The RTX 4090 is absurdly powerful... and absurdly expensive. Although it easily claims the top slot in graphics card performance right now, it's hard to justify spending $1,600 on a GPU, even with features like updated ray tracing and DLSS 3. The good news is that the RTX 4090 holds a lot of promise for Nvidia's upcoming Ada Lovelace graphics cards.
