Reminds me the time when the RM5.2k 2080 Ti got price slash to RM2.5k...
because the 3070 is going to sell for RM2.4k

Right now the 3080 Ti dropped from RM7.4k (wtf) to RM6.4k and now RM4k ish...


That monitor isn't worth anywhere near RM1.3k, have to re-sell below half that price because Lazada is only selling it at RM800.
The 24" Samsung Odyssey G3 is a 1080p VA panel, not big enough to enjoy movie, pixel response too slow for competitive FPS. Good for gamers on a budget tho, and better than not giving anything.
Consider it a bundle price...

240fps is the way to go if you're already aiming at 144fps

Maybe not 360Hz, but quite doable with 240hz.
Exciting to see HUB measurements with Asus PG279QM, Gigabyte M28U, Gigabyte M27Q X and Alienware AW2721D pixel response time very close to the 240hz latency.

WTB 3090 RM2500

Looks like these cards will be undercut by a huge margin by the 40-series cards, one tier below them.

Thanks for the info. Watching the same Youtube vid, my 1080Ti doesn't do HW decode when switching to the 8k60 footage, only 4k60 and below.

Can use splitter?

I'm also planning to go from 1080 Ti to 4070. Looks like double the perf at around the same TDP for my 13L case.

One of my Silverstone SFX 450W stock GPU cable header melted on my 980Ti, probably low quality copper burned out like you said.

Yep, won't even pay RM3k for a new 3080Ti when a 4070 is on the horizon.

Also wait for ATX12VO 2.0 before I get a new CPU+Mobo with DDR5.

Yeah, it reaches the CPU bottleneck maybe because MS never plan for the sim to do upward of 120fps in the first place, in the demo they are hitting 135fps!
In fact, the game is CPU bottleneck even with current 3080, albeit without RTX. That's considering the game was maxing out at only 45fps on launch before Asobo fixed it.

DLSS3 will be welcome addition especially for the VR simmer as they will be rendering beyond 4k resolution. VR headset are already doing Motion Reprojection for duplicating frames to hit 90fps for the 90hz headset, but I bet Nvidia "Optical Flow Accelerator" method will yield better quality. I can see slight artifacts from their FS demo video, which is pretty good tbh.

I am quite certain you don't want "motion reprojection" for games like COD and Battlefield.

I think the price will drop, there is only so many Nvidia fan bois with deep pocket who wanted to upgrade every generation.
There are still a lot of Ampere in the market, new and used.

No amount of excuse can be justified for the hilariously short lifespan of the connector.

You mean the one time RM3.4k TUF 3080 10GB? That's just a limited run to cheat the price/perf benchmark in reviews. After that we only get the TUF OC version but the reviews are already published. Then the crypto boom happen and the rest is history.

4090 with stock cooler, probably won't fit in most SFF case.
With a custom loop, it definitely well can.
As for heat, just run the 4090 in "eco-mode" too, lower down its power limit. At the same wattage as a 3090 Ti, the 4090 will still be faster and won't saturate the smaller heatsink people can fit inside their SFF.

The laptop gamers had also been running their GPU as fast as their laptop cooling allow and not to the chip limit. Go small? just sacrifice a little bit of performance.

As for your aircond bill... probably need to run the PC outside of your room like LTT done lol.

I'm naive to speculate the eco-mode of the 4090 will bring down the power draw to 3090 Ti level.
It actually goes down to 1080Ti / 2080 Ti level, and still much faster than a 3090 Ti.
Totally usable inside a SFFPC.

Check out Optimum Tech's Youtube, he said it fits inside a T1 SFF case. The power connector may be in the way.

I have to check the URL again to see if it is not satire...

heard that those are scalpers, they're selling $2000 on eBay
