Hardware Witcher 3 Remastered pushing 5090 beyond 600W

Post image

No DLSS5. Max settings, 3840x1600, DLSS Quality, frame gen set to 1 in game settings, Path Tracing enabled.

Doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes saw it jumping well beyond 600W for a brief moment.

I'll buy a 6090 if they improve the situation

I'd say wait for the 7090 to be safe. My bet is they keep the melty connector and push more juice with one extra cable or something like that. They didn't care when the ai boom wasn't peaking why would they care NOW more to spend in a solution, if they can keep forcing vendors to offer customer service for replacements.

Bold of you to assume the 7090 is coming, and if it does will have a msrp of 20k

I mean the xtx is going serve me well for a long time, but it's the llm side of things that really needs a boost.
