What's even funnier is I have a "giganticly obnoxious 49" super ultrawide" (to quote the misguided OP) myself so it's not like I'm speaking from lack of experience 

 
Correct me if I'm wrong but going off the monitor which you listed in your signature which is a 3840x1080 49' monitor whereas the Samsung c49RG90 is 5120x1440. So you don't have the same  "giganticly obnoxious 49" super ultrawide". You have an ultrawide monitor with ~HALF the pixel count of 4K. So again unless I'm somehow wrong about the monitor you list in your signature you can't compare your experience with Orkan or anyone running 4K. This thread had only positive posts before you decided to argue, or whatever you call it, with orkan. I don't understand why you felt the need to come into this thread and insert your opinions. Didn't your mom teach you to keep your mouth shut if you don't have anything nice to say. This is exactly what op refers to in later post. I also have been a PC Gaming Enthusiast since 1991 and have watched the PC Gaming community change so many times, not once for the better IMHO. Now we have all these leeches trying to latch on and suck money out gamers any way they can think of. I'm glad PC Gaming has grown so much but it's not always for the better. Again unless you have the wrong monitor listed in your sig, then sir, you ARE speaking from lack of experience.
 
3840*1080=4,147,200 - Craptacular monitor
5120*1440=7,372,800‬ - Op Samsung c49RG90 monitor
3840*2160=8,294,400 - 4K monitor

Guess you've never heard of DSR where you can run whatever resolution you want. Maybe instead of trying to correct me you go do your homework?
 

DSR is just supersampling. It does NOT allow you run whatever resolution you want. It still outputs the same signal(same resolution/same pixel count) as without it. 
 
Your monitor still has the same number of pixels that I showed above. Half the pixels of a native 4K monitor. You can't argue about the number of pixels your monitor has. 
You're correct I did not know much about DSR before this. It's not something that ever had any appeal to me. 
I did say 3 separate times "correct me if I'm wrong" "unless I'm wrong" ..... 
There's nothing the OP said that is completely inaccurate. You're not gaming at 4K. Supersampling is not the same.

I'm not sure what else there is to learn. DSR is supersampling. It renders higher resolution images then down scales to lower resolution which is sent to the monitor.
You said it correctly this time, that you set any resolution scale. Not you can set any resolution you want.
The OP posted details and screen shots in this original post.
So why have you not included any details whatsoever? What resolution do you set for Red Dead and what scale do you set for DSR? Not just I did the same thing and got better results than you?

At end of the day your monitor still only has half the pixels of a 4K monitor.

 All he said was a 3080 is not enough to run Red Dead 2 with all settings maxed with the resolution he is using.

For the last time go read about it, and maybe more importantly UNDERSTAND what you're reading. Do it slowly if you have to and sound out the words.

3080 not enough to Run Red Dead 2 at those settings?  Ouch, it sounds like GTA5 all over again.  It's almost like Rockstar -UN-optimises their PC ports hehe

It's fast.
 

 
 
I mean... it's REALLY fast. If this isn't a "gaming" card, someone forgot to tell games. Prior to getting the EVGA 3090 FTW3 Ultra, I was running an EVGA 2080Ti. I have a Samsung CRG9 49" super ultra-wide monitor running 5120x1440 resolution. In Red Dead Online, I was running medium/low with sliders 1/4 or 1/2 at most... and at those settings was seeing 50-70fps. With the 3090, I have every single setting and every slider cranked as high as they will go. Full ultra. I'm seeing 70-120fps!!!! Some areas of the game are extremely punishing during certain hours. For instance, Strawberry, standing near the creek looking at the town during the night. It is an amazing sight that really shows off the beauty of this game. If someone starts throwing fire bottles right there at that moment, fps will dip into the low 50's. Those "ultra" lighting and particle quality settings are really punishing. Man they look amazing though. Up in the mountain tops where there's less going on, it's not uncommon to hit 110-120fps. Buttery smooth gameplay is a first for me with this title.
 
Bottom line: A 3080 is not enough to max Red Dead Online at this resolution with max settings. An overclocked 3090 can barely do it above 60fps all the time. Dropping water physics back to half slider, pushes that same scene in Strawberry back up into the 80fps+ range. Just running around in the great plains or heartlands during the sunlight hours nets FPS in the 80's and 90's.
 
It is an unbelievable experience. It's like an entirely new game. I'm a level 282... and the entire game has a feeling of being fresh. I want to go see everything all over again.

Info

 
I paid over $1600 for my 2080Ti, and I was happy with it until a year ago when I started playing Red Dead Online. That game crushed that card. Now, this 3090 crushes this game, and despite the to-my-door price of over $1900... I'm quite happy with my purchase.
