Are the PCBs of the Nvidia RTX3090 DI cards planned to accommodate the RTX4000?

Graphics cards NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti When our eyes are already set on future maps, it is rarely published Nvidia RTX4000. And revealed by Igor WALLOSEKIgor Labs PCB may be almost identical between the 3090 Ti and some future boards. Builders can reuse the same PCB, let’s see.

However, the displays on the various PCBs of the RTX 3090 Ti cards that we can find reveal just that. According to our colleague Igor Valosek, Nvidia Would have distributed information about future power standards to its partners, but would have provided a 600-watt specialized BIOS. All of this is aimed at initiating the development of future cooling systems for the next cards, codenamed Ada Lovelace as AD102.

Also, some manufacturers, such as ZOTAC, MSI or EVGA, have already integrated support for future chips in their PCBs. In fact, in the pictures below you can see that the locations for the power sockets are already planned, but not VRAMS. You can even look for missing MOFSETS locations. In short, all you have to do is put the Future chip in the PCB and the cards are ready! Does this mean that the 4000 series is coming soon? Note that according to the latest rumors The RTX 4090, RTX 4080 and RTX 4070 will arrive in September.

But one can also assume that brands are advancing without any information from NVIDIA. However, before the PCB was invented, the 3090 Ti Founders version had the same features. In fact, you can see that the slots are already ready to accommodate components in order to maximize the power of the PCB and thus the power of the chip. Until now this V-shaped PCB was unique to NVIDIA, but now some partner brands on the RTX 3090 Ti also use this design.

Of PCB MSI RTX 3090 Ti SUPRIM X Is it a little different. In fact, it has only one power connector. But the card is designed to support the 600W PCIe Gen5 standard if required.

But it does not end there! In fact, I was able to detect that the Igors Lab Power Connector is set to a power of 450W, but can be modified via the PJP1 jumper to keep it at 600W. For the time being the jumper is not fitted on the PCBs of the RTX 3090 Ti, but the location is well planned.

We already know that (even if it’s rumored). Nvidia’s next cards need 600 watts of power to operate. Also, custom cards can be larger than them, for which manufacturers must place at least two 16-pin connectors. Apparently, they are already starting to do that. We even watched Galax put two PCie Gen5 connectors on its RTX 3090 Ti HOF.
