The 900-watt RTX 4090 was real…until NVIDIA abandoned it: it was its heatsink

If NVIDIA released their RTX 4090 Founders Edition with a consumption of 450 W, as we analyzed exclusively in this house a few days ago, the reality is that the insane consumption that was expected at first was not a bluff. Yes, the intention was to launch a 900W model.

On a specialized forum video cards one that may have been a radiator NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4000, which was not shown and which, according to the statements, has a cooling capacity of up to 900W.

Yes, that’s double the TDP of the RTX 4090 FE, and while the current flagship’s Founders Edition cooler can handle up to 600W of power.that’s another 300 watts more, which is a huge difference.

It is clear that this is a heatsink for a GeForce RTX video card, and not a TITAN-class video card, which was also rumored a while ago, but according to the latest rumors, it was discontinued.

There are rumors on the forum that this particular heatsink could be for an even faster GeForce RTX 40 graphics card like the GeForce RTX 4090 Ti which will come with more cores and much faster GDDR6X video memory.


The 900W GeForce RTX that never saw the light of day is huge

We can’t confirm this, but another possibility is that this is a prototype RTX 40 series heatsink for internal testing only.

Speaking of the heatsink itself, the bezel is definitely larger and covers at least four slots.making it one slot more than the current RTX 4090 Founders Edition graphics card which takes up 3 slots.

The heatsink is a design monster with dual-fan axial technology., but it has more surface area for GPU cooling, video memory, and power. One unusual thing about the heatsink is that it has a mounting bracket and a cooling plate on the sides.

We are not sure what the purpose of this is. HVIDIA is experimenting with some unusual design options.both in post-production and pre-production of their Ampere and Ada video cards.

The RTX 30 series was the first to use a V-shaped PCB. and Ada GPUs refined the design and used a much more powerful cooler.

And in fact, Whether we will see a 900W GeForce RTX 40 graphics card is still unknown. although climate change is not very supportive of this release, and neither is NVIDIA.
