GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming OC 24G Graphics Card, 3X WINDFORCE Fans, 24GB 384-bit GDDR6X, GV-N4090GAMING OC-24GD Video Card

𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: Amazing. Well-built. Less offensively priced than much of the competition. Not loud, and despite a bit of coil whine during certain loading screens, it hasn't been noticeable while playing. As someone who wanted to avoid coil whine and bought this card for that reason, I'm fine with it. It's a real, solid 4090 for not much above MSRP, with performance and silent BIOS modes. -------------------------------------------------- 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: I'm currently running this in my nearly 4-year old build, with the intention of upgrading everything else around the card after a year or so of saving. Even on an i9 9900k, it offers massive gains over my 2080 ti in any scenario where I'm not limited by my CPU or 3200mhz ram speed. For example, Hogwarts Legacy doesn't see too much improvement (it's notoriously taxing on your whole system and not the most optimized), but Horizon Zero Dawn at native 1440p Ultra went from 90fps on an RTX 2080 ti to 155fps (monitor cap) on the 4090. It's still only around 75% GPU usage, 63C and drawing roughly the same power as my 2080 ti at around 250W. That's over a 70% uplift for 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, a dozen degrees cooler, and a lot quieter due to much lower fan speed. Aside from obviously flourishing at 4k, this card could do a lot more than that at 1440p with a cutting-edge CPU, RAM and a 240hz monitor. It is a BEAST, and with 24GB of VRAM it may actually stay powerful for a few years. Still, let's be real; the 4090 is overpriced and I can't give it good marks for value even though Gigabyte is being really cool here compared to the competition. I stand strong in my belief that the whole pricing structure of the 40-series is one tier too high; the FE should retail around $1249-$1299, which would put this one around $1349-$1399. Still, this isn't Gigabyte's fault, it's Nvidia all the way, and I appreciate Gigabyte offering this for a comparatively "reasonable" price. If you decided (like I did) that the 4090 is the only card that makes sense to buy for longevity's sake—or you simply want the best—this is a great option.

Performance is exactly what we'd expect from an RTX 4090

Hice upgrade de mi pc y subí de una 2080 súper a esta 4090 y la verdad no me arrepiento. Antes tenía que bajar los settings al mínimo en juegos competitivos para tener framerates estables pero ahora puedo tener lo mejor de dos mundos (fps y calidad de juego). Además en juegos de historia como Cyberpunk puedo subir todo a Extreme y la tarjeta como si nada. Si quieres lo mejor de lo mejor, esta es la opción. Esta tarjeta es un monstruo físicamente, ocupa 3 slots en el gabinete y trae su kit para nivelarla que ayuda bastante a que no se venza por el peso. Además el sistema RGB la neta se ve muy bien aquí, aunque me sacó un susto porque la configuración que tengo hace que no prendan los leds hasta que los ventiladores están en movimiento, y como a esta tarjeta le sobra enfriamiento, no prenden los ventiladores luego luego y por ende los rgbs se mantenían apagados, pensaba que estaban descompuestos o algo pero no. Me preocupaba un poco la polémica que ha habido acerca del cable de 12 pines que se quemaba pero estuve investigando y es cuestión de no doblarlo de la base del cable y asegurarse que está bien enchufado oyendo el click después de presionar fuertemente (Gamer’s Nexus tiene un video al respecto que pueden ver para guiarse) Estoy muy feliz con mi nueva tarjeta, fue una inversión fuerte pero vale la pena al poder jugar todo lo que quiera con los mejores settings.

After coming to terms with the enormous heft of this video-card I was impressed by the build quality, robustness, fan arrangement and the cooling system. The task of installing it in my Phanteks Enthoo Pro was a little challenging and involved removing the drive cages. This was the only way to get the card into the Asus ROG Apex Maximus z690. This motherboard has a strong PCIe slot and the card shows no evident sag. I will however add a support. The generational performance leap is truly astonishing and leaves my RTX 3090 in the rear view mirror. The card may not be overclocked by much but that doesn’t bother me in the way it might bother real hard-core enthusiasts. It runs exceptionally cool even under heavy benchmark loading (only once topping 70C) and is quiet too. My system is powered by a Corsair 1200 AXi PSU, now has an i9 13900K processor and in the heaviest of loads pull 740 watts peak but typically around 400. I have not had any issues with the 12vhpwr adaptor and have done regular thermal measurements that have been well within acceptable limits. I am truly impressed by this card, the first Gigabyte card I’ve owned, and certainly recommend it. I went with the first available card, not the one that I had first in mind, but am delighted by the result. I appreciated the 4-year warranty and ease of registration too.
