    I got a palit 4090 gamerock oc and its pretty good.
    Made 5 different UV profiles and the gpu operates at max efficiency.
    25W power consumption on idle (dual monitors) and 146W while gaming (tested with AC Valhalla at 1440p ultra + FSR quality + Mods + Reshade). Still at 141fps throughout the entire game(fps limiter at 141), basically the gpu is sleeping at 50% to 60% usage.
    It,s cool, quiet and powerful.
    OC wise (just a test): +1500 on memory clock gives another 10 to 20 fps, depending on the game.

A question I have is, for those who want a watercooled 4090 for their custom loop, and that just want a ''normal'' OC, which to choose? A good VRM one and then put a waterblock on it? Because the Inno ones look meh don't they? I've thought about the founders if available but I don't really know what to do.

    Good video a lot of points made in it are founded on non normalized tests though therefore a lot of the information is incorrect I will give an example hardware unboxed tests on the Msi gaming x trio for temperatures which this video used to rank the cooling solution was based off of non normalized fan speeds. The gaming x trio was only running at 1400 rpm for fan speed which was the lowest speed of all the cards compared to suggest this in turn portrays info as facts is irresponsible the facts are we need a normalized test with all cards running at same fan speed to see exactly what the performance/temps etc. are under equal load a lot of info in this video as well as others ranking cards is based on incorrect information because none of the tests are normalized fan speed which would affect clock speed and performance etc. we need a video with balance tests to actually have any correct ranking of cards.

    This video actually made me buy a premium 4090 (MSI Suprim X) otherwise I would have gone with a Zotac, purely on pricing. The fact this confirms the price difference is also down to superior hardware and build quality, perhaps justifies some of the price difference. Ultimately if you're penny pinching get any 4090 but if you have a choice :) this video helped a ton.

    Pretty pointless really. No matter what 4090 you get, you’re getting the 4090 experience. The 4090 was designed to use all 600watt from the getgo, and only last minute nvidia decided to lower it to 450watt. The decision was made so so late in the release program, that the aib’s didn’t have time to change the cards. Meaning all the 4090 regarldess of what 4090 you get will be more than adequite for 450watt and should all hit 600 watt if available no issue. That’s also said for the coolers, they’re all massivly overbuilt.

    You neglect the one predominant reason to either buy or not buy a 4090, which in this generation is very obviously COIL WHINE. All 4090 cards run perfectly fine at stock power limits and OC is never actually useful because you will simply drive up power draw to insane levels while gaining less than 2% FPS on average. At the same time, reducing PL and undervolting the cards to the maximum will only lose you roughly the same 2%. ALL the VRMs are perfectly capable of running the cards stable and ALL cooling solutions are perfectly fine (oversized to be honest) as well.
    On the other hand though, your top rated Strix as well as the still highly rated TUF have undeniably annoying coil whine which sounds like it comes directly from hell and can be heard more than one room away from your closed PC case. They are absolutely unbearable for watercooling for example due to the coil whine being louder than most mid-level fans at mid speeds. Surveys show this to be the case for literally ALL of the Strix / TUF models. You'd be absolutely lucky to find one that doesn't come with high levels of coil whine.
    Your least rated Zotac cards on the other hand are well known to be some of the most quiet cards with regards to coil whine. The Extreme AMP Airo which you only rate slightly higher is the absolute go-to-card for everyone who can't bear coil whine, known to show whine only an a small percentage of cards. The GB Gaming OC and other models above the Windforce come really close, too.

    Coil whine is so overlooked. I have seen great test results from ASUS but their coil whine is unbearable even at idle. If I’m browsing the web I’m not using a headset so coil whine is super important. All these GPU’s are very comparable in performance.

I have a 3080 Aorus Master (also a 4 slot card) that runs hotter and louder.

    I have the MSI 4090 Gaming Trio and the lack of a vapop chamber does not destroy the cooling performance. This is nonsense. With a continuous load of ~440W (like Metro Exodus EE 4K ultra RT without DLSS), the card does not exceed 67 degrees and 1500rpm. With a load of 300W the temperature goes below 60 degrees at 1000 rpm. Usually in 4K games 350-370W the temperature does not exceed 65 degrees with max. 1300rpm. The card is very quiet in all cases. I'm on performance bios. The hotspot is always 8-9 degrees above the GPU temperature. Memory max. 72C in 4K games. The cooler is huge and the card weighs 2.2kg. Is this cooling ruined? All data without UV.
    My previous MSI 3080 Ti Suprim X on performance bios reached 75 degrees on GPU and 86 degrees on memory in 4K . Following this line of reasoning its cooling is garbage.

I know this may sound like "I glory what is mine" but here Techpowerup did it right.

By the way you missed level noise of Trio on graph in the 8 minute. I assume the fans are stopped ;)

It may not be a top tier card according to this list but mine doesn't have hardly any coil whine and it does just fine for the price I paid.
    Also, I noticed stock it stays right around 2700 MHz using the stock Nvidia voltage setting of 1.050v which pulls right around 350w while gaming. What I did was used MSI Afterburner to undervolt and set my own custom voltage curve (ctrl+f with MSI Afterburner open) and now have it set to the same 2700 MHz but at a max 0.950v and it only pulls right around 250w while gaming.

      When I saw the Gigabyte Gaming OC with those RGB fans giving off a glow that can be seen through that huge heat sink I fell in love. A sort of subtle, sleeper looking card apart from it being massive and glowing with "power", lol.

But if you play games lets take an example in SOTTR: high overclock(1.1V,3000MHz, +1000mem- 480W, 65% fan speed, 74C, 129fps) and undervolt with overclock(0.096V, 2715Mhz, +700mem - 330W, 40%fan speed, 64C, 122fps), so 7fps(6%) difference it’s nothing compared with all that noise and heat.

    I have the msi Ventus 4090 oc due to its size as it’s no longer than my old 3080 & didn’t want to buy a new case, only needs 3 8pin power connectors as well which was a bonus & I’ve even managed to put 100mhz on the core with no issues. If you have a small case it’s well worth considering & you don’t have to miss out on 4090 performance.

As for for noise it’s no louder than my old 3080 gaming x, most importantly there is no coil whine. Only downside is no RGB not even the msi logo, I’ve just added a light bar to the inside of the support bracket.

    I actually got a 4090 ASUS TuF non OC and I’m super happy based on the tier selection. Im pairing my card with a Ryzen 7 5800x3D and I can run pretty much run anything on 4K settings at 120 fps and 1440p settings on 240 fps. I manually did an overclock on mine so I can boost the clocks speeds a little higher than the OC edition , not worth paying more for the OC edition when I can manually overclock and get better clock speeds and save some money at the same time. ASUS is always up there with the best of the best which makes me happy.

      TUF line is surprisingly good bang for buck (none really are when it comes to 4090 but still)
      I've been using a 3080 tuf for years (got it on release day) with 0 problems.
      For the 4090 the TUF and the MSI Suprim seem to be the best picks outside of maybe extreme overclocking.

    Dont forget - you have to also base decision on which FITS in your case assuming its not a full sized tower.
    But all these bigger numbers vs smaller numbers - the real world difference between all of these cards is marginal at best. These 4090’s all run close to the same level.
    Plus the OC potential ive read is about 1-3% which is pretty bad and pointless extra power.

    -- Buying end of this month. Leaning towards the TUF though I do have the money for the Strix. Just not going to do extreme overclocking. Just a little. And I think I can offset cooling with my case (13, 120mm fans Corsair 5000D) and a simple custom fan curve in Afterburner.
    I can't justify the Strix. But I'd be open if anyone would like to prove me wrong. If you agree with me, I'd like to hear that too.

Absolutely no issues with it though I did have to tinker with fan curves - factor preset was terrible IMO. As he notes I have no plans to OC it. Love the performance Im getting - CP2077 4K looks and runs flawlessly.

      4090 is a 4090. I think if anyone is looking for a 4090 if u dnt plan to oc your gpu then find a card that is close to msrp while users planning to get some marginal performance and cooling can fork out 200-300 more for more features and imo better quality usually with a metal frame or a lcd attached to the gpu

      Recently got a PNY 4090 as well. Managed to find an new/open box on Offer Up for $1200. It runs quiet no whine or anything, and I wasn't planning on overclocking anyway it's a freaking 4090 it runs everything great without messing with it. But those upper tier cards do look nice I'm not gonna lie, I mean just aesthetically speaking. The PNY is kinda fugly and it doesn't match my color scheme at all but at that price I didn't care.

    PNY XLR8 cooler is actually very good, and should be rated top tier.
    For 1-2c over 4090FE it runs ~300RPM slower,
    Giving 38.2db vs 45db founders edition using Toms Hardware methodology.
    I can confirm that even gaming the loudest thing in my computer is my HDD(silet fans, bequiet cpu cooler)

    • @askorczewski
      @askorczewski Год назад

      moreover, if you plan to watercool your whole PC, PNY XLR8 is the one, which uses the reference block from AlphaCool, with connectors in front/back of the block (not extending the high/size of the card). I'll give it a try. Btw. having 140fps in 4k I don't really need OC to get 10% more (so max currencies/voltage doesnt matter for me)... But it's always a matter of prios, of course.

    Did you see the _tomshardware_ January 19th review of the PNY 4090 XLR8 Verto?
    They claim it has a decent build quality, "great cooling and noise levels". They did take it apart to examine the board and later overclocked the core +180 MHz and the memory to a stable +1600 MHz getting a 6.4% performance boost at 4K for an extra 3W. That's not too shabby for a card that's priced at the cheapest end of the 4090 line up don't you reckon?

    • @OTechnology
      @OTechnology  Год назад +2

      The hardware is what it is. It is as it is in the tiers. That's basically almost nothing in terms of performance gain from the overclock, its because of the limitation in the power limit.
