Upscale and Gaia Performance Test request for 4090 owners

So you saying it’s about equal results between the AMD flagship and NVIDIA flagship cards?

No, the 4090 is miles faster than any of AMD’s GPUs.

Hey

I tried your request and I am getting on average 13.3FPS to 15.5FPS using a i9-13900KF and a 4090 GeForce RTX, hope that helps you out!

With Gaia AI Model?

Yes , I built a brand new PC and I am using two 360 AIO’s and a watercooled 4090. My temps are very low and I am using DDR5 64GB 7000MHZ. Without these parts I believe I would be around 8-10FPS with a standard 4090 but there is no AMD GPU that comes close to a 4090 Period, End of story, when AMD builds one or Intel, I will be there but until that time, the 4090 is King!!

Your computer hardware config is excellent. :+1:
Would you mind run the benchmark by clicking (Process > Benchmark, or, Ctrl/Cmd + B) ?

After that please post the result in here

I’m curious, what GPU do you run? You have your system specs in your profile but I don’t see a GPU listed…

Hi all thank you SOOOO much for your help. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I pulled the plug and went ahead and got a purchased / built a system last week. I just finished the built tonight and haven’t tuned it. I convinced myself that it is also an upgrade over my xbox ( I didn’t have a gaming/ml machine so that made it easier). :wink:

Build

  • 13900K
  • 64GB ram DDR5 6000 something (XMP for intel and I set it to XMP II)
  • 4090 gigabyte aurous something vid card
  • asus proart z790 motherboard
  • 2TB WD black nvme
  • 1000watt corsair 1000x psu

Cooling

  • thermal grizzly paste
  • nzxt z73 cpu cooler + push / pull with nzxt fans (6 total) for the CPU
  • cheap thermalight cpu bracket thingy
  • no extra gpu cooling and am still using windows update nvidia drivers XD
  • case is open at the moment so no closed casket test yet :sweat_smile:
  • everything is set on auto right now

:sunglasses:

testing

  • I tried multiple sources and am getting about 8-10fps with 1080p source (jumps around a bit)
  • overall cpu temp is 57C ( core is 69C)
  • GPU is 60C but is using 450 watts :astonished:

Overall this is pretty fun and I’m happy with the results as it is faster that the cloud solution, I can run it 24/7 (power is cheap here), and I can use it as a gaming pc to boot!

Nice rig! Your username is a bit misleading now though, lol.

Can you please post your 1080p benchmark, 4k settings are not good for comparing results…

You mean 1080p source upscale to 4k?

I’ll try this later this week :slight_smile:

re: username

I have nice shoelaces :wink:

correct.

So I had to scale things back due to heat, noise, and power issues. Turned off multiple core enhancement and downclocked the CPU per general recommendations these days with a 13900K. Still getting about 8.9fps.

PSU is hot to the touch and fans are running at 100% so I placed an order for a better PSU (1500w) and am getting a case with better airflow.

Topaz has been rock solid :sunglasses:

On my tests, videos in 720p/1080p upscale to 2160p with chr2/appo8/ddv3(59.94/60p)+ ghq5 model setting,4090 = 3090/3090ti (5fps per card)* 2,3090/3090ti = 2080ti mod 22G(3fps per card) * 2. But when videos require more than 10 hours to complete I always get unknown error during the task using TVAI version 3.2.x and sometimes it appears artifacts like judder and green blocks. So now I have to go back to version 3.1.x.

here you go :slight_smile:

Do you mind sharing more about your configuration / clocks? I would like to see if/how I can increase my speed at least a little even though only my CPU has an AIO.

I just upped my 4090’s wattage to 600w tonight and am getting a more solid 8.9 with fewer drops.
I do not believe that I have otherwise overclocked it yet.

I haven’t overclocked my CPU and have kept multi-core enhancement off / power limit on since with 800 watts of power draw I am essentially out of wattage until my new PSU gets here. :sweat_smile:

After 3.2.3 Version my FPS has dropped slightly to an average of 11-15FPS when converting 1080p to 4K in H264 High Nividia with Artemis Denoise/Sharpen on and in MP4 at 40MB/s. I am using a i9-13900KF/4090 with 64GB DDR5 7000MHz water cooled and on a WD 4TB 850X M.2 NVME 7300 R/W Drive with a PSU of 1350 so I have no power supply issues.

My 1500watt psu just came in and I should be able to up my game later this week. :smiley:

thanks again for the info! :slight_smile:

This was an interestin read, I’ve been hunting for better performance for a while. Would bumping the CPU up actually make much difference?

Anyway if this helps peoples scaling expectations here’s my testing results:

Note the GPU runs at:

Note that this actually goes between 8.3 and 8.9fps throughout the tests on this video.
