    Well...He might seem that way, but he knows his stuff pretty well, so that might appear like a bit " overconfidence " I guess, but his reviews are fairly accurate and in this overview, he speaks the truth about 3090.
    Unless you need it for professional work, for gaming, this card  is whey overpriced for what you getting, that might hurt a lot of 3090 owners, but it’s the true.

    To me it's irrelevant, and actually no one elses business who buys the card (and yes, I know I have one).....they earned the money to do so, it's not your money...so your opinion is not something you should even say to them.

    Relax, he's not talking to people who have already purchased the card and this video was made weeks ago.

    He's just talking about the value compared to the FE for anyone considering purchasing it. He's just stating his opinion that there's not $300 of added value in the FTW3 and I can't say I disagree with him. Not sure why you're taking it personally unless you also agree and you feel ripped off.

    My 3090 FTW3 Ultra is still faster in raytracing on stock air than the fastest 3080 that was Ln2 cooled, so there's that ;-)

    He does seem to be getting more full of himself as time goes on. 
     
    But then that's not unusual with some YTers, some actually don't get that way however.

    pretty similar to my views. 3090 is clearly the new 2080ti, if you want the best of the best you pay to join the ftw3 club.

    not sure he had the new BIOS with the higher limits in those test ... & why FurMark - thought Nvidia limits the GPU with that software
     
    performance/dollar is a personal choice .... No one "Needs" a $1800 GPU
     
    Game performance looked good as I jumped through the video ...

    No one needs a car with 500+ horsepower but lots do buy them. If life was only about what we need and not sometimes what we want, it would get very boring very fast.

    They will sell ... people "Want" them .... faster always cost more regardless of your hobbies
     
    comment was all about perceived value .... you do not "Need" a new Corvette to get groceries ... but I bet it is a fun & fast ride for those who get one

    Cars are a good example.. You don't see Top Gear often going "We're not going to drag race because they're only 0.1 seconds apart, instead we'll focus on how quiet the interior is."

    🤔 Dont buy new refresh series are coming like AMD GPUs😸😼

    Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

    Funny, because he also said (like Steve from GN) that going over FPS charts was a waste of time since they're all within a margin of error of each other for each AIB 3080. He didn't mention the fan header on the card though, which is of interest to a lot of people, so you could saw his review was less thorough.

    They actually know how to do a hardware review. 
     
     
     
     




    Funny, because he also said (like Steve from GN) that going over FPS charts was a waste of time since they're all within a margin of error of each other for each AIB 3080. He didn't mention the fan header on the card though, which is of interest to a lot of people, so you could saw his review was less thorough.




     
    BUT,
     
    He showed them because it was a, guess what? ...... Gaming card review.... 
     
    Imagine that, showing how a gaming card performs in, you guessed it.... GAMES.....
     
    WOW imagine that... Must be a new idea... 
     
    Or maybe they just know how to do a hardware review.

    Hardware unboxed did a much more interesting broad overview.. Not just a cooler review.

    I mean, RTX 3080 performance is already widely known and published, with a negligible difference between AIB models. There is nothing of substance being added by showing those charts, literally zero new content or discussion points. If that kind of non-data is important to you, then power to you.
     
    You sitting here and asserting that GN doesn't know how to do a proper hardware review is, quite frankly, amusing at best. Steve from GN has earned the trust of his audience and is far more knowledgeable in anything regarding enthusiast PC hardware than most people out there, especially random people on forums who think they know better. If he is saying it is a waste of not only his time, but also the time of his audience, to show meaningless charts that don't add anything to making an educated purchasing decision, I think most would be inclined to believe him.

    So he was just too lazy to add a few charts in the video to validate what he was saying....
     
    Either it's a hardware review or it's not.
     
    GN used to do very good reviews in the past.
     
    Not so much however lately..... Seems more interested in self promotion than doing actual proper reviews anymore.

    🤔 Dont buy new refresh series are coming like AMD GPUs😸😼



     
    LOL..I know the refresh will be coming too soon, it kills me. But I have no card at all, I sold my 2080Ti right before the announcement and will not be able to wait until then especially with CP2077 coming. My guess would be spring 2021 at the earliest and even then would it would be a huge SLAP in the face to early adopters. Even if the refresh came in in summer 2021 I would be suicidal after spending $1800+tax. If Nvidia made the unprecedented move of refreshing so early it would be horrible for their biggest fans. I know they will refresh on TSMC 7nm sooner or later and yet I cannot stop myself from buying a 3090 FTW if the email comes....Please help!!! And what about Big Navi XTX. If 6900XT w/ 16GB is better than 3080 (probably not as good as 3090, but close) again it would be really bad if I was to buy now. This situation sucks. AMD would be doing themselves a favor by releasing benchmarks early, unless Big Navi is ANOTHER flop. EVGA just put me out of my misery and let me buy a 3090 FTW so I can stop thinking about it.

    Personally I find this guy to be a smug arrogant (can't say)..
    but that's me. I don't watch his stuff.
    Nothing against you specifically. A lot of people have that response when facing "truth that hurts" or others with "higher intelligence/education".


    GN's reviews are some of the most unbiased, thorough, and transparent ones out there when it comes to pure performance and proper testing methodology.
    It's abundantly clear that their staff, incl. Steve, have adequate technical background and/or understanding to provide such reviews. This is often lacking in many other orgs (incl. many of the larger ones).

    I have rewatched a GN review 2 or 3 times because it is so much information so fast it can be hard to retain if doing something else while listening.

    Some people watch reviews for reinforcement of their own opinion, rather than to learn. Gamers Nexus is not the place for the former. The channel's reviews are never 100% positive since no product is perfect. If you want less technical sophistication, LTT is still informative for the most part, but caters to people that are inclined to perceive arrogance when faced with concepts they don't understand or care about.
