I agree. But my Asus 4090 TUF is very quiet even at %30 fan compared to zero. Still being obligated to use a custom fan curve is not ideal. My bios is latest from Asus Z790 STRIX Wifi II (the one with 0x12B microcode v1602). And 14900k Latest 4090 vbios version available

Nvidia Normal power plan (prefer max performance will ALSO max Core Clock, I have that downclock to idle) Windows Balanced power plan Yes all drivers are up to date

Otherwise the default GPU zero fan curve would be fine with GPU temp almost 48c, only sitting in desktop

Not really fretting, but it's less than ideal situation. I'd like clocks to rest to idle when nothing is being done. Also I HAVE to make a custom fan curve (higher one) because of the increased heat when 2 monitors are active.

Hi, I have an RTX 4090, and 2 OLED monitors, main display is Aorus 1440p 360hz@10bit, secondary is MSI 4k 240hz@10 bit, both use DSC, and both are connected to HDMI 2.1 cables and ports (my 4090 has 2 HDMI 2.1 ports). Nvidia control panel is set at 1440p, 360hz, 10biit for the Aorus, and 4k...

Late to reply. Get the 4k. It's more future proof and even getting 100fps to 140fps is good given the monitor has VRR/Gsync-like feature (even though not officially approved). Past 240fps/hz is not very easy to accomplish (especially CPU wise).

I have the Gigabyte FO27Q3 and it's excellent monitor. I had the MAG version of MSI and returned it because it can not have the FW updates.

A question to the reviewer, were the test for absolute input lag done with VRR on or off? Thanks

Setting a minimum cpu frequency to %5 should achieve what you say. No? at idle for example I'm not using static frequency and all BIOS C states are enabled

I have Ultimate Power Plan set. But lowest CPU is 5% and highest is %100. Is it the same as Balanced Power Plan?

Thanks guys. The 149k works beautifully. Limited the PL1 and 2 to 253 and will try to undervolt it as much as it can go. With stock clocks (enforce all Intel limits). Before I limit it CPU package went to 321watt in jist CPU-Z bench. And temp hit 100. But it seems now it more under control...

Yes I know a great cooler (on par with good water cooling performance), and worths every penny I spent on it ($110).

Hi, Currently having a 13700K on the Asus Prime Z790 P Wifi (DDR5). Updated to the latest BIOS 1602 (Dec 5th 2023). It does list 14900K as supported CPU https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/prime/prime-z790-p-wifi/helpdesk_knowledge/?model2Name=PRIME-Z790-P-WIFI It has...
