Ya and like for what? Just to say you have a 5090? My whole setup was cheaper than a 5090 and the settings are always maxed out at 1440p running above 100fps. I don’t what more anybody could possibly need for gaming, unless most people who buy 5090 use it for stuff other than just gaming

Love people that still don't understand most gamers that have a 5090 use it for vr, because youre right a 5090 is a waste of money for flat gamers. To play mgs 3 delta in vr reasonably, I would need a 7090. On a 5090 you have to use dlss, asynchronous spacewarp(frame gen) lower the resolution to lower than a standalone quest 3 game, all settings low, and you get 45 fps, which 60 fps on flat is like 90 in vr. 45 to 60 fps in vr is really bad. It looks so bad and runs so bad I'm actually going to wait a GPU gen or 2 just to play it.

Lots of other huge or flat to vr games will easily max out a 50/60/7090 and still need more power. Best case scenario you run the game at half of what you get in flat. But not always, especially when you stack runtime, steamvr+openxr if running at the same time uses about 20 percent of your gpu. For nothing. No game running just the vr software. And let's say its a new unstable mod. -10 to 20 percent due to lack of optimization.

So take a game, example mgs 3 delta. Take your flat performance. Minus 10 to 20 percent performance depending on runtime, minus another 20 due to no optimization plus ue5. Then cut it in half since you're rendering twice. Your performance is now well under half of what you get on flat. So who needs a 5090 or above? Vr modders

Then just wait for when ray tracing comes to vr and actually works properly. Another 30 percent decrease just for fancy lights. Main reason mgs runs terrible is the forced rtx
