The Nvidia Geforce RTX 4090 is currently available for purchase, with Nvidia's latest card far more powerful in comparison to the last-gen RTX 3090 24 GB GPU. It is based on an improved Ada Lovelace architecture and comes with 3rd generation RT cores that add an unmatched boost to gaming with hardware-accelerated ray tracing turned on.

RTX 4090 has finally normalized 4K gaming at refresh rates higher than 60 Hz. The latest RTX 40 series GPUs are now capable of fully utilizing the new heights that display technology has been able to hit over the last few years. However, with tons of good monitors available in the market, choosing the best high-resolution and high refresh rate models can be tricky.
