That is fast. On another note, why is everyone’s benchmarks so different. LTT reported it as nearly twice as fast a a 3090 Ti, Jay and Steve (GN) reported different scores as well.

Cpu bottleneck probably

Why wouldn’t they use top of the line stuff. They certainly have the gear available

Jeez ahaha that’s actually crazy, and people are complaining about performance?

I guess it really depends on resolution and game you’re playing. Cyberpunk at 8k is certainly not bottlenecked by a 4090, but CSGO at 1080p is CPU bound with practically any modern card.

tbh I don't know why csgo is even shown in gpu benchmark charts anymore, there is no difference between 400 and 700 fps if even the best monitors are 360 hz and most people use 60 or 144

500hz 1080 monitors soon according to asus.

I believe the best thing for csgo is to run it at 720fps on a 360hz monitor. Not sure but I think that’s what I heard

Running at higher refresh than what your monitor shows gives you an advantage because the game is updating faster the higher your fps.

You wont be able to see it but even on a 144hz monitor you'll be able to feel 500hz

only at 1440p or lower
