4090 is BY FAR the most expensive card i've owned, real crazy.
but ,anything less than a 4090 for me at this point is peasant territory.
like, if you`re not playing cyberpunk 2077 @4K ultra 70-90fps are you even playing it? (kidding but you get my point)
so anyways, for 30-40% more...
350$ for 18H shifts and 24/7 availability for a skilled worker? do people actually agree to this? i it was China or India , ok i guess , but for an expensive country like Japan ? crazy.
Just checked my last run (from 6/23) against what OP posted , good to know i`m pretty much on par with what others are getting
Overall - 28795
GPU - 36427

I actually noticed it , was watching some video and the whole browser window felt slow to a crawl . thought maybe a memory leak so i just restart , did help
real sad tactic youtube, real sad
Really anyone surprised ? this is the exact same story as as other GPU since 20 series.
either buy after launch or wait for next gen , anything else paying scalper prices or buying older gen.
So you are implying 4090 is good value? my wallet begs to differ.
I`d agree its the only GPU that makes some sense , but that just NVidia upselling us by making the others so poorly valued
I`m waiting for benchmarks to be sure, but i was planning on a 3D Cache zen 4 for quite some time , 7800X3D looks like my next CPU (currently running a 5800X which i will hand down to my kid )
We used to get montherboards without on board sound,lan,raid
What would a normal user need to add beside GPU?
at most more advanced users will add a raid controller or 10gbit lan maybe for specific uses.
audiophiles would prefer usb DAC anyways , and SLI is dead .
one extra slot is max i might...
probably more likely a 3-phase setup that is more common in homes today ( used today in most central AC units,induction stoves, EV Home Charging station etc.)
