ASUS TUF GeForce RTX® 4090 OC Edition Gaming Graphics Card (PCIe 4.0 24GB GDDR6X HDMI 2.1a DisplayPort 1.4a)

The upgrade has been made from 3070 to 4090, the difference is great, and it works with high efficiency

If you're here, you probably already know precisely what the 4090 is and does. Key takeaways for this TUF variant are that it performs as advertised, is very large and runs relatively cool. Replaced a 10GB 3080, hesitantly, to take full advantage of the 5k+ resolution of a new VR headset. The 3080 just didn't have the stomach for those resolutions. This card pushes 3300x3300 (per eye!) without breaking a sweat in the racing sims and roomscale experiences I've thrown at it. It's almost comical just how much memory and how powerful this GPU has and is. Things to be aware of: - Power requirement. You need 600W dedicated purely to this card if you want to make full use of its potential. That includes 4 SEPARATE dedicated 8-pin PCIe connectors running from your ATX 2.0 PSU's VGA/PCIe/CPU outputs to the 12VHPWR connector that comes with the card. Alternatively, newer ATX 3.0 PSUs come with the 12VHPWR standard, I believe. I went ahead and upgraded to a 1000w gold PSU. 850w minimum spec made me nervous with OC'd CPU and all other cards/USB devices considered. - It's huge. It's "check your available internal case dimensions" levels of huge. Specifically length and height (amount of PCIe slots) are the likely largest concerns, but if you have a slim case, you need to check that too. - It's heavy. Thankfully it comes with a support that works very well. Once in place, there is no concern about the load being put on the PCIe slot. - It can get noisy when hot enough for the fans to start ramping up. There is definitely a little coil whine, but I run my case fans relatively high to begin with and am not noticing it any more than I did with my TUF 3080. Those who like dead-silent systems may want to look elsewhere, but I really think the issue is overblown unless my experience is the exception. - It runs surprisingly cool, even with low fan speed. My case is not spacious, but I have not seen a rise in CPU, motherboard or RAM temps compared to having the 3080 in there. - It can easily outpace single-core performance on a majority of CPUs out there. Beware that any CPU bottlenecks will become immediately evident. I've noticed walls that didn't exist before since the GPU can now handle all display demands at 60% power when unoptimized/single-core heavy sims hit the wall with my aging 10700k at 5ghz. I feel a bit ridiculous being a proponent of an $1,800 GPU, but times have changed. 5k+ resolution HMDs now exist. Triple screen 4k performance is a real thing for others. I would not consider buying this GPU if it weren't for a very specific need of mine, but it's good to know that GPU performance will never be a concern in the foreseeable future and I can focus on eventually updating to a new socket, CPU and DDR5 when it becomes necessary.

La compre por menos de 28 k (difícil de creer) con el DLSS en 4k consigues minimo 150 fps, warzone 4k llegas mas de 220 fps, MW3 igual más de 220 fps, he tenido consolas pero definitivamente nada comparado con este nivel, es mas barato invertir en una buena tarjeta grafica porque te va a durar mucho, es multiplataforma, no solo te sirve para jugar, si tienes la posibilidad vale cada centavo. Esta tarjeta grafica seria el equivalente a un Lamborghini.

If you are looking at a new GPU and have the space in your case for a 4090 this product will exceed your expectations as it has everything you could wish for… The looks, the ease of fitting, the power and a reliable name you can trust. Top marks for Asus.

I'm upgrading from a ASUS ROG Strix 1080ti so I have very little frame of reference for performance for a modern 30/40 series Nvidia gpu, but from the few benchmarks I've run and the gaming tests I've done so far this card is beastly. It's going to sound stupid, but basically since Skyrim was released my go to metric for raw performance has been can it run ultra-modded Skyrim smoothly ("ultra-modded" has changed a lot over the years so the metric stayed relevant for me). Yes Skyrim is a 12 year old game, but when you get enough texture mods combined with an ENB and such it can be quite demanding. With my standard ultra-modded install I was getting like 40fps fairly consistently on the 1080ti but there were still dips in certain areas, this card is locked at a rock solid 60fps (capped due to engine limitations) and it's barely breaking a sweat, highest usage I saw was 51% usage in the most demanding spot I know to test ingame (would occasionally cause a crash even on the 1080ti and the 1080ti was constantly pinned at 100% usage). I swear I've never had such a jump in performance from a single upgrade, granted I skipped 2 generations this time, but even still. Time to go do an obligatory Cyberpunk playthrough with settings cranked I guess. To be clear I bought this card specifically for its AI performance and VRAM for locally running large language models and stable diffusion, but now I'm geeking out over the raw speed of this card so I guess some gaming is in order. Specifically regarding the ASUS TUF branding, it's a solid well built card. The metal shroud gives the card a lot of rigidity and the recessed 12vhpwr plug is nice for helping to avoid putting strain on the connector which has been a problem with other cards. This card is absolutely massive, so build accordingly. Their little support bracket to keep the card from sagging is a high quality machined aluminum part (although it barely fit above the tower basement in my Enthoo Evolv case even at its lowest setting). Thermals have been good so far, haven't seen it top 70 C yet at stock speeds. At stock the card pulls about 500W peak so make sure you have a beefy PSU. I'll be the first to say that if you're running a 1440p monitor (or lower) this card is absolutely overkill (probably my next upgrade) for gaming in basically any title, if you know you need this power for something specific, pick it up, but if not there are much better price/performance options.
