ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 White Edition Gaming Graphics Card (PCIe 4.0, 24GB GDDR6X, HDMI 2.1a, DisplayPort 1.4a), 3 Year Warranty

I was genuinely excited about the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX ™ 4090 White Edition Gaming Graphics Card, but unfortunately, the experience has been far from smooth. To its credit, the card manages most games with impressive efficiency. However, when I started using DisplayPort for 3D applications, I encountered significant difficulties. For some reason, the card fails to establish a successful DirectX 3D interlink with DisplayPort, which severely impacts shadow rendering in 3D programs. It’s not a cable issue either, as when I switch to HDMI, the problem doesn’t occur. The technical investigation points towards a possible incompatibility or glitch between the DisplayPort 1.4a, used by this card, and DirectX 3D rendering. What’s more, I also found that this issue prevents successful benchmarking of the computer. Every benchmark program I’ve tried encountered a DirectX 3D error, rendering them unusable. What has been most disappointing is the response, or rather, lack of response from ASUS. I’ve reached out to them about this significant issue, but they have not even acknowledged my concerns, let alone provided assistance. So, in conclusion, while this card might be a good fit for general gaming, the DisplayPort and DirectX 3D rendering issues, compounded by the inability to benchmark, significantly undermine its value, especially for those who work heavily with 3D applications or like to keep track of their PC’s performance. I, therefore, feel compelled to rate this product with a single star. ASUS, you’ve let us down on this one.

Great graphics

What do you expect? It's a 4090. But hey it would have 5 stars if it didn't cost three kidneys and fourteen misc limbs to get one but for gaming it works amazing. Tip: pair with a monitor that works well for how you play. If you're a resolution junky go for a low refresh rate monitor and play at 60 fps at 2K or 4K. But if you like smoothness go with a high refresh rate monitor and play at 144-220 frames and 1080p. Don't try both, it will turn even this card into a stove.

This think was A very nice upgrade from My 3090 ti FE. More so for the beauty in my white build but the power and boost in FPS are very noticeable. Definitely want to use the included support that comes with it cause this thing is a monster.

a beauty
