With the announcement of the new RTX 4000 series graphics cards from Nvidia, we finally have a new king of the graphics card world – the GeForce RTX 4090. Based on the brand new 'Ada Lovelace' architecture, the RTX 4090 is advertised as the most powerful desktop graphics card ever made. But before the RTX 4090 can take the title of king, like all potential contenders, it has to pull off a coup. And that, in today's graphics market, means going up against the RTX 3090 Ti. The current king of graphics cards has held the title for the past six months and has done so quite comfortably. So far, no graphics card has been able to challenge Nvidia's powerful RTX 3090 Ti GPU in pure performance. But does that change with the new RTX 4090? Let's find out in this RTX 4090 vs RTX 3090 Ti comparison.

With the new RTX 4090 exceeding expectations both in terms of features and performance, we thought it would be interesting to see how this new GPU compares to the latest generation flagship GPU, the RTX 3090 Ti. In this guide, we'll look at the various features and hardware advancements that come with the new generation of Nvidia cards and find out exactly how they stack up against the older cards.

Now, while we can be sure that the RTX 4090 will be faster than the previous generation cards, the question that remains is by how much? Is the value of the RTX 4090 undeniable, or is it something that everyone is missing? Let's find out.

Before we continue to explore all the new features and details of the RTX 4090, let's first have a general overview of the specifications. The first thing you'll notice about the RTX 4090 is that there's a significant bump in almost every aspect of the card, from the CUDA cores to the clock speeds.
