About this deal

I have expected some concerns about my PSU however the rest of my PC is very low power consuming, so I'd assume it is up for the task.

According to my calculations, the rest of my PC takes up to 160W, so it leaves 490W headroom for GPU with any power spikes, so after UV it should be well within 80% power draw margin. I started testing at 2,560 x 1,440 as the RTX 4080 makes no sense for 1080p gaming, and used a mixture of ray tracing/DXR tests, enabling DLSS mostly at the top of the resolution scale to show fps scaling. Credit is provided by Novuna Personal Finance, a trading style of Mitsubishi HC Capital (UK) PLC, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. This is the way to get big frame rate improvements in Flight Simulator, nearly doubling the performance to not using DLSS at all and even at 4K you're getting frame rates that will cater for most high refresh rate monitors too.Temperatures usually hovered around 60°C, and with the power draw above you'd kind of hope to see such low gaming temperatures given the absolutely enormous cooler. Very professional outlet and will definitely be using again myself soon as well as recommended to my many gaming buddies that are looking for new card or upgrades. Stepping up to 4K saw the RTX 4080 leapfrog the RX 6900 XT and would be the pick over the RX 6950 XT too given it offered a much higher average frame rate again. Founded in 1993 by Jensen Huang, Curtis Priem, and Chris Malachowsky, it's the only major company that was able to survive the wild early days of GPU design intact—and it did so through an unflagging commitment to quality and to always pushing the envelope. It’s powered by Ampere—NVIDIA’s 2nd gen RTX architecture—doubling down on ray tracing and AI performance with enhanced Ray Tracing (RT) Cores, Tensor Cores, and new streaming multiprocessors.

Absolutely beast of a card performs very well can max any game you throw at it also helps with video rendering so much faster than any card out there, always been a team green fan get this card you won't regret it. But at this point, if you aren’t splurging on an RTX 4090, we would advise waiting for both the GeForce RTX 4080 16GB and AMD’s RDNA 3 counter-punch to materialize, as we’re very close to both hitting the streets. The test system uses the Nvidia release driver for the RTX 4080 and the latest drivers as of November 10th 14th for other Nvidia and AMD cards along with a fully up to date version of Windows 11. Adding in DLSS and we have yet more impressive numbers compared to the RTX 3090 Ti and strangely here the RTX 4090 lost a lot of its lead.However, for the speediest, safest postal service - select Royal Mail 1pm at checkout and you'll have it by 1pm the day after dispatch. i've bought several GPU's for mining and all either come plastic wrapped from the manufacturer and/or sealed with the manufacturer's tape.

You’ll also have to be willing to put up with the quirky power connector issues, fast CPU requirements, and getting it to fit your case. A Founder’s Edition RTX 3090 requires a minimum space of 313mm x 138mm (L x W) and will occupy 3 PCIe slots. The RTX 3090 falls short of the 60fps goal for 4K (though it could hit that by dropping some graphics settings), and even its 3090 Ti variant can barely scratch that golden standard.The last thing i did was benchmark the GPU and sure enough it doesn't even perform above the 8th percentile in comparison to every other 3090 GPU out there. The performance gains under 4K on the 4090 aren’t as significant, especially when accounting for CPU bottlenecks. I'm primarily a PC gamer and have been for over 8 years now and with no specific genre I enjoy, I have been able to play and love many titles from the past decade. The red lights of death are on the pcie power connectors on the card, there is an led on each power connector if any light up means either bad power or the card is now dead and needs an RMA, so the card is useless now.
