And I am watching both of you. LoL I will be getting the Evga 3090 soon....

I am wondering since the 3090 was such a waste of money why is everyone still getting one ?
Plus reviews about AMD stuff i just don't get it ,assuming they want everyone to run AMD

As far as AMD goes ....I'm Intel all the way.
So why did YOU get one....

I actually had my heart set on one because of the VRAM

I don't know if you remember i complained about the RTX20 series not having enough Vram while my 1080ti gave me enough to play at settings i wanted which i find really sad for a supposedly faster card which the 1080ti pretty much was 3-7 frames behind on average

I only bought that 2080 super in hopes of getting a 3080 by trading it in and save some cash but given the chance to grab one i did so there it is

Your reasons are much better than mine Tommy, as I want it only for benching

I'm on a ultrawide and i want as much as i can get out of this old monitor it still makes a GPU work and people forget max setting on a 3440x 1440 is a lot to ask for especially everything turned up

New

3DMark DirectX Raytracing feature test.

Fixed in 3DMark Night Raid

Fixed white screen appearing before the loading screen.
Fixed illumination artifacts during the test.
Fixed a rare issue that could cause a crash.
Fixed a rare crash on Arm devices.

That's why i did that run before i couldn't get more than 20025 now it's 20225 or more don't remember ha

I got the 3090 for myself and the 3080 for the wife. Im running a 49 odyssey G9 and a 4k LG 120hz 55 inch 1ms tv when we play multiplayer games so figured the 3090 would be the best route to take.

Still need to OC my 10900k.. my first test was only at 5.1 all cores. The only thing on overclocking that i have never done before is RAM.. If anyone has any advice on how to go about it.. Im running a Maximus XII APEX board with gskill 16x2 3200mhz CL16-18-18-38.
