RTX 4090 benchmarks! if anyone finds any, please post here!

[Lange_666]

1: Lot's of games are still single core... and for a reason.
2: I play (almost) on top high settings, i just don't chase FPS but put a cap on it, gives me some nice headroom to crank it up.
3: Do you really need them?
4: Honestly, for the last year i do nothing else. For the cut in framerate, just look at how many units (AI and real life ones) there are compared to single player. And then that extra headroom comes in real handy.
5: What are you still doing here then?

PS: And since you seem to be the smart ass knowing it all, a solicitation perhaps at their headquarters to point their noses in the right direction?

Just uploaded some VR benchmark data comparing my 3080 Ti to my new 4090.

I think we need to stay on topic.

RTX-4000 series effect on DCS with hardware.

This topic is important to DCS users and allowing informative hardware decisions going forward.

lots of 4090 benchmarks videos out there.. but havent seen any for DCS.. anyone that runs into any.. please share!

 

Sorry, duplicated post

Not a benchmark but still better than nothing.

2x msaa instead of 4x 
And what is supersampling setting in steam VR or OpenX ? 

45 fps while looking at blue sky in empty mission. 

Amazing. 

Maybe you should do some reading on Motion Reprojection and its practical use - this will probably allow you to contribute in a constructive way here.

Although this isn't benchmark related I can report that lots of people are purchasing them, the place I work at has many cards passing through to lucky recipients

Just imagine , in 2022 , DCS actually using more than 1 cpu core. 
Or , do i even dare to dream.... about features like DLSS 

 

DLSS3 frame interpolation does not support VR. DLSS2 looks good in marketing materials but in reality it reduces instruments readability. Good for typical games, not so great for flightsims.

Besides, Msfs runs even worse in VR than DCS. It's simply more demanding on hardware and there's not much headroom for increased vr requirements.

I don't see how it helps to say "well in this specific situation this feature would not help" , as an excuse for DCS still not being multicore , or not have DLSS, or FSR, raytracing, or anything at all. Still single core on such a cpu heavy game ? Come on man there's no excuse. 

And i'm sure lots of people would appreciate the choice of enabling DLSS for 2x the fps, at the cost of (in some specific cases) a few % less 'instrument readability'. 

And MSFS does not run 'worse', it runs a whole lot better if you consider the graphics.  That is probably what you meant though i am hoping.  
It is able to use hardware and new driver features. 

MSFS probably has a bigger budget i am not asking for DCS to have the same features as a triple A game from a huge developer. 

But this single core nonsense is just inexcusable in 2022
The move to Vulcan is also long overdue. 

And my first fear is, that both of these planned improvements are still years away. 
My second fear is that they will be poorly implemented. 

I guess we'll find out, eventually. Maybe. 

 

You've made your point @AirMeister, but people come to this thread to, at some point hopefully, read about 4090 performance with DCS.

 

And, I don't want to "feed" you, but also:

1. Realize that it might very well be possible, that you overestimate (over-expect from) multithreading/Vulkan

2. It's Vulkan, not Vulcan...

Correcting spelling now? Lame.

He's telling us ED lacks skill to optimize DCS. Could at least get the names right before making such claims.

But ok fair enough, you're right I guess, just see my comment as a friendly heads-up then  

[BuzzU]

I'm not disagreeing with you, but spelling is never a good way to go. We know he misspelled it.

 

Carry on.

For those lucky ones that got a 4090 already, the cards seem to be out of stock for now.

what is your power supply solution, did you need to upgrade and how much power are you rocking.

4090 Strix OC here, running off 4x8 pin connectors, supplied by 2x8 pin lines from my 2 year old BQT Dark Power Pro 1000. I have further OC'd the card to 3030MHz on GPU and 22000Gbps VRAM. In MSFS with VR, the GPU is drawing shy of the allowed 520W with GPU temps peaking at 60..65C.

So you are saying that you pull 520w through "TWO" PCIe-cables ? It doesn't really matter if they are dual-headed or single, it remains 2x 8-wire cable.

Each cable has a rating of 150w max. You should not use the dual-head config, use 4 cables with 8 wires each, if needed, buy a new PSU. 

You run that thing way above safe limits.

 

just my 2 cents

LOL really? I seriously did not know that and I have been running my OC'd 3090 (~490W) with this config for almost two years now. Well, honest thanks for that and I'll look into it!

[cordite]

Those who have non Gigabyte cards, what are you using for pin adapters, since 16 pin capable psus are not yet readily available?

It seems only Gigabyte includes pin adapters with the gpu.

Ok, just checked again and have to correct what I wrote above - it's already been two years and obviously I had forgotten I had already looked into this back then. I found some notes I put down on this in 2020.

Nevertheless, please correct me if I'm wrong: the PCIe power terminals on my PSU are 12 pin each. The cables I am using are 2 Y-splitters, each with 1x12 pin on the PSU end and 2x8 pin on the GPU end. Each branch (!) of the 2 splitters runs 8 wires from the 12 pin to each of the 8 pin. So currently my GPU is supplied by 4x8 wires coming from 2x12 pin terminals. Based on the 150W rating rule, this would yield a total of 600W. What's more: the PSU manufacturer is selling a 12VHPWR adapter which has 2x12 pin connectors for the PSU terminals and 1x12 pin GPU connector, the cable is rated at 600W:

The way I see it, this should be a safe configuration. Any objections?

 

Cheers,
DK

The GPU comes with an adapter, and you just plug the pcie cables into the adapter.

My Asus Strix OC came with a 12 pin to 4x8 pin adapter.

Your setup is fine, the PSU has non-standard sockets on the PSU side. Your previous post was a bit confusing and suggested you run the whole card from two PCIe 8 pin cables.
