Hi,

since the GPU post was from me I may wanna add as upgrade that there is now also a RTX3090Ti, from the older generation and also just lunching now the new generation (Ada Lovelace) which is coming with a RTX 4090, 4080 16G and 4080 12G, but don’t be fooled by the 4080 12G its not just 4GB less VRAM but also slower Memory interface and less cuda cores, so its actually more a 4070;). The new generation seems to be a huge step in Performance, though we have to wait for benchmarks, but not sure its a better performance/$ actually since its really expensive.

Also for blower design there is coming the RTX 6000, not to be mistaken with the older RTX A6000. Its basically a 4090 with double VRAM and ECC memory and probably twice as expensive at least:D Not that the 4090 is cheap with a MRSP of 1600$ (2000€) ;)

cheers
Kilian
