Geforce RTX 4090: Custom graphics card from Lenovo spotted in quad-slot design

After there had been leaks of custom designs from Zotac and Gigabyte in the run-up to the market launch of the new Geforce RTX 4090, which was rumored for October, an image of a model from Lenovo has now also leaked. Although Lenovo is not necessarily known as a classic board partner for custom designs on the DIY market, in the case of the Radeon RX 6900 XT Legion, for example, it already had an in-house production for the in-house complete PCs up its sleeve.

Appropriately, the Geforce RTX 4090 can also be seen in a Legion PC in the Twitter leak here, whereby the angular design of the Legion graphics cards is apparently retained, while four slots are occupied due to a triple fan cooler with a particularly bulky heat sink will. Accordingly, there is comparatively little space down to the power supply cover of the apparent Micro-ATX case – not to mention the length to the front.

While the Geforce RTX 4090 lettering, which is also obvious, is pixelated, there is also a single 12VHPWR power connector of the ATX 3.0 specification for the new generation of PCI-E 5.0 graphics cards, which theoretically has 600 watts can deliver. The RTX 4090 is said to only make use of 450 watts of this, although it according to Videocardz.com Reportedly there should be “a lot of room to increase the power limit”.

First the top

In all likelihood, the Geforce RTX 4090 is the preliminary flagship of the upcoming Geforce series from the designated “Ada” generation with the architecture of the same name, ahead of the RTX 4080 and Co. models that are said to follow a little later, and is said to have an AD102 GPU at 16,384 CUDA cores along with 24 GiB GDDR6X memory, but according to the rumor mill, this is not yet the potential full expansion (128 SMs instead of 144 SMs), which leaves a possible Ti model open at a later date. Solid information about the RTX 4090 is expected at Nvidia’s GTC in-house exhibition from September 19th to 22nd.
