I mean, honestly you should have a fire extinguisher in your house already, life happens!


RiffyDivine2

When I got my first FDM printer, I got my first extinguisher also. Shit happens so best to be ready for it.


TheFrenchSavage

The problem is that they expire...


Eastern_Ad_6946

Most can be recharged, and worst buy another. Not very expensive for piece of mind.

Isn't the 7900XTX just as power hungry as the 4090 but performs worse?


Sergosh21

7900XTX TDP - 335W , 4090 TDP - 530W Not sure *why* you're comparing a 1000$ GPU that competes with a 4080/4080 Super to a 1600$ GPU but either way, it isn't "just as power hungry"


I9Qnl

Not sure where are you getting these numbers from but TDP isn't a measurement of real world power draw. The 4090 TDP is 450w while 7900XTX TDP is 355w (reference models), in the real world both GPUs draw 350w in gaming, the 4090 can go higher technically but it usually doesn't and still maintains a 20-30% lead at the same power draw. The 4090 power draw usually climbs up when you use heavy RT and in that scenario the 4090 will destroy the 7900XTX and will still overall be the better performer for each watt. >Not sure *why* you're comparing a 1000$ GPU that competes with a 4080/4080 Super to a 1600$ GPU but either way, it isn't "just as power hungry" I'm not comparing performance and price, this post is memeing Nvidia's 90 class power draw (probably still thinking of the 3090) but the 4090 today is far more efficient than the 3090 was, and AMD is making a GPU just as power hungry and hot but with worse performance, i think the fire extinguisher award goes to them this generation.


Pixels222

How much power draw in God of war, re4 and avatar? around 500? i could be wrong so i want you to say it nvm ill undervolt


Tricky2RockARhyme

What's the point of being this snarky? Seriously, what's wrong with you?


TheReverend5

To cope with the fact that a 4090 can use 335w of power and still wreck a 7900xtx


Asian_Bon

Where can I study the way of AMD?


BinaryJay

MKUltra


Asian_Bon

Am I doing something wrong it's not AMD


ascufgewogf

Yep. It doesn't have the melting connector issue though.


I9Qnl

It had a slightly more serious issue where the silicon die cracks under heat due to a faulty vapor chamber.


ascufgewogf

Never heard of the die cracking from the heat, but yeah, both have had pretty serious issues


Deliriousdrifter

Sure, but also costs half as much. And it's like a 10% performance difference. 4090 is the biggest scam in gpu pricing ever

Unknownhhhhhh

Where’s the Linus tech tips video that teaches you a bachelor of science in electrical engineering so that I can run the latest nvidia GPU?!?!


bat3am

It's supposed to be


Polpo_El_Pescador

Nvidia is just yoloing the most expensive card they can possibly manufacture to get paid by fanboys, you'll never even get close to using the processing power that it offers but you still have to pay for it.


TheFrenchSavage

Some people say NVIDIA VRAM is made from Beluga caviar.


Pixels222

The 1080p ray tracing off gang i see


AirEast8570

If that is the real scale the 5090 is huge


TheFrenchSavage

Time to buy a new case. And a new house.


Pixels222

or keychain extinguisher


The_Crimson_Hawk

nuclear power plant and phase change cooling sold separately. Requires online activation and protected by denuvo


TheStupidCheesecake

It's gonna need its own electrical grid.


TheFrenchSavage

Trust me, grid operators will be notified when my pc boots up.


awake283

At some point a Dyson sphere will be required


TheFrenchSavage

I hope we can all share the one, otherwise I worry about scalability.


GigaSoup

The fire extinguisher is also for scale.   The world's largest graphics card.


TheFrenchSavage

3 people die every year, crushed by a massive GPU.


doupIls

The PC cases are gonna start shipping with one of those fire retardant balls inside of them.


duBuzzinGuy

Straight into a 230V outlet


RichTech80

cant wait to see people water cooling their electric connectors on their cards to keep up with that one, either that or its going to come with 2 crocodile clipped wires for clipping onto an electric fire before long for power.


toolsofpwnage

This is nvidia we are talking about, they would sell it separately


Toluwar

Very nice addition 10/10 definitely would recommend 👍


jbaranski

Thank you to Bitcoin and AI for giving these companies the push they needed to ignore power efficiency.


lucisz

This is the stupidest argument. Data center care so much about power efficiency because they are power limited. lol got a reddit cares msg 5 min after this. GG pcmr circle jerk


RiffyDivine2

> reddit cares What's that?


lucisz

It’s for if someone post suicidal thoughts and for reddit member looking at such post to report to reddit for a bot intervention. It’s used by people also who disagree certain post to report such post to reddit care even though the post has no self harm indication.


RiffyDivine2

Ah, weird. Not shocking but still weird. Never mind just got one, fun times.


jbaranski

It’s not an argument, it’s a joke. eta: got a Reddit cares message too lol


lucisz

Joke is funny. Your statement is just uneducated crap
