Nvidia has released the RTX 4090 and RTX 4080, its newest GPUs with ray tracing technology. These cards are intended to take advantage of the new technology to achieve higher performance than previous models. To compare these new GPUs to their predecessors, we have considered the RTX 3000 series and their performance improvements over the previous RTX 2000 series.

Release Date

The RTX 4090, which was released on October 12th for $1599, is $100 more expensive than its predecessor, the RTX 3090. The RTX 4080 is planned for November of 2022 and originally had two versions — a 12GB and 16GB model. NVIDIA might be taking a slower approach for the release of the RTX 4000 series to try and sell excess stock of RTX 3000 GPUs. By 2024, they believe they will have Ampere Next ready, which will supposedly be the RTX 5000 series.

Price

Here are the price tags:

RTX 4060 — $330 (not confirmed)

RTX 4070 — $500 (not confirmed)

RTX 4080 12GB — $899 (cancelled)

RTX 4080 16GB — $1199

RTX 4090 — $1599

The RTX 4090 is $100 more expensive than the RTX 3090. A Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming OC was spotted on Newegg for $1,699. So, about $100 over MSRP; the lowest-priced Gaming X Tri variant is at MSRP. For Europe, though, pricing news is even worse: The lowest-priced RTX 4090 is around 1999 EUR and goes up to 2569 EUR (depending on the retailer), while the Gaming X Tri variant is at MSRP in Europe.

Should you Buy RTX 4000 Series?

Considering the RTX 4090’s price, it makes a poor choice for gaming. However, provided that several cheaper and more efficient designs can game pretty well, purchasing the 4090 becomes an unappealing decision.

With its price of $1,600, the 4090 is a great video card and can handle basically any game you throw at it. Anyone who has the budget and is willing to splurge on such an expensive item should go for it.

Conclusion:

Deciding which GPU is optimal for you and your use case can be a strenuous and time-consuming task.
