No as the 4080 would give the same performance and cheaper due to the CPU bound problem.

See 4K and 8K benchmarks last on the Vid.

Even the 4080 would be overkill for a lower resolution like 1080P

The pièce de résistance then ...we received a press build supporting DLSS3 and DLSS Frame generation of Microsoft Flight Simulator. The last time I tried this game I was hovering at 35~44 FPS in Ultra HD with an RTX 3090. The raw shader performance of the GeForce RTX 4090 pushes this to 64 FPS. But then the real magic; below we have also added a video have a peek. The results are outstanding.  We're flying around in Ultra HD at 125~150 FPS effortlessly, the scenery is stunning with ultra-quality settings. All resolutions show the same framerates, meaning there's a huge bottleneck somewhere. Still, you cannot complain; that's over 2x performance with the flick of a switch.

What I would like to know is how does a Ryzen 7950x compare with an Intel 12900k/12700k in 4K using an RTX 4090? 

Some reviewers of the 7950x suggested that we'd have to wait until the RTX 4090 is released to see it's true power as it was being GPU bottlenecked in some cases. I would like to know is the 7950x better matched with an RTX 4090 in 4K or does it offer the same performance as an older 12900K or other processor. This would be very interesting to know as I'm about to upgrade my entire system (probably with a 13900k).

Thank you, I loath posted videos unless the poster includes a summary or pertinent comment of some sort.

Chart shows more reasonable real world gains, not this DLSS 3.14 garbage.

Exactly !

It would be hard to justify a large financial investment for a 4090 for me to gain roughly 10fps

I can't imagine anybody who is only flying in 1080P would ever consider a 4090 though.  Right?

I would agree, they have other things to upgrade. LOL. Unless they in the very near future were picking up a new monitor.

AMD 7000 Series.

Loving my PNY card. Exceptional performance. Replaced my 1080ti. Few personal benches.
