I'm traveling in a rv and only generate 600w of solar max in the best conditions a few hours a day, the 4090 itself took 500w. For comparison sake, my 24v rooftop air conditioner takes between 350-1200w and my oven takes 1200-2000w, my fridge takes under 100w. I have 12kw total battery capacity (and I'm never at 100%). This of course isn't including all my lights, fridge, etc. And I don't run anything as much as my computer.
I game on my m1 max macbook pro now which is shockingly good at ~100wh.
I tried to make it make sense but it just doesnt. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMRWCkjBSoFUpIKFbcPhds5qxM2piBpH1xnJ7rSAU_jf2aoK6UV79bjRu37_PFAiw?key=VnNJQUx6WWtEcWJWczdxbUo0R2hmZ2h6QlVneUF3 https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMRWCkjBSoFUpIKFbcPhds5... I have enough battery charging frustrations with the few things I do run daily.
- satvikpendem 1mo agoShould've kept the GPU even if unused rather than sold it for whenever you're done traveling as they are much higher in price now if you wanted to re-buy, such as for local LLM usage.
- swozey 1mo agoI knew I shouldn't have responded to your stupid question. I didn't ask for your input.
- satvikpendem 1mo agoSorry if it came off that way, I was just confused why anyone would sell such an item, especially with the market as it is today, if they weren't desperate for money or something which you didn't seem to imply you were.
- allarm 1mo agoIt didn't "came off that way". You literally decided to speak up about something that has nothing to do with you.

- allarm 1mo agoI don't disagree, but no one forces you to be a jerk. Don't act surprised when you receive a pushback for that.
