There's actually a good amount of OC headroom here, for an already balls-to-the-wall GPU. You won't need to tweak much, and there won't be another 100W of power or something out of nowhere.

2145-2200MHz GPU boost: Depending on your card, you're going to see up to 2200MHz without a problem.

For now, the MSI is out in the lead without a doubt.

MSI's air-cooled RTX 3090 Ti > ASUS's water-cooled RTX 3090 Ti: I was seeing more consistency in MSI's overclocked GeForce RTX 3090 Ti SUPRIM X beating the water-cooled ASUS ROG Strix LC GeForce RTX 3090 Ti OC Edition, but I'll dive into more detail in a showdown between the custom RTX 3090 Ti cards after I'm done running the overclocked ASUS through its paces.

but it's replacing the RTX 3090, not the Ampere-based TITAN RTX that never materialized. NVIDIA is making plenty of references to its near 10-year-old TITAN RTX, and sure it kinda is.

However, I've overclocked every custom GeForce RTX 3090 graphics card that I've got - before, and leading up into this review - and pushed the 24GB GDDR6X up over 21Gbps and enjoyed 1TB/sec of memory bandwidth for the last year or more.Īnother huge upgrade over the RTX 3090 is that the new RTX 3090 Ti has its spiffy new 16-pin PCIe 5.0-ready power connector with up to 450W available on the RTX 3090 Ti. There's the same 24GB of GDDR6X on the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti as the previous GeForce RTX 3090, on the same 384-bit memory interface - but with a big change: it's clocked at 21Gbps - providing it with up to 1TB/sec of memory bandwidth, up from the 936GB/sec on the RTX 3090. There are other tweaks, with the same 82 RT cores but 336 Textures Units (328 TUs on the RTX 3090). NVIDIA is using the full GA102 on its new GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, with 10,752 CUDA cores compared to the 10,496 CUDA cores on the same (GA102 GPU) as the GeForce RTX 3090.
