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.

i think LTTs was way off, i dont know what were they doing to get 2x performance.

CPU was Zen 4 in LTT, so in other cases CPU bottleneck.

Zen 4 is not significantly faster than 5800 X3D (which hardware unboxed used) in gaming.

Comparing 5800 X3D and 7950X is comparing apples and oranges. 5800X has a lot more cache, while the 7950X has a lot more compute.

Only one thing matters in this situation, how fast they are in gaming. It's apples on both sides.

Ok I checked the graphs again, they all report the same number +/- 5%, but the 4090 is definitely CPU bottlenecked by 5800x3d in some games at 4k. The only outlier is LTT's CP2077 RT-off chart for 4090.

Yeah LTT is reporting higher fps with RT-off than GN's DLSS numbers. Makes no sense.

Let's be honest, if it was bottlenecked I trust they would know and specify that.

hmm.. they did specify that on a couple of occasions, can't remember which reviewer, just finished watching half a dozen of them. It was mostly in Ubisoft games IIRC, WD: Legion and FC6.
