Shakes fist in anger* I'm refreshing as much as I can to grab the FE off bestbuy
No Strix GPUs have been shipped at all yet anywhere in the world from what I understand, only the TUF.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 review: a Titan in all but name
Digital Foundry review the Nvidia RTX 3090, the fastest consumer graphics card available. Game benchmarks, hardware bre…

15-16% performance increase over the 3080
Looking very good 🤷🏻‍♂️
Lol at that 480W mode though

ASUS GeForce RTX 3090 STRIX OC Review
The ASUS GeForce RTX 3090 STRIX OC is the fastest RTX 3090 we have tested today by quite the big margin. It also has a huge power limit adjustment range that maxes out at 480 W! We hance added a whole test run at 480 W to our review to see how much extra headroom RTX 3090 Ampere has left and...
That was an excellent review. He was absolutely brutal with NVidia though it seems like they deserved it.
Managed to order one from the Norwegian Nvidia store. The add to cart server seems to have completely shit the bed, so I used three browsers and used the network tab to monitor the POST to "add-to-cart" and retried when it inevitably failed. Eventually I got through. They seem to still be in stock fwiw.
Lol at 480w :D . Not much to gain on 3090 cards in terms of overclocking. Not worth it to run it at 480. And everyone went into panic mode and bought PSUs lol. Also not that great for board partners because they want to sell you those OC cards and you don't really get a good benefit for the increased price.Looking very good 🤷🏻‍♂️

Seems like it's the best to buy a 3080 with somewhat good OC and you are already close to the 3090.
People are stupid, buying 3090s for 2600+ euros on ebay. I can see someone buying a 3080 for 1k or 1.2k because that was the price of the 2080ti but going for more than 2k for a card that is only 10-15% faster? pff.
Nvidia order went from Pending to Processing. the pending charge is on my bank account, but i still dont have a confirmation email.
i dont feel comfortable.

so yeah I think I'll stick with the 2080 Ti until next year when it's easier to get a new card.
Don't think it was ever in stock at Best Buy. I've been refreshing Best Buy non-stop since NVIDIA's store only allows one card per customer and BB is the only other place that sells the FE.
Does anyone know if BB had any stock of the 3080 FE on its launch day?
Does a 3090 actually make a lot of sense for video editing? Wouldn't a 3080 give you the same improvements for encoding/decoding with just an about 10% loss in CUDA accelerated tasks? I would imagine that putting money towards things like PCI-E 4.0 storage, RAM and something like a Threadripper CPU would give you more noticable performance improvements. Curious if the tools you use are super VRAM hungry if you are not doing large 3D renders using a GPU renderer.
In no way telling you what to do or spend money on, just curious if programs like Premiere, After Effects and DaVinci Resolve are VRAM hungry.
So you're the one that took it. I had one in my cart and then poof. No longer available. :|
Is it for store pick up or delivery? Every time I tried, it said the 3090 is only available for store pickup, but no store had any.
Edit: I thought it was delivery but I looked at my order and I chose Ship to Store. Which is fine.
Was able to get a 3090 from EVGA this morning (went up at 6am for ELITE members), it took me 37 mins to get through. Saw the 10% benchmarks, but I'll be happy going from SLI 2080 Ti's (completely not worth it) to single card 3090.
I also watched Jarrod'sTech's video to make myself feel better lol

How beneficial is this card for VR though with the extra VRAM? Thinking it would make switching back and forth between steam VR, streaming, etc much faster. I also do a lot of baking with bakery in Unity.
The FE is definitely not a card for gaming over the 3080. The high-end 3090s such as the Strix OC do offer 20%+ improvements in some games, but now you're looking at an $1800 GPU vs $1500 GPU.
I did not know EVGA Elite membership was a thing despite buying a 2080ti from them and multiple Titans in the past. Just signed up for it.
Ya learn something new everyday.
6K RAW footage will eat up VRAM fast. Even 4K will max out a 2080ti/3080 if you stack effects or a warp stabilizer. For video editing, export times have long been irrelevant. The improvements 24gbs of VRAM brings while editing is a lot more valuable.
No problem, I really appreciate your reply.
My general rule is 20% is worth double the cost as it will pay for itself in client jobs. If I can add more affects and reduce render time I'll pay it. But I expected more of gap between the 3090 and 3080 in Da Vinci Resolve, which is the tool I'm working mostly in on production side. Seems like the extra VRAM isn't yielding a big enough delta right now.
DaVinci Resolve Studio - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 & 3090 Performance
DaVinci Resolve has long been known for how well it utilizes the power of your GPU, but will it benefit from the raw power of the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 10GB or RTX 3090 24GB video cards?

I have a pretty wide budget for upgrading my production rig I can effectively upgrade GPU, go PCIE 4.0 and CPU without issue as some work I have will effectively pay for it. But going with the 3080 and upgrading later is definitely an option.

Then I can see your reasoning, a $1500 GPU isn't really that expensive all things considered if you look at it for professional use, those 10-20% gains will pay for themselves over time and the extra VRAM will make it hold more value for professional usage for a way longer time than the current RTX 3080 as more workflows lean in to using the GPU.
I'd say go for it, waiting for a Quadro card or a potential 20gb 3080 Ti is probably not worth it compared to the 3090.
Anyone with an Nvidia order get a shipping confirmation yet? I gambled paying for overnight and it looks like I lost.
