You mean one on the right?
Those aren't mandatory for cable to work. They just let PSU and GPU "pair" and properly coordinate what kind power draw is possible from the GPU. You can use connector without those extra pins.
Yep, thanks.

This is interesting. Also can't hurt for AIBs to target 600W already considering that's where we'll eventually end up anyways.
quoting again just to remind you all that open loops are really cool!
While I assume I could make this fit in my case, I'll never know how difficult it might be because I'll be immediately stripping the cooler off for a waterblock before any 4090 gets near my case. In the end, I'd expect it to look like what my current block looks like:
That's a very nice looking build, I've always been curious about custom loops but I never went through with it because I don't really like the building computers part itself anymore, and it probably requires some level of maintenance, plus I'd be paranoid about leaks.
Based.
If true, it also means the revisions next year should be able to shrink.
Supposedly some AIB models like STRIX do pull that 600W and recommended PSU is 1000W.
I wonder how much performance uplift we'll see from going beyond 450W. If it's like a couple percent improved performance for another 100W of power draw then it won't be worth it.

Fuck me, that's huge! They really aren't playing around with these graphics bricks now huh?
On the high-end it really makes me want to go back to water cooling my entire system. On the plus side, I'm hoping that the noise levels are going to be pretty low if they're building cooling systems as extravagant as this for the high-end models.

What fucking case can fit this goddamn thing?
Quick lookup has it as 358.5 mm long, so nothing that drastic all things considered. For e.g. Fractal Design's Torrent can easily take that GPU.
The dimensions are:
AORUS GeForce RTX™ 4090 MASTER 24G Specification | Graphics Card - GIGABYTE Global
Discover AORUS premium graphics cards, ft. WINDFORCE cooling, RGB lighting, PCB protection, and VR friendly features for the best gaming and VR experience!
This thing is about as long as my current compact ATX case, a Raijintek Thetis which has a length of 360mm, and is equipped with a Ryzen 9 3900X cooled by a Kraken X53 AIO, an MSI Ventus RTX 3080, and 4 SSDs. 🤣
Full ATX towers could possibly accommodate this without too much trouble, regardless I would love to see these cards hooked up to a water cooler instead. Should make for a cleaner build.
That looks as big as my cat

I've got a Meshify. Looks like it will just about accomodate these.
It's not just length, it's width.
That chonker is 6.375in wide.
Even if it technically "fits" in some cases, there won't be any room for air flow, since it exhausts out the sides.
It's a good thing I like to have a big mid tower case, but I'm aiming for a FE. My p600s should be fine.
That is true, dimension I neglected so my bad. It can also cause issue with powerplug being on that side now, and not in the back. Especially when with these new 12-pin connectors you aren't supposed to make any extreme bends at the connector. Smaller cases can see themselves running into width issues too with chonkier AIBs.
One we are talking about is 162.8 mm wide and case I mentioned, Torrent, can take 188 mm CPU cooler, so there is roughly ~25 mm (0.98 inches) free space left with that GPU installed. Between GPU and side panel that is. That is bit yikes as Torrent isn't small case.
A supposed leak of 16Gb 4080 performance

I remember all those crazy diagrams that tried to determine the size of theconsole, like identifying the watch that this right guy was waring and measuring size with that. :DAlso this from the early leaks
Good to see the omnipresent Shadow of the Tomb Raider included there.A supposed leak of 16Gb 4080 performance

I'm a bit on a fence now, my pc gaming time has been over for > 10 years and my last purchased graphics card was a GeForce 4 Ti 4200. My son has birthday soon and really wished to upgrade his card, at the moment we're looking at a MSI GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Ventus 3X OC (btw those name just became worse... so confusing and long... good old times, want vodoo back haha)
So now... I'm not sure if I should actually get that card (around 1k EUR at the moment) or add a bit more and purchase a 4080. I really feel it's impossible to compare... there are so many different versions etc. I don't remember it being this hard back then, completely overwhelmed. Is the difference that huge from the 3080 card above to the 4080? And from what I heard, buying a 4090 would be waste of money?
EDIT: And sorry for being a bit "offtopic", but i thought it was probably the most fitting thread as I don' think creating one for this would be justified

Has anyone made a spreadsheet or other easily usable list of dimensions for the announced 4090s?
3080ti will perform fine for years as it is. Doubt a third party card will actually sell at MSRP.
My Phanteks P500A! I can't upgrade now, but glad that for once when I built this I got a PC case that's big enough to last me into the future as parts keep getting bigger.
The size of the AIB cards are really off-putting. It looks like FE or bust for me. I'm not moving my AIO or removing my basement fans (Lian Li Lancool 2). I have a GIGABYTE VISION 3080, according to the released 4090 dimensions I'll need to account for and extra 2-2.5" for l/W/H.. Anything over 150MM W is out of the question. I could get a Lancool 3, but didn't plan on rebuilding until mid 2023/2024.
I'd love an FE, but in Australia they've only ever shipped a miniscule amount in recent years. The 3000 series only got a tiny run sent to a single outlet, weeks after the other models launched, and you had to do a lottery to even be allowed to buy it. They've given no indication of what the 4000 series rollout will be like, but I'm not holding my breath.

I think this will not fit into my NR200 ha?
Was planning on getting a compact next year, but apparently the maximum GPU length it can support is 330mm. Really want a decent airflow case that isn't a full sized tower. I'm done using full towers for my primary gaming PC since I have to move them around quite a bit. Looks like the Founders is the only one that would reliably fit, and I don't want that design.
Yeah, it feels like they'll have to do a 2nm 50-series at some point and just kind of stop until graphene chips become a thing.
Thats insane

And of course, Arstechnica answers the most pressing question about the 4090 size
Weird GPU support bracket for Nvidia to include, but I'll take it.
It doesn't fit on the top. :( From what I read as long as the reservoir is above the CPU it should be fine.
Thanks a lot! So i assume the speed difference between 3090 and 3080 is also not worth it. Guess I will order the 3080 then for hin :)
I kinda agree. It's dumb.
Increase size, increase power draw, increased performance… absurd.
Obviously if you make a GPU the size and price of a home appliance of corse it's going to have the best performance. But logistically it's stupid to be heading in this direction for PCs imo.
it's just dumb
Only the FE will fit in my Meshify C ;___;Reddit - Dive into anything

Guess it's Meshify 2/Compact time if I can't land that card next week RIP
Probably the water cooled versions. Like the MSI Surpim Liquid. At 280mm x 140mm x 43 mm, I haven't seen any smaller. But then you have to factor in mounting the radiator somewhere.
