TL;DW: At 4K, the RTX 5090 hits 20-50% uplifts in raster as compared to the RTX 4090, and 27-35% uplifts in RT as compared to the RTX 4090. Power efficiency is roughly equivalent to the 4090. The new dual flowthrough cooler design seems to perform exactly as advertised, providing remarkable cooling for a card that is only two slots thick.

To be honest, GN is not worth your viewing time anymore. He's just trying to stir drama on tech YouTube for the sake of starting drama...

He got multiple olive branches offered to stop the drama and he just threw them on top of the fire. He's being a manchild for no reason.

GN is correct though, and you sound like you're subbed to LTT.

What drama has GN stirred up that wasn't warranted?

[–] Firipu@startrek.website 2 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

A whole lot of shit slinging at LTT for no real reason. At when LTT rebuked the claims and suggested to stop doing so and work together in the future, GN just decided to double down and continue.

A bunch of childish stupid drama tbh, but very one-sided.

LTT deliberately fucked over a small boutique water cooling shop. They had a host if other fuckery that needed to be exposed. Why would GN chill out when LTT was doing stuff that directly opposed GN's pro-consumer and pro-small business values?

... that wasn't warranted?

[–] Firipu@startrek.website 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Don't want to get into a whole argument, But ltt suggested to stop throwing dirt. GN turned around and just continued slinging dirt. Just feels weird to me.

In that case, I suggest you stop throwing dirt at GN.

Not for no reason, drama gets attention. Also most tech reviewers are shameless shills
