I have the old one sitting right here. 360MM, but it was 119.99 and not 89.99. 😄

88%? Damn that's high!

Just looking at Rift Breaker benchmark explains that it's done wrong as some important settings do not match nor does the windows version...

I'm running it again now stock. Lets see how much of a difference there is.🙂 Edit: Stock Over clocked to like 3000/1500(12000)

No problem. Sorry it took so long though. Also to add I will need to rerun it as I think that is over clocked.

No, I'm not keeping this card. No way I'm going to run a 4090 while the 4090 TI is lurking (Although I have my warranty which allows for me to get all my money back later down the line. Minus the warranty part.). And still waiting to see about surpassing the 600W PSU limit. Is that limit written into the 40 series cards? So that if you try to by pass using the 600W cable with just using 4 PCIE cables, will it allow for more watts. Still a few variables floating about before making a judgment purchase. The 3090 runs all my games just fine so no need to jump on the early adoption of a new card.🙂 No, that is not art eraser, but instead it's just insulation tape. It's crazy humid here so the condensation is REAL! Edit: Yep, I'm out of watts.....😭

Here is my bend. That is kind of the purpose though.... It's suppose to be GPU only. Plenty of other benchmarks that use cpu, memory and optimizations to improve ones score. And some of these benchmarks one does not want to wait for 5 minutes for it to finish. 🤣 It actually pushed it to the max though.... Although this seems to be an Intel bench though. And Windows 10 seems to be on top. 🙂

I like having the single cable as well, but man that bend angle is murder though!😂

Same, I had no issues, but forgot about the small black o-rings. I had to order more then fit them in place, But then found out you don't even have to take that part apart either. You leave the 2 hex screws in place and it comes apart with the plexiglass.🤦‍♂️😄

Indeed!

And you had no issue with the 3 O rings?

I don't know...the competition seems pretty tough at the top.😀 I only grabbed this because it was there, but if I had a choice it would have been different. With that being said I do like how it looks though, even with it's size and lighting. The lighting is neither over bearing nor displeasing to the eyes and the soft edges are nice. As to performance, these 4090's are definitely on a whole new level. I had to run a few test twice just to be sure that it was actually right. It's been a while since we had this type of turn around. No worries, it's like that sometimes. 🙂

Buggy benchmark? I'm not running my cpu flat out, just doing some testing of this card first.

I'm resetting driver and settings and rerunning it again. Edit: I mean stock. Edit: No go. Still low numbers. I did manage to hit 37900 on GPU....once. LOL Edit: Edit: https://www.3dmark.com/compare/spy/31366505/spy/31363576

Houston.....errr, ah, California. We have a problem! It would seem the 4090 does not like Windows 10. First stock run fans on stock.

Damn, I fell asleep waiting on a bench to run....🤣

In reality, that is how it should have always been. No way a XX90 should be paced by a XX80 card. So as to your other question....so far it seems like 465W is max.

That boils down to the person working that day.... You can plan and plan and plan and still not come out a winner in the end though....

Sure, i'll try to run it in a bit. I only called it that because you said Zotac was trash. lol @Papusan I have no intentions on keep this card. I went to Microcenter to pick up an order fo my client and asked if they had any cards left and they said they had 2. And 1 guy had one of them in his hand looking at it. I was like....Okay let me get the other one. This was at about 8:30AM and Microcenter opened at 6AM. 1 minute later 3 people came up asking about cards, but they were sold out. Max Fans https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/80836154 PS: But I am keeping that PSU though. I haven't taken it out of the box yet, but at some point I will.

This is with adding the max, 110% form 100% No change in clocks right now. 🤣

And here is the reality. Using my bloated gaming version of Windows 11 with "all" updates and patches and what ever else they do in the background. Fans on stock and nothing else done. Stock Run Out the box. 3rd on the 3dmark for the time being. (12900K) @Papusan It literally reminds me of a dam Carnival Cruise Ship. 😂

About to see what my "temp" "trash" card is going to do...
