- Sohcahtoa82 4y agoI would not get a 3090 for gaming. It's only 10-20% faster than a 3080, yet is significantly more expensive. Games won't use the extra VRAM.
- wellthisisgreat 4y agoParent didn’t mention gaming, so I assumed general use, hobbyist ML etc. Even for gaming though wouldn’t 3090 be more future-proof? 4K is really the way to experience games in 2021 and beyond
- Sohcahtoa82 4y ago10-20% faster isn't a lot of future proofing. Certainly not worth paying double. You certainly don't need a 3090 for gaming in 4K. nVidia's claim of the 3090 being a "4K" card is marketing bullshit. If a game can't be run in 4K on a 3080, then the 10-20% performance increase of a 3090 isn't likely to change that.
