    Paul, your videos from around 12-13 years ago (when you were still working with Newegg) taught me how to build desktops. And now here I am still watching your content.
    Thanks for reviewing and comparing two different models of the cards. I'm obviously much more knowledgeable about this stuff nowadays, however, I am looking for both the performance and temperature differences between all of these 4090 cards - as I plan on getting one (if they're ever actually in stock, haha).
    So, needless to say, it doesn't seem to matter which one you go with in terms of gaming performance. But the temperature differences are definitely interesting. So thank you for showing that!
    I have pre-ordered one of the new power supplies so that I don't have to use that crummy adapter cable... But unfortunately, the PSU will arrive next week which will be way before I can even order a 4090 lol. Oh well. Maybe before the holidays I'll be able to snag the MSI Suprim X (air-cooled edition). Fingers crossed 🤞
    And thanks again!

    Nice job on the review. It seems like some cards have the voltage locked and are up against the voltage limit, so increasing the power does nothing. But the voltage is adjustable on some. However it also seems like overclocking doesn't gain much performance and produces a lot more heat. What I'm gathering is that all the cards are very similar in performance and the FE is right there with everyone else.

    I really enjoy this type of comparison. Seems like the raw performance is pretty equal. But if you have a network, sound, or storage card installed then the MSI might be a winner due to space. And if you want something quieter, then Gigabyte gives you that with their fan/cooler design. And of course if you want the most aesthetically pleasing, just pick your favorite and don't worry too much about losing performance.

    • @Hubris2
      @Hubris2 Před rokem

      I've heard it suggested elsewhere that Nvidia are binning their GPUs and keeping the best for their own FE cards - which further makes the value proposition for 3rd party cards challenging. This was part of the discussion when EVGA left the market and how they couldn't make a profit when directly competing with Nvidia - particularly when their solutions with increased cooling and power delivery were having to try make up for the silicon itself potentially being slightly less-capable.

  • @hesthatguy

      150 premium on AIO is not a bad deal at all - for comparison, just a water block from AlphaCool for custom loop will set you back more than that. The question is whether this time around they used appropriate materials or it's still bound to corrode through and terminally fail after few months of use. Both MSI and Gigabyte released junk for 30 series in this regard.

      yep, cheapest 4090 Strix I can find is 2500USD here in Denmark (or 19000 DKK), altho lesser variants like the TUF version can be found for 2.1k USD (all out of stock though, only preorder).
      To be fair, the 25% sales tax for the 1600USD msrp does equal more or less that price, around 2-2.1k USD so it's not as bad as what I've seen elsewhere, but some places still try to ask almost 3k for base spec 4090 cards. 3 years ago you could get an entire top-end gaming pc for that money.

And if watercooled, would the bare minimum to keep it cool reqwuire the use of a 120 or 140mm radiator?

    Got the Gigabyte Gaming OC, it's a powerhouse, I'm benchmarking it in Blender benchmarks (because that's what I'm using it for) and it's showing good numbers, overclocking past 13000 with minimal effort and temps in the mid 50'c or lower (Room is 68'f).
    What I find confusing is the power (Using MSi Afterburner because the Gigabyte CC software kept crashing, even crashing windows for a while) it runs higher numbers at 50% than 75% than 133%.
    Even at 25% (which is around 150w) it runs a OC benchmark of 6792 which is around a 3090ti.
    I guess this means that 100% is 600w but it never gets near that in the graph, always topping out around 330w....not anywhere close to 450w - so I'm a bit confused, getting great numbers but the wattage looks low.

    the biggest advantage with the suprim x is that you can improve the gpu cooling and lessen the overall noise with a push-pull fan setup on the radiator... i did that with phanteks t30 fans that are much better than any aircooled fan, so i don't see an issue with overheated liquid shortening the life of the pump... with the aircooled cards you can't improve the cooling.

  • @Talishar

    I think a better video idea personally would be how the FE versions of the 4090 hold up against the base, MSRP versions from each manufacturer. Would be interesting to see how they all perform and it'd put to bed the general belief that Nvidia "bins" the best GPUs for themselves.

    • @loganrussell48
      @loganrussell48 Před rokem +3

      Not that it matters *that* much, but I think a graph of fps/watt would be neat to see which card is more efficient in terms of the frames it's providing, rather than having to do the math ourself.
      Honestly you could do watts/fps, I just thought that people would like the graph to be "bigger bar mean better" so thats why I said the other way around. If you're clear that smaller bar means more efficient, then I think the numbers look nicer when its watts/fps because its above 1.
      To be clear, I know Watts/frames/second is the same as energy/frame (because power is energy over time). So you could also graph energy per frame at the average(or median if theres spikes/outliers) fps.
      Ultimately just an efficiency graph would be nice / neat to see.

    Hey I don't know if you'll even see this comment over a year later but I've been trying to just find dimensions of 4090s for comparison to try and figure out what might fit and these days I find the width of the card (that is, how far it projects perpendicular to the plane of the motherboard when socketed into the PCI-E port) is probably more important than length given the inflexible design of the power adapter. Still a great video, and thanks for everything you do.
