The RTX 3090 will be considered a low end card by 2030, it will probably become a budget card in 2023-2024

@@KhoaTran0720 nope more like 2025 or 2026 because its a flagship, even flagship cards from 3 years ago aren't considered budget. Like the 1080ti for example.

@@KhoaTran0720 with how technology progress seems to be going, i bet the 3090 will still be considered very powerful in 2024 and far from a simple budget card, just like how the 1080 is still a 1080p60 and High/Ultra graphics capable GPU 4 years later

@@TheFraps1 Its only holding on because Games have been Holding back as 2013 Consoles such as the Ps4/XOne exist and all games that have been made works on those Consoles, if Devs truly made games Specifically for the RTX 3090 for example even the Ps5/Xbox Series X wouldn't be able to handle the Levels of fidelity that the RTX 3090 could do, its sad because we never truly see the capabilities of GPU's as Consoles exist.

@@TheFraps1 they will try to sell 8K and fully raytraced games next-gen, 3090 will lag then. 3090 will be the 4K60 card.

@@RandomGaminginHD I love u x

Brilliant 🥳

It isn't?

To be honest this card gives most new cards a run for their money in terms of looks

I mean, looks like it can trade blows and win against a card like my 1070ti.. The stoppage of dual cards support was a huge letdown for me

exactly the same!

I was in high school when this was released. I knew it was shit even back then

Man I still love my gtx 690’s sadly 1 is semi broken but the other one still works fine. It is always fun to come across a new game with sli support.

@@bb2ridder757 what's wrong with the semi broken one?

Hey Kripsy!

I was always wanting a 690, even if it was just for the beast look it has and still a pokey old thing despite it long abandoned by nVidia.

EYYYYYYYYY el KRRRYYYZZZZPPPPO fancy meeting you here

I thought about doing that. I had found 2 R9 390X2 8GB cards for $250 total, so that would be 4x 390 8GB cards for $250 and performance way above 2080ti levels in a common board with 2 16x slots. My personal build though is 4x Fury (which really only works on a Threadripper platform, which is what I have so it works great), but at one point I almost swapped them out for FIJI Pro duos (duel Fury on a PCB), but kind of pointless for gaming since Xfire only supports 4x GPU cores and not 8x (but dang those Pro DUO cards were insanely cheap!). It works great in most of my games, silky smooth 100 fps in Crysis 3 at 4k Ultra (compared to a choppy 45 fps on my Titan Xp), so its around 2x 2080ti SLI performance for just $500, but since it requires a Threadripper platform its nowhere near the value proposition of 2x duel GPU cards on a cheaper motherboard, but I use the threads so its not just gaming. Highest monthly electric bill I've ever had was under $40, so not bad, but I also don't game 24/7 (even still it would be a decade before 2x 2080ti ever paid for themselves).

@@jakegarrett8109 would you describe your pc as “furious” 😉

I don't think "illiterate" suits this sentence because illiterate means not capable of of read or write

I remember back in middle school the Apple 2e had a upgrade for ram. It was the cats weow as it made power up time 2 times quicker, or just over 1 min to power on the system, the monitor took longer to heat up and turn on. Oh how times have changed.

I had a 270X too! Nice card

@@MultiYippee Yes it was decent but suddenly stopped working one day

@@julianmajer116 Weird. I'm still using mine today.

Bought a 270x in middle school as well.

Thanks :)

I'm also wondering whether there's some kind of PCIe splitting going on that isn't supported on all boards

@@bengraham8833 that's exactly it. Many boards don't support PLX chips properly, which is the PCIe splitter chip on the card.

Not really, it does draw the standard 75W from the slot. However, the card does break the PCIe standard and draws around 215W from each 8 pin cable (Which is only supposed to give 150W per cable), which means that you need a really good PSU to run one of them, and to run two, you will need something like a good quality crypto mining PSU that can give full power to 6x8-pin cables, they are pretty power hungry pieces of hardware.

HUGE ANIME BREASTS

@@KokoroKatsura ahh i found the cultured section.

Exactly, I was building my first PC back then watching LTT and Techquickie and then I saw this monster of a GPU 😀 back then it looked like this is going to be a new era of graphics cards - the best chips availible, put 2/3/4 of them on a single card possibly causing a nuclear meltdown 🤣🤣

I wanted one as my solution for Crossfire in a Mini ITX case. Ambitious idea, but very expensive.

I had a few passwords back in the day go like: "something"295x2 😀

That would be sick!

I saw a briefcase gaming PC on reddit a few days ago, so i imagine that it's pretty much feasible.

@@staz3014 its definitely feasible depending on what kind of performance you're seeking. Low and mid tier builds are easy enough. Higher end stuff is harder due to the power and thermal limits.

2012-2017 were the dark days of AMD. Small market share, inefficient cards, obsolete furys, shitty ass CPUs, poor drivers and support. AMD cards only really had status for value at this time.

Hope you didn't pay much cause that thing aged pretty badly. Draws a lot of power and the VRAM is pretty limited ^^'

Still a great GPU for 1080p if your PSU can handle it

@@Domstar97 Yeah, it's basically a GTX 1060 which is still enough for 1080p. It's just very powerhungry, that's all. A friend of mine got a cheap GTX 980 Ti and had to upgrade his PSU, basically paying extra just to be able to use it :D

Well I got the founders edition for 125 pounds and my psu is a 650 watt coler master 80 plus bronze

Yeah I definitely will, be interesting to see which future games might work, if any

I bought a hybrid 980ti back in the day when GPU's were all bought by cryptominers for a great deal. Its still being used in my cousin's PC to this day. Overclocked far beyond its stock clock and kept its cool, literally. At 1,512mhz on the core, it can run today's games at 2560x1080 just as well as my 5700XT at 3440x1440.

I'm 17

That makes you feel really old

That would be insane

The EVGA SuperNova 1300 is what I use for 4x Fury (275w TDP each) plus a Threadripper 1950x (which uses about 465w at 4.2 Ghz all core cinebench), and that PSU was like ~$135 and worked well stress testing it. Don't get the 2000w PSUs, most of those are fake chinese spec (I don't want to talk about how many PSUs I've fried at 50-80% rated load... they weren't even cheap), plus most of those are just 2x "1000w" Chinesium rated PSUs bolted together (which you can easily do yourself and use actual quality power supplies with a $2 "Add2PSU" device or just 2 wires) I actually use 2x of these SuperNova 1300 PSUs since its a Halloween build (duel 13's), and I don't want to rewire just to be safe if I'm wanting to use dry ice or LN2 on the CPU, but even one does fine (its somewhere over 1400w on the 12v rail output, around 1,700w at the wall, but these high end PSUs have specs below what they can actually do like my HX1200i does fine at 1350w output and still hits 90% efficiency with 1500w at the wall). So get one of these when they are on sale, they can handle a lot (if you need silence in your build and not just benching get the HX1200i as it doesn't even spin the fan below 700w)

Ooh and an fx9590

@@jakegarrett8109 I dare to disagree, Superflower manufactures legit 1300+ w PSUs, the brand is quite reputable among hardcore enthusiasts, but they aren't cheap. Jonny Guru, the guys who mainly specialize in testing and reviewing PSUs use this same GPU to stress test PSUs, because AMD should have gone with 3x 8-pin connectors, like hey did with Radeon Pro Duo (Fiji), because R9 295x2 draws more electricity than it is designed by the standard

@@nikityukvlad I didn't mention anything about the OEM/parent company SuperFlower (other companies buy those and slap their labels on them), I'm referring to don't buy generic crap regardless of ratings (since they are fake specs). But on that subject of name brand ones avoid Rosewill (Newegg's brand, but goodness I get tired of seeing those fry and they won't replace destroyed parts like my $250 SSD that fried because one of those died and took my SSD out with it). They aren't even cheaper than Corsair or EVGA, so they should be good but they just aren't

Yeah they’ve held up really well

@@RandomGaminginHD sold this week my R9 280x matrix edition for 90€ and going to buy a R9 fury oc for 90€. 👍

@@Dakhanavar99 Haha, nice hustle and free upgrade! I have 4x Fury in my build, mind blowing fast and good price. You'll like that upgrade!

@@jakegarrett8109 i hope so mate. Since its for playing only at 1080p and fps only i think will do the job well done! 😁

@@Dakhanavar99 It should do fine for that. I will note that if you upgrade your monitor your Fury will hold onto fps well, it does much better fps scaling at higher resolutions like 1440p and 4k, (like an RX 480 will beat it at 1080p, but at 4k the Fury takes a decent lead). You'll find that Fiji is weird (like even at fixed frequencies changing voltage will change performance even when its stable), there's a lot of weird quirks to it if you get into serious overclocking with them, but otherwise leave it alone besides maybe dropping the Vcore some (it varies per card, but if you leave it stock you might start with shaving 50mV off and keep lowering until unstable and that will save some on power)

Agree. Imagine if we had sli and crossfire supported today. We could get ray tracing with two gpus and it would be amazing and improve the frame rates
