10 extra FPS on a 4090 at 120% power? That sounds like a total waste to me. No offense.

On a lower class card, the differences are even smaller.
10 fps is huge when you're going from 30 to 40, 50 to 60, etc, especially in 4k ultra settings. Trust me, the difference is massive especially for some of the highest demanding games I've mentioned.

We're talking about a 4090 here. When does it do 30 FPS in any game?

Cyberpunk goes down to 30ish with path tracing, but most aaa open world/ish games run from 60 to 90 fps 4k epic with RT
But then, that 30 doesn't suddenly become 40 by increasing the power limit by 20%, does it?

The previous 8-pin were rated for 150W but could actually sustain 300W on each cable. Whereas the 12VHPWR is rated for 600W but its max power draw before melting is 630W... definitely not as safe as the old 8-pin certification was for sure.
1200W for a GPU would be nonsense though. I hope we never get there! It's going to create so much heat...
I'm running 4x8 pin original adapter with my 4090 Sup X OC on a 1000w psu, never had a issue. No one needs a 1600w psu. 1000w is fine for 5090, unless you oc the crap out of an Intel cpu. I'm going to be using same 1000w psu for 5090 (mast likely a Suprim X) with the 4x8 pin adapter as long as it's one connector or comes with it's own adapter. I don't think my PC has ever hit anything above 800-850 max spike.

But then, that 30 doesn't suddenly become 40 by increasing the power limit by 20%, does it?
No, but it does with OC of clocks and memory. I'm not gonna get that with less power either, maybe, but won't be stable probably.

Let's wait and see for the reveal tomorrow... but I'm betting on 50% in Raster & 60-70% in RT/PT !
That would be a massive upgrade if true. I don't remember 3090 to 4090 was that high, but could be wrong, been a while.

Ok 1999 isnt too bad, kinda expected. The problem is, aibs will be 2100 to maybe 2500, looking at you strix

Great AC keeps room temp just the same.
So impact is 0c in room temps because of that.


U dont know what AC is,right?
its not a Hevy band..


U should know Energy Efficiency and power usage is 2 dif things.

Maxwell and pascal is just bad..
4000 series is most energy efficient gpus there is Atm

Power usage and performance =Energy Efficiency

If GPU use +300w or more that dosent mean it cant be Energy Efficient

Rtx4090 +350w gpu is more Efficient than Rtx3050


At this point you are too stupid to even realize you are stupid.

Oh yeah I know I had a Corsair AX 1500i and it was working perfectly with it too! But with GPUs now going over 600W we might need 2x 16-pin or 8x 8-pin that would be insane lol.

Yeah but it's confirmed 4x8 for 5090 and 3x8 for 5080. So it's good. As ugly as 4x8 is, it's still safer than a single cable, especially with what happened.
