    This is why I love Zotac. We’ll, not this reason, but it adds to the small pile of smiles they’ve given me.

    That being said I’m skipping this Nvidia gen and might break for AMD next. My 3090 is still trucking fine and I feel like Nvidia has lost their value after the debacles of the 40 series.

      Did you hear about the news that AMD is skipping out on “high-end” market segment next generation? No real concrete numbers to this statement. I have heard speculation that they plan on making cards just as powerful as last gen except with better ray tracing and CHEAPER.

        I have heard this, and to be honest, I don’t think I need the highest power GPU anymore. I mostly got the 3090 for VR and I seldom use my kit anymore. Upper-mid range AMD might be the answer for me.

      You should think about selling it TBH. 3090 prices are shooting up like crazy, and may be at a peak, because they are the last affordable card to self host LLMs.

        Never even thought of that, is there a good website to sell a GPU on or is it pretty much just eBay?

        I just don’t play games like I used to, just videos now. Poor thing hardly gets any use.

          You could list it locally depending on where you are, through FB marketplace or Craigslist.

          Otherwise, yeah, eBay.

      AMD is by far the price-per-unit-performance leader. Same is true on the CPU side. Intel and Nvidia aren’t even on the chart tbh.
