The reference 4090 cards have a maximum boost frequency of 2.61 GHz, while the Phantom GS had a boost rate of 2.615 MHz and a base clock that hovers around 2.235 MHz. Also, be warned that the device emits a great deal of heat; you will need a well-ventilated computer with a front intake and a top exhaust. The power limiter gives this card a tad more leech, but more on that in our overclocking segment.

A sleek shroud with a dark finish covers the heatsink array, and as you will see in the following section, it performs a fantastic job of maintaining low temperatures.  

As stated, it weighs just inder 2 kilogrammes; thus, be careful when installing it, the PCIe slot could easily break.

Gainward offers dual BIOS that has preset quiet and performance (default) settings. However, the clock rates are different, the silent BIOS follows reference clocks. Silent mode reduces noise marginally at the expense of slightly higher temperatures; given the results you're about to seem we say leave it at default. 

Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4 and one HDMI 2.1, as expected, and yeah this is properly one of the longest cards we've seen in a while 33cm.
