Product Showcase

The graphics card has been fitted with a Turing GPU based on 12nm FinFet architecture, and with 18.6 billion transistors, it has 4352 active shader/stream cores, 68 RT cores, and 544 Tensor cores. This card has 11GB of GDDR6. For those that wonder, the board is populated with GDDR6 memory from Micron. I already mentioned that there is no DVI connector.

You won't hear the fan noise in low-load situations as the fans do not spin when they are not needed (up-to roughly 60 Degrees C), once it reaches that temperatures the three fans will kick in, but they remain under 40 DBa. You can also select a silent mode though BIOS, which indeed is really silent. This will make the temps rise a bit, but at no cost to performance. We'll show you that in the temperature segment, of course.

The card has a 260~275 Watt rated TDP, 75 Watts is delivered through the PCIe slot, then 2x150 Watts through the 8-pin PEG (PCI Express Graphics) power connectors. The backplate has plenty of vents for some airflow, so that is looking good.

See that button, yeah so like not everybody likes RGB LEDs or simply do not like them when they go to sleep. Well, press it and you can select on/off. Also, and unfortunately the photo doesn't show it well, the upper left spot next to the NVLINK connector, holds a micro switch for BIOS. Here you can tune either performance or silent mode.
