Funny how you ignore any arguments where you'd loose, no matter how much you'll cherry pick. Let me repeat: Gaming isn't the only use case. There are other games.
But hey, keep calling people stupid redditors like you're a higher being and people should feel insulted. Continue your holy war against people who have needs or a value judgment that differs from your obviously superior one.
and now you are talking about cherry picking, i wasn't cherry picking, this thread about Starfield and the game doesn't support ray tracing.
you are talking about Blender, you are the one who cherry picking.
Blender that app made to compare Nvidia cards between each others, very wrong to use it outside Nvidia.
the best way is to look at video games performance, if you are not a fan boy/girl.
or maybe you own Nvidia stocks that's why you do these misinformation here.
4090:
1440p: 97.8fps
4K: 53.5fps
4080:
1440p: 71.3fps
4k: 36.7fps
7900 XTX:
1440p: 52.8fps
4K: 26.1fps
52.8 * 1.4 = 73.9fps (meaning the 4080 is just under 40% faster with RT enabled at 1440p)
52.8 * 1.85 = 97.7fps (meaning the 4090 is just over 85% faster with RT enabled at 1440p)
26.1 * 1.4 = 36.6fps (meaning the 4080 is just over 40% faster with RT enabled at 4K)
26.1 * 2 = 52.2fps (meaning the 4090 is more than twice as fast with RT enabled at 4K)

The numbers don't lie, you do.
Native 4K:
Radeon RX 7900 XTX: (93.0fps)
GeForce RTX 4080: (88.7fps)
https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html
Interestingly, the 7900 XTX is far less power efficient than the 4080, using 20% more power to provide 5% better performance
This thread might be about Starfield in particular, still you argue over and over that a 4090 is generally a bad purchase, like there's no other reason to even buy a GPU.
And here's you misinformation, straight from opendata.blender.org:
Of course I've cherry picked the worst offending performance, I'm trying to make a point after all, but it's absolutely not the only one where AMD GPUs bite the dust. If all you use your box for is gaming, all you look at is game benchmarks. Obviously. If you also run productivity oriented, there are other metrics.
P.S. Since you're seemingly not able to perform a simple Google search, and enjoy to spew forth useless assumptions or guess what it is: Blender isn't some benchmark that prefers NVidia over AMD, it's probably the largest open source and free 3D modeling, rendering, and animation software package. It's basically hardware/OS agnostic and supports RDNA/Metal/CUDA/... under Linux/OSX/Windows.
Click here if you want to know more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blender_(software)
and they don't show the games, very sus.
in other legit sites like Techpowerup, 4080 is faster than 7900XTX by 10% in ray tracing games, and slower 10% with no ray tracing.
and 4080 has almost half the VRAM 16GB Vs 24GB, and more expensive who want to this miserable deal??
i will not recommend 4080 even to my enemy, no sense to buy it over 7900XTX.
do you know why i said a lot? because AMD drivers always boost the performance for their old cards, so 7900XTX will be much faster than 4080 in the future.
but Nvidia are nasty with their updates for older cards they intentionally reduce the performance for previous gen to make them run slower so their customers will be forced to upgrade, so 7900XTX now is 10% faster and in the next year will be 30% faster or even more.
because AMD updates will gain 15% more performance and Nvidia updates will lose 15% performance.
You're just making more things up. Performance stays roughly the same for both manufacturers as drivers mature, which is why the 3080 is still faster than the 6800XT at 4K.
So what you're saying is that AMD aren't capable of writing good drivers and their software team needs a couple of years to catch up to their silicon?
Btw., I have a 3070 sitting in my secondary box, it's encoding x265 just as fast as it was the day I bought it.
Tell 'em, Steve-Dave!
Do you think people make decisions about their hardware based on a single game ? LOL
Sure. And when ignoring frame generation, DLSS, Reflex and all other features that AMD can't implement.
Some folks have OCD with fps.
Either card is fine.
