3080 + 3090 FE arrived this afternoon, some immediate testing on those coming up next!

[atSLASHY]

this man has 50% of the entire 3090 stock

[Leonsimages]

Out of all of the 30909 reviews, I watch OT's review first, because he deserves it :D

[Bulletexe]

When can we expect Ncase m1 build with 3080?

[jagz]

for rendering I would personally take a 3090 despite the price doubling, the RAM bottleneck of 10gig of the 3080 will force me to spend a lot extra time optimising my scenes ( currently using x2 1080ti 11Gig), the extra 14 Gigs is going to be a total game changer for me, it's my main reason for buying, mine arrives today! so pumped!

[lachyyates]

I still don't understand how you don't have a cool milli subs. you are too good at this my man.

[whippstar]

Can’t wait to see a ITX build with these cards

This is the most relevant review for me as a content creator and "half" gamer.. 3080 are the sweetest spot to put on your PC for the next 2 to 3 years.

That's cool, but personally I can't wait for the 3070 review! Especially mini 3070.

[matthieuzglurg]

I don't know about you.

But the thing that hyped me in the first few seconds of this videos wasn't the RTX 3090...

but the RTX 3080 FE in the background, SFF testing coming guys !

To this day I am still satisfied with my 3080, I bought it 2 months after launch, and have had it since.
The performance at 1440p is extraordinary, and even at 4K in some titles.

I probably won't upgrade until the 50xx series is being released.

[SpacedudeGFX]

Nice looking cards. Wondering when they will be released for humans.

[theminigunner]

Thank you for bench testing the msi gaming x models!

[ragemydream]

Another great analysis. I can't wait until I get my 3080 arrives ---- in 6 months time.

[Mathreal.Schramm]

U talked about 2x 3080, but as far as I know sli is only available on the 3090 this time

[Vervaticus]

Your videos are so clean man, you deserve a bigger audience imo.

[GarethPaxton]

I loved the way Ali slung that 3090 FE from below - I had a little "yasss!" moment to myself.

[sredna]

Wdym "you're better off with two 3080's" ?? You can't run 3080's SLI

[mabizu]

I love your Videos, you can feel the effort you put in! Sadly still not accustomed to the new Logo and Intro, but time will tell. I watched your video a bit to late my 3090 already on its way, was on fomo mode!

I think you really did a great job with this, and I think you're spot on in regards to the market for this card. I completely expected only a 10-15% rasterization performance improvement for this card, and I've said before how the 8k claims were more a tech-demo of HDMI 2.1 and DLSS2.0 than a real demo of the 3090's performance itself. Nvidia made a clear shout out to streamers and machinima artists and whatnot during the announcement for a reason. I think the 3090 is squarely aimed at content creators who primarily make content around gaming. They want a GeForce level card with "Ti" performance, but they need the VRAM of a Titan. The 3090 perfectly fills that gap. This is a card for game streamers and other gaming content creators, and in that respect, I think the $1499 price tag is a bargain when you look at the alternatives in the Titan and Quadro lines that have comparable VRAM. For the rest of us, the 3080 is the card to get.
