As the saying goes.....
IF you have to ask you cant afford it!!!
No idea tbh, but its more expensive then before Jan 1st. Shudder to think what I would have paid for the 3090 now!
3090 AIB cards come in to stock on Amazon.co.uk frequently for about €1600 - €1700 with Irish VAT paid. Did you save much on that?0 -

I was looking to upgrade? Glad i missed out to be honest . Probably wait for the next battlefield game that i know I will play for years before i upgrade.
Well up until Sept I had a 10yr old rig that was on its last legs. I upgraded for a few reasons, My rig was so old it needed it but I had no intention of spending so much. I edit alot of 4K video when out on the motorbike with the GoPro and with the 3900x it eats through it.
When I am gaming I stream it alot of the times, and I love the Flight sim games and FS2020 is just to good not to be played as best it can.
Wanted a 3700x and a 2080ti originally and the RTX series was dropping the week after I was building so I waited and could not get an AMD 6000 series or nVidia 30 series for love nor money.
Ended up with a 3900x and a 3090
Then when I got my 3090 I had already bought the 27LG850GL (anticipating the 3080 or 6800xt) which is a super monitor but not pushing the 3090 so I sold that and bought the AW3821DW.0 -

yeah, Isn't Quadro mainly a productivity card that might support some gaming but not excellently. Just like the opposite could be said for the RTX 3090. The 3090 is not truly a productivity card even if they are touting it like such because it can Outperform other gaming cards on such tasks and therefore is AMAZING...lol..Its a gaming card. I would like to see comparisons tests (Q vs 3090) on both gaming and productivity tasks. I think Q will lose gaming and 3090 will lose on productivity when stacked against each other. I could be wrong.

It depends on the software. Some software has features that the quadro drivers handle significantly better. It also has error checking which is important for engineers who need precision for designs.
For most standard rendering and video editing tasks the 3090 is a great workstation card.0 -

Haven't watched TechYesCity in a while but this video was a bit sobering.
Guess I have to take back what I said about crypto
True true and but possibly another version of what can happen is the market can become flooded with cards. Producers making more cards than ever before and if crypto-currencies taking a dive and loose value then many hobby cryptominers will drop their graphics cards like rotten stinky fish and saturate the secondhand market with relatively new cards. then the price will drop accordingly. Uncertain times. However its clear graphics cards will become more expensive for Americans from today. They will now pay 21% tax on certain Chinese electrical goods among some other products as the political muscle flexing continues between America and China. They will basically pay what we already pay so it will not effect us directly. It would be great if they could come out with a card just superior at cryptomining and really bad at games, so miners left the gaming cards alone. In a perfect world....:)0 -
