3080 ti vs 3090

[Akira927]

Hi everyone I just wanted some input on what gpu I should get. I was looking into the 3080ti and the 3090 and was wondering which one would perform better. Thanks for the advice in advance!

for what?? obviously the 3090 is better, but if your asking if the 3080 ti will be enough, kinda need to know what it's being used for.

The 3090 has more cuda cores and ram, so it runs faster. But, the performance difference is pretty small, which can't be said about the price tag.

The question you need to ask is if you need the extra VRAM. The difference between them in most tasks is negligible, until you start needing more than 12GB of VRAM. 

 

Basically, if you're doing large blender renders or other compute heavy tasks, 3090, and if you're just gaming 3080 ti

For a gaming focused PC, the 3080 TI would be much better value.

I have both and it depends on the version.

 

For example my EVGA XC3 Ultra is about 6 to 10 frames down on my EVGA FTW3 Ultra 3080 ti at 4k. 

I compare at 4k since it is all GPU 90% of the time.

Here is Horizon Zero Dawn bench at 4k ultra.

 

EVGA XC3 Ultra 3080 ti      = 83fps   

EVGA FTW3 Ultra 3080 ti    =89fps

MSI Gaming X Trio 3080 ti   =89fps

MSI Gaming X Trio 3090      =89fps

EVGA FTW3 Ultra 3090 ti    =98fps

 

So my MSI Gaming X Trio 3090 performs about the same as a high end 3080 ti

A Suprim, Strix or FTW 3 3090 will do better than the Gaming X Trio but not by much.

The whole question ends here, really. If you don't need the VRAM, you don't need a 3090. 98% of the experience exists in the 3080Ti.
