      Bugger! I'd still be on the fence even at 3.8k. I remember shaking my head at 4090 prices… how times have changed

      • Oh absolutely. Not worth it at all for one piece of PC equipment unless you claim it on tax for work purposes etc if machine learning

      The first 4090 deal for $3,099
      It is amusing seeing the same comments on price, with the 5090 a full $1K more. NGreedia.

        RBA inflation calculator : https://www.rba.gov.au/calculator/annualDecimal.html

        4090 release date : 2019. $3000 in 2019 is $3,268.07 in 2025, but as we know, the "public" inflation "basket of goods" figure has not reflected the actual rises to tech and services in the same time period. So call it $3500 conservatively.

        So, $500 difference on $3500. 14% more $, for a ~30% general uplift, 33% more (and much faster) vram, and a 40-70% jump in loads that can push it (IE, High resolution VR). 92.2 billion transistors. That's like 11 discrete components for even living human, per card, on just the core chip.

        Tell me. How much would it cost you to manufacture?

          4090 was released in oct 22, 2019 predates even the 30 series

          • @kbw: For some reason my fat fingers typed 2019, but the calc was done on 2022, don't worry. Punch in the figures yourself if you like. It only goes up to 2024 so it's even closer to my $3500 extrapolation on the provided CPI.

              @Ademos: Copium. Other electronic items have not gone up at an equal rate to Nvidia's.

              Here's some RRP comparisons, also comparing ~2019 products (yes I know you mistyped) to their 2025 equivalent:

              Note 10+ 5G: $1,999
              S25 Ultra: $2,149
              ~7.5% increase

              Core i9 9900K: $999
              Core Ultra 9 285K: $1,100
              ~10% increase

              RTX 4090 (2022): $2,959
              RTX 5090: $4,039
              ~36% increase

              RX 5700XT: $600
              RX 9070XT: $1200
              Is a massive 100% increase, but this comparison is a bit different as while the 9070XT is the best card AMD offers this generation, the Radeon VII was the top-spec card of 2019, and was priced the same at $1200. I do still agree that the 9070XT is priced poorly though.

              This doesn't account for sale prices, e.g. S25 Ultra could be had for $1,200 earlier this year, and the Core Ultra 9 sits around $999 at the moment.

              This is a small sample size, but it's still quite clear that Nvidia is charting its own path with insane price hikes while other consumer electronics have only modestly increased.

                @heef: Can you point at which one of those offered up to 70% more performance at extreme/highest load?

                • +1

                  @Ademos: 70%? Where are you getting those figures?

                  I'm more interested in average performance increase across a range of applications, or games, not 'up to' as that is a tactic used by product marketing teams who want to put the biggest number in the consumer's face, but not necessarily the most relevant number. For example, I couldn't care less if one LLM performs 70% better. I use a GPU for gaming 99% of the time.

                  The 5090 is 33% faster than the 4090 across 20 Games - Dark Side of Gaming
                  The 5090 is 12% faster than the 4090 across 17 Games at 1440p, 27% faster at 4K - TechSpot/Hardware Unboxed

                  Something interesting is the jump in performance from the 3090 and 3090Ti to the 4090, achieving 73% and 60% increase in performance - Techspot

                  For reference, AU pricing at launch for the 3090 was $2,429, which makes the 4090's increase to $2,959 look reasonable in comparison.

                    @heef: Answer the question, and stop ignoring the VR uplift because it's devastating to your case.

                    • @Ademos: Answer mine. What do you use that it gives you a 70% uplift? Is it some VR games? If so, cool, I'm glad you are happy. I tried VR last year and it wasn't for me. Headsets are too heavy. Bigscreen Beyond looks promising though, just wish it was a higher refresh rate at those higher resolutions.

                      But yeah all good for you to make big claims, but actually show some evidence! Saying 70% increase means nothing to me without the application or game you are seeing the benefit in.

                        @heef: Hey cool, more opinions.

                        If you're not versed enough to know the answer, why are you arguing the value? Might need to get a bit more informed before forming that opinion there. Champ. Chief.

                        Take the 70% on faith. Point me to the other product that offers it.

  • This or health insurance?

    • You don’t need that extra kidney. Get both.

      • Yes, but get health insurance first. You don't want them to disqualify your uni kidney as pre-existing condition. Then sell your kidney and get this.

          Confusing instructions. Sold my graphics card bought a kidney.

  • Many on eBay still asking similar or more for 4090.
