Here’s most of his PC. Later in the thread he did get his 4090 and then his giant monitor.
Okay, everything’s ordered except for the 4090 and SSD. Here’s the final build:
Fractal Design Define 7 (white) case
Asus ROG Strix Z790-E motherboard
Intel Core i9-13900K
Corsair Vengeance DDR5 64GB 5600MHz
Corsair HX1200 1200W 80Plus Platinum power supply
ASUS ROG Strix LC II 360 ARGB White Edition
Arctic MX-4 Thermal Paste
2TB PCI 5.0 m2 SSD
RTX 4090 video card
Motherboard is overkill, but it has lots of USB and 5 m.2 slots.
If I use the PCIe 5.0 m.2 slot it will drop the CPU slot to x8; …
I’ve been super-impressed. My monitor does 120Hz and basically everything except MSFS maxes it out now. (And even MSFS does in most of the world.)
I don’t see noticeable visual degradation or artifacts when setting DLSS3 to Quality and enabling frame generation. But I’m not super-sensitive to it like some people are. But in games that support it, the frame generation really does feel like doubling your frame rate “for free.” (Or for $1599…)
That said, Cyberpunk with ray-tracing set to insane mode and running DLSS 2.0 at Quality at 5,120x1,440 gets me 73.34 fps average, and that feels silky smooth to me as well.
Assuming we see widespread DLSS 3.0/frame generation support on AAA games going forward, I think this is going make the 4060/4070 really impressive cards for people running monitors at saner resolutions.
Although, do note that Editer’s monitor is still about a million pixels less than a standard 4K resolution monitor, so it isn’t THAT bad in terms of how much work the video card has to do.
