EVGA abruptly ended its NVIDIA GeForce graphics card business in September. The company continues to make motherboards, PSUs, coolers, and gaming peripherals. Its graphics card business is believed to have been shuttered as the company was done developing custom-design GeForce RTX 4090 graphics cards that never made it to mass-production. JayzTwoCents got their hands on one such graphics card, and by the looks of it, this is possibly the best custom-design RTX 4090.
Since it's no longer an AIC partner, EVGA isn't allowed to display "GeForce RTX" branding on the product, and so their EVGA "Next Gen Graphics" card is branded as such. The card is surprisingly compact compared to the other 33-36 cm RTX 4090 custom-design cards. EVGA made all efforts to maximize its spatial utilization with a high-density aluminium fin-stack heatsink.
The best part about this design is the location of the 16-pin 12VHPWR connector, which is located at the tail end of the card, as opposed to the top. This is a significant design choice, as it prevents the inevitable bending of the 12VHPWR-to-PCIe power adapter in typical mid-tower cases. Most RTX 4090 cards are about 15 cm tall, and when you add the 3.5 cm requirement of the power adapter to remain unbent for structural integrity; you effectively end up with a >185 mm-tall graphics card. Most mid-tower cases barely have 170 mm clearance for CPU cooler height.
The card also features an innovative new real I/O bracket design that minimizes sagging over time, even though the card supports EVGA's ELeash accessory, with two mounting points along the PCB. Another innovative feature is that the dual-BIOS selector switch has an LED indicator telling you which BIOS is in use at all time (performance vs. quiet). Lastly, the card comes with EVGA's patented iCX sensor suite, and Precision X software that lets you force the card to hold onto boost clocks at all times.
