More fuel for the 4090ti fire.... "However, Kopite is now sure that there won’t be a new TITAN with such specs. What he referred to before as “The Beast” might end up with slightly altered memory specifications as RTX 4090 Ti. The Ti variant is reportedly not canceled, and it may still happen in the future, he adds." https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-titan-ada-is-reportedly-not-planned

That would rock. Even more reason to wait and see if we can break free of the cookie cutter PCBs that seem to dominate most of the models outside of VRMs.

Every time I see a Strix 4090 video it grows on me more and more but that $2k price....

Yeah, I saw the video when it posted last night and didn't deem it worthy of posting. He does go out of his way to state if you're in to productivity of course the additional e-cores (and frequency) will be a big boost but his focus is on games and system optimizations thereof. I would have liked to have seen a CB23 run at least with vcore, package, heat , scores, frequency and all that good stuff we love here. 🙂 I took it as more of a "first look" like video and he is comparing his on site, heavily tweaked, fully optimized 12900k god bin chip he has had for nearly a year vs a new, off the shelf 13900k that he is testing remotely on a beta or early revision 13th gen bios. Still fun to watch though.

Nice, solid review of the MSI Suprim Liquid X 4090. Definitely my favorite along side the Neptune and FE.

I was just doing some testing the other night. 5120x1440 resolution on the Ultra wide which is less overall than 4k (7372800 vs 8294400 = ~13% less) but obviously 2x QHD. Memory runs rock solid at up to +1250 for D2D use. +1350 for benchmarking. +130 on clocks solid. +140-+150 for benching. Avg game clock = 2205. All stock BIOS. Testing on the stock BIOS with slides maxed I'm seeing ~540w pull. I have hit some Vxxx limiting so switching over to the performance BIOS would maybe help a bit. XOC is obviously useless (or near to it) in a Hybrid config. And yeah I'm still test driving this 49" monstrosity lol......

So far on eBay, sell through rate of 4090's is about 35-40% (versus near 100% in 2021 for scalped 3090's) and overall pricing on average is not far above MSRP after the initial day 1-2 rush (versus as the insane pricing of 2021). It took my Microcenters 3-4 days to sell out of their initial batch of 4090s. It is nowhere near like the Pandemic/Crypto days for scalpers. Expect pricing to normalize sooner than later. On the flip side, two KPE 3090ti's sold on eBay. One for new for $2900 and a used one for $2100 in the last few days.

If you're building from scratch, a build thread like @jaybee83 would be nice to see bro. 🙂

If you needed a large capacity drive AND you already have a loop in place why not? 🙂 Overkill? Probably, but ah well. 🙂

Nice find! That was my top pick out of the gate but would have to be imported. 😞 Steve over at Gamer's Nexus had one brand new sitting on his presentation desk while he was talking about Nvidia in general and the 4080 12GB fiasco. Hopefully he is going to do a full review and teardown:

LOL..... I like how in the comments this basically explains it all....

Pulling what? All intervals? Idle? Where does it start to scream?

Yep, that makes total sense. Unless AMD comes out with something competitive with the 4090, I expect to not see a TI variant for about a year during a mid cycle refresh. If AMD can bring the high heat, then I wouldn't be shocked to see it in Q1 or Q2 at the latest of 2023.

Nvidia was shook the last time around with Ampere vs RDNA2. They brought the heat this time around and left nothing on the table Ada. I was hoping AMD had mastered their chiplet approach to bring effectively 2x the performance as RDNA2 theoretically and really shake Nvidia up even more at least in pure rasterization. If AMD can only shake things up to let's say the 4080 16GB that leaves the 4090 to roam free and Nvidia to keep back the 4090ti for much longer as they have no reason to release it or scale down their expectations for Titan as previously tried and go full fat full FP on a Titan card with the ~18k core dies and enable SLI since there is no competition at the top for them.

That's just straight up beautiful bro. I've been using the same case for over a year now and lack of room is never an option. Only gripe I have is still I wish it was an inch deeper in the back (giggity) for a touch more wire management room but I'm dealing with 6x PCIe leads for my KPE 3090ti atm. 🙂

I'm pretty sure the cancelled Titan (at this moment) is different than the 4090ti. Still hilarious. 🙂 This was on Videocardz dated the 12th in regards to a 4090ti so it's in the works: https://videocardz.com/newz/according-to-the-rumor-nvidia-is-already-saving-ad102-gpus-for-geforce-rtx-4090-ti

Really the only flat out monster upgrade over a 3090 is a 4090 and that is a 1600+ proposition. 4080 12gb is a non starter and the 4080 16GB is a big ball of "meh" to me. The specter of a 4090ti w/ DP 2.0 has me curious too.

Bah, minor upgrade.....you won't see a difference at all....wasted money! 🤣 Congrats bro! That uplift is going to rock your world and then some!

Yeah the Gigabyte model extends it a bit further than an EVGA/MSI AIO Hybrid and uses a copper plate to cover all the vital hot spots but it isn't as expansive or well done as a true block. The 3090 variant had decent temps. Here is Dawid breaking the 3090ti variant down:

Ask and you shall receive (sorta) 🙂 https://videocardz.com/press-release/alphacool-releases-360mm-aio-kit-for-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4090-reference-gpus

The idea of spilling 500-600w of heat in my case does not excite me though. 🙂 I won't be doing that song and dance ever again.... At least the FE spits a large chunk of it out but I do remember feeling all that heat radiating from the rear side mem and the fins being very hot on my FE 3090.

I'm really liking the MSI Suprim Liquid X more and more.....

Definitely going to need either shunt or truly EVGA/Galax class unlocked BIOS to see where it starts to tap out....

LOL....it wouldn't matter if it was or not. You're going to just overcome anything and everything and extract wicked numbers out of it anyhow. We all know this.
