GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming OC 24G Graphics Card, 3X WINDFORCE Fans, Manufactured by NVIDIA, DisplayPort & HDMI - Video Output Interface, 24GB 384-bit GDDR6X, GV-N4090GAMING OC-24GD Video Card

𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: Amazing. Well-built. Less offensively priced than much of the competition. Not loud, and despite a bit of coil whine during certain loading screens, it hasn't been noticeable while playing. As someone who wanted to avoid coil whine and bought this card for that reason, I'm fine with it. It's a real, solid 4090 for not much above MSRP, with performance and silent BIOS modes. -------------------------------------------------- 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: I'm currently running this in my nearly 4-year old build, with the intention of upgrading everything else around the card after a year or so of saving. Even on an i9 9900k, it offers massive gains over my 2080 ti in any scenario where I'm not limited by my CPU or 3200mhz ram speed. For example, Hogwarts Legacy doesn't see too much improvement (it's notoriously taxing on your whole system and not the most optimized), but Horizon Zero Dawn at native 1440p Ultra went from 90fps on an RTX 2080 ti to 155fps (monitor cap) on the 4090. It's still only around 75% GPU usage, 63C and drawing roughly the same power as my 2080 ti at around 250W. That's over a 70% uplift for 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, a dozen degrees cooler, and a lot quieter due to much lower fan speed. Aside from obviously flourishing at 4k, this card could do a lot more than that at 1440p with a cutting-edge CPU, RAM and a 240hz monitor. It is a BEAST, and with 24GB of VRAM it may actually stay powerful for a few years. Still, let's be real; the 4090 is overpriced and I can't give it good marks for value even though Gigabyte is being really cool here compared to the competition. I stand strong in my belief that the whole pricing structure of the 40-series is one tier too high; the FE should retail around $1249-$1299, which would put this one around $1349-$1399. Still, this isn't Gigabyte's fault, it's Nvidia all the way, and I appreciate Gigabyte offering this for a comparatively "reasonable" price. If you decided (like I did) that the 4090 is the only card that makes sense to buy for longevity's sake—or you simply want the best—this is a great option.

Power hungry? We already know that. Superior deep learning (and gaming) performance? We already know that. Will turn your computer case into an oven if it's running at full power for a long time? We already know that. I mean, it has an official power draw of 450 Watts, so that's just what 450 Watts of power, 450 Watts of compute, and 450 Watts of heat can do! What I didn't expect when buying it was how large it is. Unlike other 3-fan GPUs before it, this won't fit into a full-tower case with a 3.5" drive bay beside it. I had to shift my drive bay's position and uninstall the 5.25" bay to be able to install this GPU, which was okay, since I don't use the 5.25" drive bay anyway. However, I would've had more issues if I had a smaller case or if my bay wasn't removable, so my advice to readers is to please pay attention to dimensions when buying this. Overall 100% satisfied with what I got. I got exactly what I paid for and it performed just as I wanted it to.

I build a new computer for flight simming and as flight sims are very demanding on computers, I wanted the best video card I could buy, within reason. The 4090 at the time of purchase was the top card. Although there are different manufacturers that make 4090s, I decided on this one from Gigabyte. I couldn't be happier. I have used it for quite some time now and it is pretty quiet for a very powerful card. It does get warm sometimes but that is to be expected. I have never had it overheat or even come close to doing so. I paired this with a good processor and I am able to max out Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, DCS and now Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. I would recommend this card.

I have had absolutely no problems with my card. I've had it almost a year now and it plays anything on max settings on my 1440p monitor. I was worried that the card could catch fire. I use a power supply that is designed to work with the 40 series. From what I could tell all the or most of the issues with the new power system is from people buying power cable adapters and using those instead of buying a new power supply that is designed to use that type of cord. Now 90 % of the 4090s do not have a safety fuse on the dye to protect your card. This one does not have it, I believe it was an MSI card. I was surprised to learn that even after all the cards catching fire or shorting out parts that only one company (MSI) decided to stop and actually do something that could help protect their customers investment by adding a fuse. and I believe that only a certain version of the msi 4090 has that fuse. All and all I'm happy my card has no coil wine and works as needed every day every time without fail. (Just dont buy gigabyte power supplies they use random parts seriously watched a vid where several identical psu's were opened up and they all had mis matching parts.)

I noticed that the gpu looked a little bent at the end, but ignored it because gpu sag usually doesnt matter all that much. I installed it and it turned on, however the display wouldn't connect. After a few hours of troubleshooting I took a look at the pins directly connected to the gpu and it was missing part of the metal on the nvidia side that connects to the gpu. I checked the inside of the connection on the gpu and cord to look if it got scrapped off by me, but they were both clean. This was the first time I had unplugged it after I initially did so in my mind it had to have been sent this way.

Loves: - Power - Thermal stability - Run everything with highest settings - ML performance Dislikes: - Way too expensive - Bulky, had to buy a larger case to fit it - Ships with a horrible power connector With the last item, it's really critical that, if you have a case that fits with minimal clearance to the edge of the GPU, the power port will be facing right at the PC case. The cord that this GPU ships with comes straight out, forcing you to bend it at 90 degrees to fit. This places stress on the power connector and the cord, and could be responsible for some of the arcing / cable fires that have been reported. Instead of bending the cable, I purchased this: JOYJOM PCI-e 5.0 12VHPWR 16 Pin Right Angle Adapter Female to Male Extension Cable, 16AWG 600W 12VHPWR 90 Degree Adapter for Graphic Card GPU 12+4pin RTX 3090Ti 4070Ti 4080 4090 (Type B) This extension cable is designed with a 90 degree connector, and solves all the problems. Gigabyte should really be shipping this. Or at least, don't ship their existing cable, and drop the price.

I had an issue with the RGB flickering really badly when I first turned it on. I did some research and found that the RGB on this card doesn't stay on the whole time the PC is on. What you have to do is go into the settings of the card and turn it to a minimum fan RPM to make it reach the threshold of what will make it light up. This thing is so powerful that it barely, if at all, turned the fans on enough to trigger the lighting effects, because I just couldn't find a game demanding enough to utilize a majority of the card. Gave it four stars because that issue isn't presented in any easily addressable way, but the performance is perfect so far after about 2 weeks.

So I got this card when it first came out. I actually had to get a different case, because the 4090s are so very big....and not in length, as was typically issue with GPUs - but the height of the card. How tall it is. Because the 12vHPWR plug port is at the top of the card, and you can't really bend that cable because of the issue around the plugs melting if you don't get a good seat on that power plug - I actually had to get a different case to give me more room. And custom soft sleeved power cable that is more flexible than my stock PSU's cable. Even with that, about 7 months in - I start having issues. After diagnosing, my power cable had come slightly unseated at one end and melted the plug. It was the cable side of the plug, but it caused a little damage to the cards 12vHPWR port. It still worked, but I didn't feel good about the longevity of it. I opened a case with Gigabyte, they issued an RMA, and about 2 weeks later I had a card with a new power port.

Performance is exactly what we'd expect from an RTX 4090

Hice upgrade de mi pc y subí de una 2080 súper a esta 4090 y la verdad no me arrepiento. Antes tenía que bajar los settings al mínimo en juegos competitivos para tener framerates estables pero ahora puedo tener lo mejor de dos mundos (fps y calidad de juego). Además en juegos de historia como Cyberpunk puedo subir todo a Extreme y la tarjeta como si nada. Si quieres lo mejor de lo mejor, esta es la opción. Esta tarjeta es un monstruo físicamente, ocupa 3 slots en el gabinete y trae su kit para nivelarla que ayuda bastante a que no se venza por el peso. Además el sistema RGB la neta se ve muy bien aquí, aunque me sacó un susto porque la configuración que tengo hace que no prendan los leds hasta que los ventiladores están en movimiento, y como a esta tarjeta le sobra enfriamiento, no prenden los ventiladores luego luego y por ende los rgbs se mantenían apagados, pensaba que estaban descompuestos o algo pero no. Me preocupaba un poco la polémica que ha habido acerca del cable de 12 pines que se quemaba pero estuve investigando y es cuestión de no doblarlo de la base del cable y asegurarse que está bien enchufado oyendo el click después de presionar fuertemente (Gamer’s Nexus tiene un video al respecto que pueden ver para guiarse) Estoy muy feliz con mi nueva tarjeta, fue una inversión fuerte pero vale la pena al poder jugar todo lo que quiera con los mejores settings.

After coming to terms with the enormous heft of this video-card I was impressed by the build quality, robustness, fan arrangement and the cooling system. The task of installing it in my Phanteks Enthoo Pro was a little challenging and involved removing the drive cages. This was the only way to get the card into the Asus ROG Apex Maximus z690. This motherboard has a strong PCIe slot and the card shows no evident sag. I will however add a support. The generational performance leap is truly astonishing and leaves my RTX 3090 in the rear view mirror. The card may not be overclocked by much but that doesn’t bother me in the way it might bother real hard-core enthusiasts. It runs exceptionally cool even under heavy benchmark loading (only once topping 70C) and is quiet too. My system is powered by a Corsair 1200 AXi PSU, now has an i9 13900K processor and in the heaviest of loads pull 740 watts peak but typically around 400. I have not had any issues with the 12vhpwr adaptor and have done regular thermal measurements that have been well within acceptable limits. I am truly impressed by this card, the first Gigabyte card I’ve owned, and certainly recommend it. I went with the first available card, not the one that I had first in mind, but am delighted by the result. I appreciated the 4-year warranty and ease of registration too.

Cyberpunk 2077 in 4k at max settings and almost 100fps!! Path tracing! If you have the budget (and a case big enough to fit this behemoth) you won't be disappointed.
