's pretty darn loud but I've never been bothered by pc noise.
@@readifer loud??? Are you by any chance using the OC bios? I can NOT hear my 4090 over my Liquid Freezer II 240 when gaming and it consistently boosts above 2900MHz
Is there going to be a 4090Ti?
Why isn't the MSI Gaming X Trio version of the card included in this???
How do they compare in terms of OC and coil whine?
i got 4090 msi gaming trio, an orrible coilwhine, get to RMA and get the refound.
Coilwhine is not vendor or card specified. Any card can have coil whine based on the card itself AND the power supply. I've heard complains of all cards listed on different sites.
@@marcoseghizzi4218 ouch
@@CesarinPillinGaming I see. I thought the board design can contribute in increasing or decreasing the level of coil whine so a comparison between them made sense to me as coil whine is more annoying than fan speed on these top models. I have a 4090 suprim x and there is a noticeable coil whine (not outrageous but noticeable and more noticeable than the sound of the fans in the gaming bios)
it kinda annoys me a little that most of those AIO gpu's are rarely 360 because yeah prize and size factor but having a case with 360 space and put a 240 rad up will look silly
There's one, the iGame Colorful Neptune 4090. check it out, however, getting one is too complicated and expensive af
@@AndreyStevn yeah there's always one each Gen but always hard to get 😅
Aorus Xtreme 4090 is a 360mm AIO
That's what i said too...Stupid to make a 240....Should make it 360...I'm sure most people who gets a 4090 can afford a case which fits a 360....a 240 which fits a 360 will definitely look stupid....just an empty 120mm space....lol
I agree, the suprim liquid should have a 360 and the cold plate should cover the GPU, VRM, & RAM sufficiently.
Where do you get the foam of the wall? 🥺 Looks hypercool!!!
Elgato Wave panels :)
How about MSI GeForce RTX 4090 24GB Gaming X Trio and GeForce RTX 4090 24GB Windforce V2 Slim? Cant find any information about the slim.
Why get a GPU with cable issues that are being ignored for $1600 USD (at least)? Now it's both the adaptors and the new 12vhp cable that are burning up and still no recall? The note 7 had less reported cases and sold over 2.5 million and that was recalled. This was a release of 100k GPUs and no recall?
I will wait for the 5000 series. Either I will pick up a 4090 then or go for the 5090 then. I have a 3080 at the moment which I payed too much for during corona years. And I hoped that this round, prices would go back to normal. They didn't.
Or you could just wait 20 years and get 4000 series for $50…. Your life isn’t infinite, technology will infintely improve but your lifespan will decrease. Also you have a 3080 why even bother upgrading
My plan was to get the 4090 (i got the 4090 FE) as it’s ridiculously powerful and skip the 5000 series. I’ll upgrade my entire pc rig at 7000 or 8000 series anyway.
How much will Cost 5090 in europe,more then now 4090?
Could somebody provide/link a recommended cable mod product for the 12 pin cable?
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
I love how Gigabyte (I got the 4090 Windforce) is the cheapest while having very low temps. Probably because other manufacturers decided that covering a heatsink with a bunch of important plastic logo design gamer abstract things is a good idea (only Gigabyte has a nice complete cutout on the backplate).
The FE is the cheapest
what about coil whine issues?
@@CragScrambler Not anymore, they are now the most expensive 4090 you can get as it's only sold by collectors and scalpers 3rd hand.
I bought a suprim X on release day, had to sell my 3090 to be able to afford it of course, it's an amazing product which delivers exceptional performance and is fairly quiet. Having a great time with it.
Hey can i ask where you mounted your GPU radiator on the PC?
@@TheMessiah1337 He bought the Suprim X which is air cooled and makes no use of an radiator!
Strange it's "fairly quiet" mine was completely silent, fan speed never going above 40%. Might want to add a few cass fans in the mix :)
any coil whine?
Fantastic video, well paced and not a lot of nonsense info. Thank you! Have a sub!
Great review. Thanks for all the info
Had the Strix and it just looks stupid vertically mounted on my O11DE, I sold that to a friend and got myself the MSI Liquid X, the card is honestly gorgeous vertically mounted and the one that EVERYONE should be going for if you value aesthetics even by a little bit. This is a great video, I bought my Liquid X after seeing your review! Thank you!
What do you think of the aesthetics of the regular Suprim/X?
The video noted the higher memory temperatures on the MSI Suprim Liquid X 4090 and I was wondering if that's a concern worth keeping in mind. It seems like it would be. I agree on the aesthetics being a selling point of it though. Also, my primary factor of purchasing a 4090 is having zero coil whine, so I'm wondering if you experience any coil whine with your MSI Suprim Liquid X 4090. It's between a founders edition, gigabyte gaming oc, and msi suprim liquid x for me. My budget is $1750-ish anyway, so the most expensive option I can afford is the msi suprim liquid x 4090.
No single Word about coil whine????most important for those cards
yep I still have to find an honest review about this topic related to these cards ....
Awesome and great review! Right to the point! I decided to go with Founders Edition.
Are thermals average during the test or peak?
Did any of the cards have coil whine?
Gaming X Trio have the most whine from what I've heard from ppl
I’m sure they all do. And if not later develop it. I have a 3080ti and the first 3 to 4 months dead silent then one day dx12 on Fortnite developed the could whine and not every game gives me coil whine 😂😂
@@reloadingdontshoot1 I actually think it's silicon lottery. I read some posts on a forum and 2 people with the RTX 4090 Strix had coil whine, 1 had heavy coil whine with the MSI Suprime X. Others with the MSI Gaming X, Palit etc cards had none.

good review. However I have a 4090 liquid suprim paired with a Ryzen 9 7950x3d and I've never seen my gpu temp over 56 c so not sure how your case is set up but I don't get even close to those temps even on the most demanding games.
I test on an open bench with no added airflow. Usually you can expect a good case to offer better performance (as it gives the GPU more airflow), and a bad case to worse if it acts as a hotbox.
Prices here in Holland for an 4090 are freaking ridiculous. Can't wait for the AMD reviews. Keep up the great work you guys and stay safe.
Unfortunately you can expect a couple extra hundred euros on top of their MSRP as well... So a rough guess would be 1500 euro for a 7900XTX, maybe even more... sadly :(
MSRP prices in the States are void of taxation. We get to pay the bill for taxation on transport cost and regular vats too.
@@Rem_NL And then some... current pricing here (nl) is a couple hundred over msrp. That's with tax already included. (That's for the 4090 that is.) Fingers crossed my 1080ti doesn't die on me...
In Romania, a FE 4090 is above $3200... Just saying. And the average salary for a year, is around $ 8500- $ 10000
why is the rog strix so expensive? costs 3.000€ and aint even better than the others
You should definitely add the PNY in the lineup; I have never seen such a silent and cool graphics card! The "Asus TUF Gaming OC" works at 2.4 sone (1.4 with quiet bios), which is already pretty outstanding (the FE is at 3.0!). But the "PNY" manages 0.9 sone!! Forgot: the full name is "PNY GeForce RTX 4090 XLR8 Gaming Verto Epic-X RGB Triple Fan"
I'd love to, but I can't get my hands on them here.
@@TechTesters Oh man, that sucks!
Can these cards outperform Nvidia in 3D rendering or made only for gaming! Experts please share your valuable knowledge so that I can decide weather to wait or not. Thanks.
The 4090 dominates in productivity. Nothing else comes close at the moment.
You should get asus strix oc when you compare to suprim X and other oc gpus
Nice comparison, I ordered the Zotac RTX4090 24 Go AMP Extreme AIRO because is the only 4090 that I could find in Stock at MSRP on EU, hope I don't regret lol
Zotac gets a lot of hate, but they are actually pretty good cards.

I would if I could, but I don't expect to see them any time soon.

I would personally go for the MSI Gaming X version. Cheaper, and probably practically just as good.
@@stevenross-watt8640 Rich people buying up some of the limited supply on offer is not exactly selling millions. I guess Nvidia is laughing all the way to the bank though seen as it probably costs them next to nothing to make them.
Could you review the Gigabyte RTX 4080 Aero OC? No benchmarks on it anywhere on the internet, I would love to see it put against the numbers you got here, it's one of the few white models available too.
This is very help and clear. 100% like. Can you do a ram comparison?
How did you get five 4090 cards with no coil whine? That's magic to me
No coil whine on my 4090 FE, either
I know right? I have returned 2 now so have no card at all atm since they're all out of stock lol
Probably white noise in the studio drowning it out, or other PC parts making a noise canceling it out, or hearing differences. 5 genuinely without coil whine would be almost impossible, especially at launch. MSI and Asus have made revisions since this video, so odds are better of getting one without coil whine.
Nice review again Nada.
Thank you!
Great comparison! You solved all my questions 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Getting a proper cable is quite difficult for beQuiet owners. They do offer a cable for 20€, but they dont deliver them. I placed my order about 3 weeks ago and so far it seems like the first actual deliveries will take place in december and january.
For me personally, the suprim liquid x is lookiny like a very tempting upgrade over my EVGA FTW3 3090. Itll free up a pcie 1x slot on my mobo thats currently entirely blocked by the behemoth 3090, along with a very substantial permormance boost.
Yep. I just upgraded to the Suprim Liquid X 4090 primarily because I had free rad space and the card is so much smaller than everything else.. Its hard to fit the 4090 in smaller cases and impossible in many mid-sized ATX cases like the NZXT H510i. The Suprim Liquid X fits wonderfully in the Hyte Y60 and others though.
10000+ dollars on a desk
maybe some honest responds for this is i9-10900k and the 4090 ok for gaming? i will probably wont go 4k or something like that but i want high fps and good quality when playing
Sure. But in some games the 10900k will hold the 4090 back compared to a 13900k or a 7000x3d. Especially at lower resolutions. A 4090 really only makes sense on 4K. Or at least. 3440x1440p or above.
@@TechTesters i see well im not planning to play every game but im doing 3d stuff and i need horse power so far i seen videos with the 10900k +4090 combo and the fps is above 100 even 200 so thats fine in terms of gaming beside working as a 3d creator
I'm waiting for a 4090 Suprim X air cooled here in the Philippines. For some reasons, they are not available. Only the liquid cooled one
Happy I was able to get the Gigabyte gaming OC. Seems to be a top competitor of the 4090’s
Lol gigabyte is trash. You're going to have thermal throttling issues.
These are all good cards actually, with heatsinks that massive, there's no way for reaching hot temps. Overheating GPUs are so 6 years ago.
Yup, I got my Gigabyte Gaming OC on the 12th at a local microcenter. I had it's max overclock dialed in after about 3 days at +250 core +700 mem using MSI afterburner. This is without touching voltage at all. Power limit is set to 133 percent and as well as max temp slider. ( tested with all heavy 3d mark stress tests, 3 hours ROG real bench/ 3 hours Aida 64) with 10/12 release day drivers. (Current 10/27 drivers are bad for the 4090 and all overclocks fail). My speeds in all games sits at between 2955 to 2970 mhz and temps never get above about about 63 degrees. Mabye I got a golden chip I dunno. As well, my 16 pin adapter is slight bent against the glass case of my Lian Li 011 Dynamic XL case without any "melting" issues and I have about a hundred hours now pushing this card. I'm happy with my Gigabyte 4090.
@@matthewkinsey9044 Good 4090s hit 3000 mhz. Especially if you increase the voltage.
Which RTX 4090 Should You Get? All of them because Jensen needs to crowdfund a new jacket
Hmmmmm....wasn't Lisa Su also wearing a leather jacket during some of the previous AMD presentations? Quite a few pics out there.
Get the one that comes with a fire extinguisher.
In alpaga leather
but whats the maximum power limit that you can push them.?
Thank you for actually knowing what you are talking about. Very useful information!
Update for those who don't have a 4000 series card yet: Overall, they are amazing and I would *highly* recommend them! However, I suggest waiting until the 5000 series GPUs drop in Q1 2024 so that the prices of the 4000 series GPUs drop drastically. These cards (or any with the chips manufactured by TSMC) are ones that will *always* show a massive performance jump. So, for those who will be able to afford a 5090 at launch, I would highly suggest that card as well - as the chips are also being manufactured by TSMC and a leaked and then pulled document showed that the 5090 PCB (which will be ever so slightly longer) will basically have *TWO* *4090s* internally linked together all manufactured using TSMC's 3 nanometer node process (vs 5 nanometer for the 4090 chips, hence why they can fit two of em' on the 5090's PCB). Those 5090 GPUs will be the first ever graphics cards to perform amazingly well in every title at max settings (raytracing being maxed out as well) at 4K resolution with the framerate on existing titles never dropping below 160fps! *Absolute* *insanity!* Sorry for this lengthy write-up - but I wanted to share this hopefully accurate information with those who read this! I mean, why else would that leaked document be quickly pulled if it wasn't true? Best of luck all! Oh, and thanks @Techtesters for this video, of course!
which region of your ass did you pull that out of?
@@sasca854 I pulled it out of yours. You're the one who shared the leaked document, silly goose.
I would highly recommend skipping the 5000 series and definitely waiting for the 9000 series
get the 7900 XTX
Aha, no way!
Thank You for this video, it's really good to know that there are different TYPES of GeForce RTX 4090 GraFix cards.
Wait, for the 4090 do I need an adapter with 3 x 8 or 4 x 8? Or does it not make a difference
4x8.
no thanks.. 7900XTX here i come...
I really think all the these comments about AMD being the saviour need to see some real tests and benchmarks before convincing themselves it's the way fwd. All going well the AMD cards will be great but I just want to see some real data first.
@@stevenross-watt8640 Unless you have 4k 144hz as a minimum the 4090 is pointless and over priced. The 3090 can do the same fps at 1440p and soon will be dirt cheap like the 6900 xt. The 7900 xtx will be 80% of the 4090 in raster which is still overkill but at least it's so much cheaper, smaller and has normal power connectors. The 3080 is going to be slow, overpriced with the same crap connector, unless they reduce it to £800 it's DOA. Nvidia have lost the plot big time.
As much as I like new tech, I just don't think people should buy Nvidia this gen. They have gone totally insane. For a lot of people, the 4090 is a lot more expensive than Justin whatever the card costs. Even some reasonably sized cases can't fit them, so people also need to buy a new case. Nvidia needs to get hammered this gen, if they're not I can see 60 and 50 tier cards costing $700 or more for next gen.
Don't forget the new power supply you have to buy, and the fire insurance you need in case the power cable melts and catches fire.
@@fred_derf Ah i see you don't know yet. Even PSUs with atx 3.0 12v hpwr standalone cables are melting. Makes no difference.
@@Roecky What part of *"and the fire insurance you need in case the power cable melts and catches fire"* makes you think I'm not aware that even ATX 3.0 power supplies with PCIe 5.0 12VHPWR cables are melting?
And power connectors melting, both on GPU and PSU end... 4000 series is a major shit show. Would stay far away.
You're right! Even if I got a RTX 4090 I can tell its to hefty overpriced even if the performance is very nice but you won't even need that performance in upcoming titles! RX 7900 XT or XTX is the way to go!!!
4090 FE my favorite! Was lucky enough to have found one the other day at Best Buy!
Any reason you left out or didn't mention the TUF?
I don’t believe they received that card for review.
