More often than not, something from the ad leaks out, and in the case of the Geforce RTX 4090, it’s an image that will likely be part of the livestream tonight. This confirms the design of the RTX 4000 series.
A first image of the Geforce RTX 4090, which will be announced today at GTC by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, is making the rounds on the internet. This would confirm the design, which was already hidden behind a static cover and is supposed to show a Geforce RTX 4080. The unexciting part: As far as you can see, the design of the Geforce RTX 3090 Ti changes little, so the The Geforce RTX 4090 requires three slots in the case and is based on the well-known Ampere design and cooling system. Meanwhile, the axial fan appears to have redesigned blades.
The Geforce RTX 4090 is said to use the AD102-300, have 16,384 FP32 shaders, and offer 2,520 MHz of boost. This is consistent with recent data, but not with a bench reading that indicated 3015 MHz. GDDR6X (24 GiB) memory should have a speed of 21 Gb/s, which means ~1 TB/s transfer throughput, as with the RTX 3090 Ti. According to the latest information, the package has 450 watts TGP (Total Board Power) and can be up to 660 watts can be configured. At least that would be the case for a design with a 12VHPWR connector. The board partners can deviate from this within the framework of the specifications made by Nvidia.

A measured value for the Geforce RTX 4090 has even appeared on the Chiphell forum, according to which it reaches 20,192 points in 3DMark Time Spy Extreme. Around 19,000 points were forecast in the rumor mill. It is assumed that even a few more points would have been possible if the test system was not ranked in the middle class. A Core i5-12400F was used.
