Nvidia RTX 3090 Founders Edition PCB leaks
Nvidia RTX 3090 Founders Edition PCB leaks
Here, we can see the scale of Nvidia’s RTX 3090 Founders Edition, as it is clearly taller than a standard PCIe slot in height, and features a cooler design which extends beyond the length of the PCB. We can see that the RTX 3090 will feature a large die size, and support up to 12 GDDR6X memory modules and that the PCB supports dual-sided memory.Â
At the base of the graphics card sits a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, and at the top, we can see Nvidia’s new NVLINK/SLI connectors. These SLI protrusions will be exclusive to Nvidia’s RTX 3090 graphics cards, making multi-GPU support a feature that’s exclusive to the ultra-high-end market.Â
Nvidia plans to reveal its RTX 30 series later today as part of a “Geforce Special Event” live stream. This stream can be viewed here at 5 PM BST.Â

Below are the leaked specifications of Nvidia’s RTX 3090 and RTX 3080, both of which are due to be announced today. Note that there is more to a GPU architecture than clock speeds and CUDA core counts. Architecture matters, and you can be sure that Nvidia has more to offer than a simple boost in CUDA core counts.Â
