They'll tell you to not use an underrated PSU and to buy a bigger one.

Yeah I'm thinking they'll respond with exactly that, I'm pricing a new 1000w. 80 plus Platinum versions are almost $400

Yea, PSU's these days are crazy expensive.
I bought one of those new Corsair SHIFT PSU's with the side exit cables a few months back and cried paying for it.

Well yeah but what's the base resolution of 1080p performance? Like 720p?Latest patch brings XeSS performance improvements

Tried it on 6800XT machine today. The PT setting works pretty badly with GPU power dropping to 200-220W and it's certainly not CPU limited since that goes down too with the fps. In fact, the power usage decreases with increasing effective resolution(FSR).
Psycho RT now seems to work better than I remember.

So an interesting thing about path tracing is it will decrease unit utilisation heavily over all in comparisons to a Traditional Rendering because it is something GPUs are bad at.
Recently I played Cyberpunk 2077 with pathtracing on my 3080 Ti. The monitor is a 1080p one so the resolution is lower, but of course the performance is still not very good. I finally settled on DLSS performance because it dips into low 40FPS too frequently with DLSS quality or balance. With DLSS performance I think it can be considered as playable if you have a VRR monitor.
One thing interesting is that it has more noises or artifacts than 4090 (at least what I remembered). It's not just resolution (I played on a 4K monitor with my 4090). It's also not just DLSS as I tried it with DLSS disabled and those artifacts are still there (though a bit less prominent).
After playing it for a while, I think it's not bad but the resulting artifcats probably makes it not that worthwhile on a 3080 Ti. On a 4090 I think it's no-brainer as the performance is good enough and there are no obvious artifacts (at least on a 4K monitor). On a 3080 Ti I'd say maybe playing with normal raytracing or even raytracing disabled probably going to be better overall. Of course, if DLSS3 will be available on 3080 TI someday it might be worthwhile.

From the article:
Decided to try it out again today on 6800XT for the comparison. With PT the power usage remains in the same range(200-210W) from 1024x768(!) all the way upto 3440x1440. Meanwhile, power usage for normal RT Psycho scales normally with resolution.
Had similar issue with Portal RTX:

AMD's RT profiler is so much better than Nvidia's. I wonder what Nvidia is hiding.
"However, one shader engine finished its work after 70 ms, leaving a quarter of the GPU idle for the next 91 ms." That's brutal, is AMD not doing tile based distribution across shader engines?
Between thread divergence and memory stalls there's a lot of hardware idling each frame
It's the same problem as always, it's very hard to feed these beasts.
and the iq is good, it seems. Too bad I don't have the game though.Latest patch brings XeSS performance improvements

Curious if Ada sees significantly higher utilization than Ampere due to SER.
But this path tracing is highly optimized for GPUs. My GPU power in Portal RTX and Cyberpunk Overdrive is nearly at 100%. I think that path tracing is much better suited for current GPUs than tradional rasterizing rendering with a bloated software stack to archive similiar image quality to path tracing (or ray tracing).
Path tracing is certainly a more elegant workload and bypasses a ton of fixed function hardware but current GPUs are nowhere near optimized for it. Lots of divergence and memory requests in path tracing that lead to bubbles in execution.
