AIB cards are definitely big but they aren't that much bigger than previous gen
ASUS ROG Strix 4090
357.6 x 149.3 x 70.1mm
EVGA 3090 FTW3
300x136.75x 2.75 slots (unsure what the mm is)
I think it consumes over 3 slots now and is essentially a bit bigger from the over the top AIB cards. If the performance gains are to be believes I think most people who messed with premium tier 3090's won't have an issue fitting in a 4090. I have a shit ton of room to replace mine with using my Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL
Beat me to it.I predict that within 10 years, computers will be twice as powerful, ten thousand times larger, and so expensive that only the 5 richest kings of Europe will own them
Yes, and people will accept it and Nvidia will continue to profit.Feel like we are going backwards, should be smaller and more power/cooling efficient, not the other way around.
this makes me sad
Actual video for any doubters:Are these photoshopped? These things can't seriously be the actual size of the cards are they?
Lmao!
This one at least should fit all mid tower cases with 240mm rad support.
I mean, rich folks buy gaudy shit all the time. Plus, these heavily ballyhoo'd halo cards help build the brand so kids will end up deciding on which 1630 they want based on who has the dopest 4090.He is 100% right trashing some of the designs.
Teens aren't buying $1700 GPUs, ROG and Aorus got to stop marketing it to them with these plastic shrouds trying to look cool. They look like toys.
50,000 hoursWhat's the lifespan on the usual AIO cooler and how difficult are they to replace?
"That thing was too big to be called a card. Too big, too thick, too heavy, and too rough, it was more like a large hunk of silicon."One of my employees showed me one of these unboxing videos and I thought it was a gag. Like an SNL parody. He has to show me two more before I accepted it as real.
I'm not a PC gamer so I had no idea these things were getting so big. Can't really call it a "card" anymore.

Yeah I have a 3090 like that and it is not the best design for managing the tubes. They stick out about 5-6cm. There are other AIO models that don't have a fan on the body and put the tubes at the end of the card.unless the tubes are super flexible i worry there's not enough clearance from the side of the case
What will they say? Can you sum it up for us in a word? Or a sound?It's bigger than that. It's large. The gpu race will simply have to be rewritten.
