i bought one from a failed crypto farmer 3 years ago for 600 bucks, can't believe the value i'm still getting out of it

damn I guess so
time really flies

The 24GB VRAM continues to pay off. I think it'll be a while before any game uses that much.

It will probably be limited by performance before any game uses that much.
The 24GB VRAM and good value used market price make it a good entry level AI card though.

aged like fine wine

I have a 3090 MSI for nearly 5 years now.
Finally started to give me sluggish FPS in some games. what should i replace it with? a 5070ti? a 5080?

I got a prebuilt with a 3080 back in 2020 when GPUs were impossible to get. Wish I had gotten the 3090, at the time it seemed like stupid overkill but I had no idea I was destined to become a full-time slopper. AAA games these days are dogshit and not worth the power expenditure to run them at high settings. But for genning 10 GB vram isn't bad. I can do various things while waiting for gens. It helps pass the time. When I upgrade it will definitely be more than 24GB

you should replace the UE5 goyslop "games" you are playing that run like shit on 5090s anyway

>>106467248
What games and which settings do you play at?

3090 aged like shit. it runs hot as hell. transient spikes like a mofo. slower than 6900xt/6950xt. its only saving grace is 24gb of vram but it has no use unless you do 30b models.

>it runs hot as hell.
What, so every 90 series?

>>106467756
4090 and 5090 is when they learned to cool the vram properly. 3090 and before all suffer from vram failure sooner or later because they pretty much run 100c.

>>106467085
"4090 5090,..." I don't like these names. They don't have same impact as 3090 (which is still the goat after all these years). After the 30 series, they should've rebranded.

>what is powerlimit

>>106467773
Learn to service your own shit? Replaced my thermal pads and the VRAM temps hover below 95C.

>>106467756
Nah, my 4090 runs at like 65C if it's going full blast at 450W and if it's not quite fully utilized it doesn't even hit 65C. I think those are very reasonable temps. I had a 3080 Ti in my main desktop before this card and I could hardly keep that thing under 75C without the fans going crazy, despite the lower power consumption. The cooler on the 4090 is in a new league entirely, it's very good without being insanely loud.

>>106468164
Don't worry, they'll hit 6090 in a year or 2.

>>106467085
have 3090Ti, I purchased a period correct maxxed out system.

The sound out is a bit quiet I think,.

Overall good card and Nvida forgot to turn of a few options

>>106467085
yeah yeah nvidia finewine yeah yeah great gpu yeah yeah never obsolete yeah yeah we know
