Brazilians make a 'RTX 2080 Ti Super' by fitting it with faster GDDR6

Brazilians make a 'RTX 2080 Ti Super' by fitting it with faster GDDR6

Brilliant stuff, as-if the GeForce 2080 Ti isn't fast enough, we all heard about the rumors about that Super model. Well, what if you supercharge it yourself? Your get your SMT gun and heater, remove the GDDR6 DIMMs, and replace them with faster ones :-)

So here's what three musketeers in Brazil did, they removed 16 Gbps GDDR6 from a Galax RTX 2080 cards, and then planted that same GDDR6 memory on a GeForce GTX 2080 Ti which normally has 14 Gbps GDDR6. Surprisingly enough, that actually worked.

 

 

Obviously I need to make a few remarks here, there is no fully enabled GPU, ergo the shader processor count is the same (which would be different for a Super model). Secondly, there's not one 2080 Ti card we tested, that could not get its memory tweaked at 16 Gbps. In fact the MSI lighting we clocked at 16,548 MHz (effective data-rate). So it's all a little relative. But .. they 16 Gbps GDDR6 memory, can be tweaked as well, and they ended at 17,200 MHz and that is 3,200 MHz more than the memory that is on a standard 2080 Ti. An higher frequency was not possible on that memory because the memory controller would not allow this, according to the modders.  Btw I think I recognize some faces, at least one of them works for Galax and it does seem and feel a bit like a Galax viral/promotional. But still, what the guys did was .. yeah crazy, but we like crazy :)

That is just cool,wish I had the solder skills to do that.

With current price of gpus, i would make sense, make them modular and enable at least memory chip upgrading replacement and adding.. we already had possibility to add more memory until 1997 or something like that.. and why no make gpu replacable too? So videocard would be something like 2nd level motherboard.

It would be even more ecological too.. but wait, profits would be less.. so Nvidia or ATI would not ever enable it.. it would ends like modular cell phones in /dev/null
