I was thinking the same thing. Fuller fat 512 bit Titan for the whales and the 448 bit cut down version for the smaller whales.

For reference it was 15.3 billion usd in 2022.

The whales that are willing to buy a enthusiast level card are definitely shrinking and limited in scope. I forsee some enthusiasts waiting for rdna5 for a market correction.
Didn't the 4090ti concept leak 2 of those 12v connectors? With one connector the current 4090 designs should suffice in terms of cooling. The throttle monster is missing a libm. Maximum Facepalm!
Enthusiast level tier touted for the Chinese ai market that matches the mid tear vram size from its competitors that will likely cost more than the rejected price from it's previous 4080 at $1199. Would Pcie 5.0 make a difference when tpu shown pcie scaling with the 4090 with 1 outlier?
enjoy
Hopefully me being critical on AMD's lack of competition in the enthusiast level graphics will make them more competitive fingers crossed!
Life is too short plus Ch!na is eyeing Taiwan especially with current admin. Hence why I went with 4090. Lol. Also I did it for science.
strange my 3090/9900ks was using 450 to 500 watts of power at 115 fps dips into to the low 100s at same settings/res. I am satisfied with it. Can you do you results in the scaling in the other titles I posted?
I personally got to play Vermintide 2 at maximum efficiency with maximum settings using 4090 suprim liquid and 7800X3D around 300 to 350 watts of power multiplied by 1000 hours give or take; Along with dozens of triple aaa titles that was a very immerse experience .

There is always the smoke and mirrors trick at a premium called dlss exclusive to Blackwell features. Remember when Nvidia said dlss will reach level 10. When mid range 4000 series dropped I already knew that Nvidia will be moving away from the hardware improvement model to a software...
Rumors changing by the day 5080 rumored to launch before 5090 with 4090d like performance with 16 gigs of vram and 95 sms on 4n node. With plenty of 4090s still in circulation Nvidia doesn't want a 3090ti like event where prices dropped by half. Hence the rumors changing every day. Daily...
True but some people spend more on alcohol, drugs, tobacco, golfing etc etc. Plus the 4090 doesn't become paper weight on the 5090 coronation day. It should hold value in the second hand market especially if the rumors of it being superior or equivalent to the 5080 in performance. Hey I...
I said this when the 4090 dropped until the lowest common denominator has the rt capability of of the 4090 specifically the console hardware rt will be a niche enthusiast level experience. We probably will not be there until PS6/pro.
