Its been in the cards but my 5 year old PC is running MSFS really well (shocking to think about it) that I am torn on getting a new one.... If I was going to go the 4000 series route I would wait another month and get the 16gb 4080 vs the 4090. I was interested in whether my current system could handle it power wise and the specs says I would need the same power wattage as does my current 6800XT, a 750w power supply. I have an 850 now so that shouldn't be an issue. The new cards don't need more that a 16x PCI-E slot do they?

October 11, 20223 yr I don't understand all this. My monitor has a refresh rate of 70 Hz. Ie 70 fps because the screen is redrawing 70 times a second. So even if I have graphics card giving me a reported 126 fps I'm only still actually seeing 70 fps. In other words anything more than a reported 70 fps are just wasted frames. Am I missing something here? Edited October 11, 20223 yr by jarmstro

New high end monitors are sold with 240Hz or higher. the fps discussion will continue until hell freezes over so we might just stop it here 🙂 // 5800X3D // RTX 3090 // 64GB RAM // HP REVERB G2 //

I find that blocking at 30 can be more comfortable for the GPU but there is a latency...

The fact that the cooling on the die is better just means that the heat is transferred quicker to your case/room. // 5800X3D // RTX 3090 // 64GB RAM // HP REVERB G2 //
October 11, 20223 yr I wonder how many people have a decent cpu and 4090 In time for 17 oct. My system won’t be released until oct 20 (13900k release date).

At 120V, these cards can peak around 8 amps, plus 2A for the PC system puts your pc setup around 10 amps. If you have a 15 amp breaker like I do, and it is 10 years old, they will generally trip at around 85% load. So that gives me about 13-14 amps real load (not peak or startup). If I have 10 for system and you add in the other receptacles on that circuit, you may be in a crunch. Watch out for other desk lamps, second monitors, ect. Something to consider at least. That is unless you have a 4000 amp main panel and disco with a uprated 2000 amp dedicated single recept. circuit - then you will be fine. 😉 CPU: Core i5-6600K 4 core (3.5GHz) - overclock to 4.3 | RAM: (1066 MHz) 16GB MOBO: ASUS Z170 Pro | GeForce GTX 1070 8GB | MONITOR: 2560 X 1440 2K
