The extreme overclocker Vince “Kingpin” Lucido has released the first images (or if you prefer, renderings) of the next top of the range EVGA, the RTX 3090 Ti K|NGP|N. Like the model based on the RTX 3090, also in this case we have a card characterized by a hybrid cooling system, with a fan dedicated to cooling the PCB and the liquid solution concentrated in collecting the heat produced by the main chips (GPU and memory).
A difference with the RTX 3090 concerns the aesthetics, with the heatsink cover in black-silver compared to the previous “total black” look. Furthermore, it appears that EVGA’s RTX 3090 Ti is equipped with the same LCD panel as the 3090 model useful for real-time monitoring of various operating parameters.
From the images you can see the presence of three DisplayPort and one HDMI port. The card also has a connector NVLink, like the RTX 3090 (absent on the rest of the RTX 3000 lineup). Finally, it should be noted that there does not seem to be any configuration with three 8-pin power connectors, which suggests that this model can be equipped with the new 16-pin PCIe 5.0 connector anticipated in recent weeks, capable of delivering up to 600W. Previous rumors even indicated the presence of 2 16-pin connectors, but they are to be taken with pliers.
As for the Technical specifications, waiting to know the operating frequencies of this particular model, we know that the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti has a fully active GA102 GPU with 10752 CUDA core, 336 Tensor core e 84 RT core, while the reference frequencies should be equal to 1560 MHz of base and 1860 MHz of boost. The RTX 3090 keeps you 24 GB of GDDR6X memory like the RTX 3090, but the chips are set to 21 Gbps instead of 19.5 Gbps. The memory bus also remains at 384 bits for a memory bandwidth of 1008 GB / s.
Recall that the RTX 3090 Ti, announced at CES 2022 earlier this month, was due to debut by the end of the month but, according to rumors, it would have been postponed to solve some hardware and software problems.
