See here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/...pp&utm_name=iossmf

Seems that the 20% uplift over 3080 in games pans out. Remains to be seen what VR will be like. 3090 has already shown to be good for workloads like Blender based on some early benchmarks.

Looks like I’ll be holding out for a FTW3 Ultra. lol

    Yeah, I saw that... honest human, but how did he get a 3090 before it's official release date on Thursday? He did something if he managed to sidestepped the game, so I'm not sure I'd call him a normal consumer...

    He posted about that. He has an insider connection at MSI. So nothing weird.

    +30% over a 2080 Ti at 350w and typical OC in Timespy GPU, on air.  No idea if he's citing benches with an OC or increased power, or what power and clocks the Trio runs at stock, I think it's a custom card.

    The 3090 is certainly not for the enthusiast line. That's the 3080 and it fills that nicely. But when I want to go across RDR2 with 60fps and maxed settings.. plenty of times I'd have paid more to be able to do that. Heck, I've bought consoles just for one game. Buying a GPU just to play RDR2 4k60 maxed stable is well within the realm of my own madness. 20% is certainly not nothing.

    That's about 10% compared to the other reviews for MSI Gaming X Trio 3080 I have seen.

    If the cards are under an NDA wouldn't posting numbers online make him not an honest human?

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.

    Was going to say the same thing. Definitely a dishonest human at some point in this process.

    Good point. In terms of “honesty” I meant the benchmark numbers overall.

    Based on what we’ve seen out of reference and fe it would seem moar power plant is necessary. FTW3, HOF, STRIX and even then it’s looking a lot like it’s going to be a very moddy Xmas

    Eh, you 2 need to shut the front door. Nvidia's NDA only applies to people receiving press cards, not to the Earth's entire population.

    Going to have to agree here even though it may be a bit semantic.  The NDA applies to people who actually sign the NDA and if he was given the card, well he can't be held to it ;)

    It would be interesting to see if it's the card, drivers, games or a CPU limit. Of course I don't think many people are expecting a 100% increase and it does offer the option of 8K gaming which I feel will be important for E3 if they can display the games on a huge TV running at 60fps at 8K the details really would pop.
     
    As for the NDA being broken somewhere along the way someone signed an NDA and the card getting out broke that NDA. Any major manufacturer is going to have all employees sign an NDA to protect what they are working on.

    Was going to wait for the 3090 Hydrocopper, but the huge price increase over a small gain is disappointing.  I guess I'll keep playing the waiting game for reviews to decide between the 3080/3090 hydrocopper.

    Probably a mix of all of those honestly. Depending on the title. Assassins Creed has a very obvious bottleneck situation going on.

    I’m curious as to how the 3090 performs in games like Modern Warfare.

    Of course, the reddit thread doesn't clearly state if he is testing it at stock, just that he "achieved a mild OC".  Nor any of the clocks, etc.

    It's okay because his thermals were crap and it's already deep into the power curve so the 550 watts didnt serve him well.
     
    Honestly, with these higher tier semi binned cards like the ftw3 under water with 440watts, im guess you can achieve similar overclocks with the higher quality of the chips and better thermals. Possibly less, but if he was getting 10% you can probably achieve 8% under water.
    And if thats the case, it's a large uplift over the 2080ti. Over 50% @ 4k
    The 3090 overclocks better than the 3080 but both are underwhelming in this regard

    If you want to actually looks at all his numbers and testing, ext. peek into the overclock.net forums where he actually posted and ignore reddit

    This person got the card from *someone* they were not supposed to get it from. *Someone* violated the NDA at some point. Read in bold.

    There is no secret driver released to go along with these "3090" benchmarks. IF they actually have a 3090 in hand, they could be using the current driver that supports the 3080 and it might be skewing results. Here's hoping the 3090 IS 20% to 25% better, though.
     
    A lot of people on other forums have been calling me a fool for being willing to pay for the 3090, but I know myself. Just like a lot of y'all, I all too OFTEN will upgrade asap to the newest card (3080) and then a (3080) Ti version releases and I'm scrambling to sell my current card for less than I paid for it and then spending more money on the new card. For me, it's just better if I get the best I can get so I'm not buying and reselling Ampere cards for the next year or two lol.

    Thats where I'm at. I want the best nvidia can offer in the next 2 years. These rumors about a 20 gig 3080 etc. Ruins it for me. I don't want another super incident. I want to buy the best from the start and in 2022 get excited for the next big card.

    Finally, believable numbers and enough evidence to back it up. Even if he had to have Yakuza ninjas steal it from the back of a delivery truck.

    so between 10% and a stretched 20% fps increase?  for 1600 euros?
    i think not dear sir! 
     
    but good to know!! :D


    yeah, so far these numbers are not looking great, and unless you need the epeen points or live for benchmarks, its really not looking like a good idea.

    If the cards are under an NDA wouldn't posting numbers online make him not an honest human?


    The assumption he would abide the NDA is just that, assumption. If he didn't sign the NDA, he has no reason to follow it. Secondly NDAs are not 100% legally enforceable in all countries.

    Can barely reach close to 20% uplift in some games..


     
    I may be critical on the performance jump but at the same time, we need to allow the drivers to mature to see it's full potential along with dev optimization.
