Ok, thanks I think that clears up the drawbacks. I’d have to check which motherboard I’m using now, but generally would you expect a 3090 to be compatible with the motherboard that works with a 1080ti? Thanks

if your CPU/Motherboard support PCIe 4.0 16x slot, that is all needed for a RTX3090. I have a 5600x with cheap B550M-DS3H motherboard running RTX3090 + RTX3060. I also got an used RTX3090 from ebay after decline of mining. Just make sure your PSU can support it, draws 370 W at max.

Sorry I don't know any package for bench marking, if you find any I can run it and tell you the results though if needed, but only use Win 10 Pro for training if that matters.

oh, i just was thinking it could be useful (possibly making one myself) as I feel like this is a common issue for people.
