Is this the RTX 4090 Ti / RTX Titan?
Hardware leaker MEGAsizeGPU shows pictures of a possible RTX 4090 Ti / RTX Titan. The special feature: the board of the four-slot graphics card is positioned vertically instead of horizontally as usual.
It has been clear since the RTX 4090 was announced that there is more to come. The built-in AD102 graphics chip only utilises 128 of 144 possible streaming multiprocessors (SM). Leaker MEGAsizeGPU has published images of a possible RTX 4090 Ti or RTX Titan on Twitter - the name of the unannounced card is still unclear.
The images show that the card has four slots and is therefore around eight centimetres thick. The connections are arranged vertically instead of horizontally, just like the circuit board. The PCB is therefore aligned along the thickness instead of the usual width. This could be necessary for cooling, as the card is likely to have an even higher power consumption than the RTX 4090.
If Nvidia maxes out all 144 possible SMs, that would be an increase of twelve per cent. In addition, the power consumption could rise to 600 watts. That would be the maximum that is possible with the 12VHPWR connector. For the RTX 4090, Nvidia specifies a power consumption of 450 watts. Faster memory with 24 instead of 21 gigabits per second as in the RTX 4090 is also conceivable, and the size of the memory is also likely to increase from 24 to 48 GB GDDR6X.
As always, such leaks should be treated with caution. The RTX 4090 Ti / RTX Titan has not yet been officially announced.
