If the whole 40 series card thing is real people will have to get a whole new power supply with their new card. The 4090 pulls a whopping 900 watts!!!

it's rumored to be 450W - https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-4090.c3889
Peak power will easily reach 900W.
And your PSU, if not chinkshit, is designed to absorb bursts. 4090 will never draw 900W continuously.
Not sure, what makes a good PSU is its safety features, tripping faster than your chinkshit greybox that will allow you to draw 120% until a cap pops.
That's why novideo is moving to the next gen PCIe connector, so the GPU can limit those bursts according to the PSU and prevent anything bad to happen.
>Not sure, what makes a good PSU is its safety features
Most safety features are marketing, it's only been recently people are so obsessed with them to make themselves feel better.
An actually good PSU shouldn't have issues with transients and feel the need to trip.
Not if you are mining crypto 24/7. The RTX 4090 will probably have 250MH/s and will draw a massive amount of power even if it is undervolted.
>Not if you are mining crypto 24/7
Not my problem.
by buying a 1500W PSU.
what are you, special?
capitalism at its finest. have fun paying the electricy bill for a 900w gpu lmao
The 3000 and 4000 series are only useful for industrial applications and mining crypto. That is it. RTX 3080s are somewhat cheap and you can make ROI in less than a year.
the equivalent of running a hair dryer 24/7 just to play minecraft
I have a 750w psu and it runs a 5900x and 3080 just fine.
I imagine worst case scenario, you'll need a 1000w psu to run a 4080
If you can afford a 4090, then you can probably afford a top of the line gucci psu.
That's AyyyMD, Intel has different requirements, especially if OCd...
I'm gonna get a 12 gen i9 in my laptop, alongside 128GB of DDR4 and a RTX 3080. Should I do it despite the huge draw?
Laptop GPUs are not the same as desktop ones. They are different chips with the same numbers because NVIDIA is a shady company. Laptop 3080 is GA104, the same as desktop 3060-3070Ti, and not GA102 like desktop 3080.
The laptop will be loud and hot, but if you want that then go for it.
Crypto mining is about optimizing MH/s and power. Desktop GPUs are designed to maximize FPS by sacrificing efficiency. No competent miner runs even close to the max TDP.
A good PSU will absorb the spikes of a GPU and trip on continuous overload. A chinkshit one will explode even on spikes like the Gigabyte one.
moms gonna FREAK when she see's the electric bill
is the rx 7800 xt or whatever gonna be like that as well
Frick that's huge, looks like it'll rip my mobo in half.
It is truly the BBC of GPUs.
what case do i get for this thing?
>willing to pay over $1500+ for a GPU
>somehow has a shit fit over a $150-300PSU and a small increase to your power bill y2y unless you're some moronic NEET running at max power 24/7
I can already guarantee most cases won't fit this fat frick.
Realistically how much would it cost to run a 3090 all day long at full blast in a state like Massachusetts?
