Zotac GeForce RTX 3090 GPU for $869.99
The RTX 3090 is one of the most power video cards you can get at the moment; if you wanted anything more powerful you'd have to pony up for an $1150 RTX 3090 Ti or the near impossible to find $1600 RTX 4090. The RTX 3090 is about 15%-20% faster than the RTX 3080 at 4K resolution (it's overkill for anything less than that) but only about 10% slower than the RTX 3090 Ti. Admittedly, the new RTX 4090 is a lot faster, but it better be at roughly 2X the price of this deal.
Despite being one of the best gaming cards around, it's also an excellent choice for professional graphic artists, animators, modelers, software engineers, or data scientists who run render farms, intensive workstation applications like Maya or 3ds Max, or machine learning. That's because the RTX 3090 comes with a massive 24GB of GDDRX RAM compared to the RTX 3080's "paltry" 10GB-12GB.
The Zotac model comes with a triple fan 2.5-slot cooler with metal backplate and a minimal amount of RGB lighting. There are three DisplayPorts and one HDMI 2.1 port. Zotac video cards come with a 2 year warranty. However, if you register your GPU within 30 days from the date of purchase, you'll get an additional 1 year extended warranty for a total of 3 years.
