lol! That man is absolutely hilarious. I don't even know how he builds his props but someone hire him for Hollywood.

On a serious note, congrats to the 2 people who will one day be able to purchase the 4090 when it comes out!

-Signed, the 3 people with a 3090.

Make that four - treated myself to one for my 65th birthday on Friday.  What an awesome bit of kit!

The problem with these increasing TDPs is: how the hell to get the heat out of the case. 
I have a 3080ti which under load needs 450 watts cooled by a 240 AIO watercooler. The backside of my case where it’s installed as outflow is glowing under heavy load (around 50-70 degrees) even with 4 fans as push/pull. 
Now imagine a tdp of 500-550w. 
 

We will have a hard time to cool this. And if I read the TDPs of Alder Lake my new 1000w PSU will be underpowered for the next gen. 
 

That’s a little bit crazy….

only fly in the winter time. and next generation of simmers need to find another hobby. our winters will be their summers. there will be no winters anymore. saves x-plane a lot of those missing extra winter textures. lets flysim as long as it is legal. future generations will be legally limited to 5-10 minutes flightsim a day, max. flightsim will become as exclusive a hobby as real flying - only for the rich and beautiful. everybody else can join a flightsim club and take turns: 1 plays pilot, the other 200 watch on a large screen and play passengers, or you'll have to hide in your illegal flightsim-bunker and fly in the basement.

Unless you want to pay a low life scalper 3 times the original price, you're all going to have to be satisfied with the GPU you have for now, since it's going to be a vey long time before the newest ones are available again.

You may be surprised if you could afford to buy a 3090 6 months ago you may not have to pay much more for the 4090. Nvidia are worried that they could find 4090s stuck on the shelves and not selling causing them to delay launch,
