More Pictures of NVIDIA's Cinder Block-sized RTX 4090 Ti Cooler Surface
Back in January, we got our first look at the cinder block-like 4-slot cooling solution of NVIDIA's upcoming flagship graphics card (called either the RTX 4090 Ti, or the TITAN (Ada). "ExperteVallah" on Twitter scored additional pictures of the cooler. Its design sees the heat dissipation surface pushed to the entire thickness of the cooler, and ventilated the entire length.
The card's PCB isn't conventional—not perpendicular to the plane of the motherboard like any other add-in card—but is rather along the plane of the motherboard, with additional breakaway daughter cards interfacing with the sole 12VHPWR power connector, and the PCIe slot. This slender, ruler-shaped PCB spans the entire length of the card, without coming in the way of its heat dissipation surfaces. The length is used for the large AD102 ASIC that's probably maxed out (with all its 144 SM enabled), twelve GDDR6X (possibly faster 23 Gbps), and a mammoth VRM that nearly maxes out the 600 W continuous power delivery design limit of the 12VHPWR.

and probably re launch it for 4090$
P.S.: for once the cheapest 4090 at my etailer (and in stock) is 1589.90chf/$ ... oddly close to MSRP ... very strange ...
And whats the point on 4090ti?, I mean, 5090 will (has to) be an overkill when compared to previous generations (in terms of reviews, no matter the price) and its possible the next release after this Ti, (SUPER versions apart). These late Ti versions are a joke in the consumer cycle.
why I don’t know. It’s in a case, who cares, y’all build ATX PCs then cry when your GPU uses more then 2 slots. Because they can? I dont know why, pc enthusiasts used to love powerful new hardware, now everyone’s cynical about everything.
GPUs these days come with support brackets, but this honker might need a full-on erector set :laugh:
p.p. Yeah my room is with air-conditioning, but in my country it's a must anyway.
