$2K? I'm definitely not in that league, but then I don't do the kind of work that justifies a card like that.

I saw you‘re the first user using a Ultra 285k instead of a AMD processor. Since I am more interested in 3D rendering and video editing I am aksing you, if you regret buying the Intel instead of the AMD. I am also playing games and the Intel didn‘t have any great benchmarks. What do you think?
For information: I am still using my 9 year old PC with i7 6700k and gtx 1080. It‘s working fine but it struggles with Davinci Resolve Effects, Grading etc.

My 2080TI is still holding up 5 years later! Gonna go for a laptop with the new 5080 card for my studies instead of upgrading my desktop. Asus ROG Zypherus G16

Hey @matthewmoniz I think there is a math error on the benchmark numbers. For example, the Black Myth: Wukong benchmark at 4:50 says that 49fps is 27% more than 37fps. But 49fps is actually a 32.4% increase over 37fps (37*1.324=49). There were similar math errors throughout the benchmarks.

The improvement is relative to the original number. a 27% increase over 37fps would be 47fps, not 49fps. Or, to make it simpler, 15 is a 50% increase over 10.

Gamers nowadays are only worried for the FPS instead of enjoying the game itself and the companies are filling that void. Fantastic performance though.

Which software you use for editing your video??

[cinqo]

Why did Apple's M4 MAX did so well and outperformed the RTX5090 and 9 285K? Any explanation please? Could it be said that for PHOTO EDITING an M4 MAX is faster/better than even that expensive RTX5090 + 9 285K combo? How come? Thanks!

[ImmortaleVALO]

As your Titles says. Fake Frames = Fake Perfomance. The actual RAW Perfomance of the 5090 ist not really that much of a Different. Its not even noticeable in most scenarios.

[TrusteftTech]

Thanks for the video. I am a bit dizzy so did I miss the part of power consumption other than the TDP? Temps? If I didn't, I am guessing that part is still under non disclosure.

I think it looks good. Thanks again.

Why is photoshop so optimized for m4 max?

[Tigerex]

Apple bandwidth is about have what they say because it's shared between the CPU and GPU the GPU never gets all the bandwidth, unless someone has hacked it
S9 about 500MB per second top for the low power ddr5 ram which is not real GDR 6 or 7 video ram

[hectorohh]

This is exactly why I am building a new PC and I am glad that someone is covering these topics.

I agree with folks saying AI and software magic + hardware improvements are the best option for computer graphics moving forward. I think if we rely purely on hardware upgrades we're going to continue to be bottlenecked and see even less gains out of future chips. I'd like to see continued improvements to DLSS, frame gen, and raytracing on top of hardware improvements. Rather than just trying to brute force frames through rasterized rendering.

I'm hoping for future generations, Nvidia is able to tackle the latency that frame generation adds as well as improving image quality.

Thank you very much, Mathew. The information you provided regarding the M4 Max was invaluable.

In light of your expertise, I would appreciate your recommendation on whether to purchase an RTX 5090 laptop or an M4 Max for professional 3D Blender work. Your guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

[JamesDude]

And also there's apparently talk that Multi frame Gen may even be coming to earlier generations, which I hope is true

[lukabosnjak]

I think that there's real possibility for the upcoming M4 ultra/extreme to have more raw power in some cases, maby even in games if there's no RT...
Imho X86 really is reaching the limits

[alimzazaz]

The card so fake the fake frames replaced frames in this review to show positive review.

I dont buy it, literally

[ashyouknow]

So 5090 is a decent upgrade over the 4090 even without all the Frame Gen bs.

[DemetriusZhomir]

I don't care if frames are AI generated. If it feels & plays better than without it — that's awesome. I think upscaling technologies are great. And in the future, we'll be playing fully on-the-fly generated games.

I wonder if I should camp outside Best Buy again.
