GeForce RTX 3090 Reviews Reveal High Performance for High Price

"When we had our first experience with the GeForce RTX 3080, we were nothing short of impressed. Testing the GeForce RTX 3090 is yet another step up. But we're not sure if the 3090 is the better option though, as you'll need very stringent requirements in order for it to see a good performance benefit. Granted, and I have written this many times in the past with the Titans and the like, a graphics card like this is bound to run into bottlenecks much faster than your normal graphics cards. Three factors come into play here, CPU bottlenecks, low-resolution bottlenecks, and the actual game (API).

The GeForce RTX 3090 is the kind of product that needs to be free from all three aforementioned factors. Thus, you need to have a spicy processor that can keep up with the card, you need lovely GPU bound games preferably with DX12 ASYNC compute and, of course, if you are not gaming at the very least in Ultra HD, then why even bother, right? The flipside of the coin is that when you have these three musketeers applied and in effect, well, then there is no card faster than the 3090, trust me; it's a freakfest of performance, but granted, also bitter-sweet when weighing all factors in," reads the review.

"You might not be able to afford it, you might never buy it -- but if you've got the money and want the very best there is, there is no question on whether you'll buy the GeForce RTX 3090. This review is just underlining how f***ing incredible it is. From the moment you have the RTX 3090 Founders Edition in your hands, to when it's installed into your machine with its huge triple-slot design... you are in love. If you are looking to buy a huge new BFGD (Big Format Gaming Display) or any one of LG's kick ass 4K 120Hz capable OLED gaming TVs then you will want to pair it with the GeForce RTX 3090 Founders Edition," reads the review.

"More than ever before are people working from home in many different industries, that's just a fact of the world right now. Many of those people working from home are editors, designers, and modelers who also play games. Typically the Titan would come in as that between consumer and professional card, a bit less expensive than the Quadro line but carrying the higher VRAM capabilities and still being able to push the envelope as the absolute absurd top tier gaming card for those who are crazy enough to shell out for it. Well, the GeForce RTX 3090 is more along the lines of catering to that person but also doing so at a much lower price point than what they did the last go around [with Titan RTX - editorial note]," reads in a review.
