The prices are pretty nuts though - Bit of an increase over the 30 series range (Founders Edition) over the 40 series (Founders Edition)

Of course the Fenix and add-on scenery like airports are gonna drag the FPS down.  I expect Fenix + add-on airport (and other add-on scenery) in a complex urban area to reduce the FPS in the NVidia video by 30% probably.

It's probably still near 2x.  It's an apples to apples comparison.  If I have 30 fps with heavy addons I'll probably have close to 60 now (assuming I had a 3080 Ti) etc.

When I went from a 4790K to 12700K, and pretty much the same rest of the system I doubled and sometimes tripled my FPS.  (That was SU8 - SU9 dropped my perf - but I hear SU10 brings it back up).

Question. i have a 2080 Super now, will the 4000 series just plug & play where my 2080 is now or does it require more power?

 

Thanks,

Depends on your power supply.

The power requirements from Nvidia:

Table goes as follows: 4090 | 4080 (16GB) | 4080 (12GB) - Please note these are for the founder edition cards - Any other cards made by other companies such as ASUS may have the own requirements:

Most likely a lot more power and a 4.0 PCIe slot.

This is the real question... I'm wondering the same as I "only" got a 850w psu for my Feb 2022 build.  I don't plan on the 4090 but a 4080 sounds great.  But I may come up short on power requirements.  I did see a leaked article that showed the power consumption to be quite lower than initial tests.  This leak was from August of this year vs early May 2022 reports.

EDIT:  Oh it's already being reported of having a 450w TDP (for the 4090) - says requires 850w psu.  Then I'm good for the 4080 for sure.

set a power curve in msi afterburner and you wont ever get close to the GCP shown. my 3080 runs around 200/225w max and it would be well over 300 untuned. 

Who's taking pre-orders? Newegg isn't, Microcenter isn't. Let's go, I'm ready. I never had the best card on the market and I'm ready.

It has just been announced:

RTX4090 at $1599 available from October 12.

RTX4080 at $849.

No, no!

RTX 4080 (16GB) Starting at S$2,030
RTX 4080 (12GB) Starting at S$1,520

And the 4090 will probably be around $2,500 !!!

I agree there.  I have a kill a watt unit and on previous builds under CPU stress test (and gpu tests) my entire system only needed about 450w when I ran a 750w psu.

I have a 1200 watt EVGA, and it's tempting to return this 3080 (have 9 days of return window left), but it looks like the 4080 will be overpriced, and maybe the 4070 won't be out for a few more months. I rarely fly in any really huge major cities, occasionally, but cannot justify spending over $1k for a video card when I don't need the extra FPS.

Is that a different form of currency?  The prices I saw were USD from the the CEOs mouth.

Yes, this is a in Singapore Dollars...  - note your link has en-sg in the link

The original is in USD and is correct.
