First Quad-Slot RTX 3090 Ti Graphics Card Makes An Appearance

And it's from ZOTAC intended for Asia though. With a thickness of four PCIe slots, it is only equaled in girth by the RTX 3070 Noctua Edition.



On the surface, the PGF OC looks to be a beefier and more visually beautiful version of the RTX 3090 Ti AMP Extreme Holo that is available in the United States. It has a triple-fan cooler with two huge fans on the sides and a single smaller fan in the center. The front shroud has a modern silver-on-grey appearance that is enhanced by purple LED illumination. Despite its huge size, the card looks to feature one of the smallest PCBs of any RTX 3090 Ti, rivaled only by Nvidia's Founders Edition SKU. It measures 30.9 cm in length, compared to 31.3 cm for the Founders Edition (about 12.2 inches in either case). To be fair, that's a huge card, but it's not as enormous as some other models we've seen online, which may reach 13 inches or more. To the card's rear right, you can see a huge cutout in the backplate and PCB that allows air to travel directly through the card from the rear fan. This circular-shaped cut-out alone takes up about half of the card's area, and it's joined with a purple LED logo on the back. The backplate itself is rather aggressive, with extra angular cut-outs to the left to cool the PCB's rear components. Of course, we can't forget about how the card appears from the side, and with four slots, it's a chunky card to look at. The huge metal heatsink necessary to cool the 3090 Ti's 450W TDP is readily visible from the card's bottom. The shroud extends over the top of the card, displaying an aggressive-looking Zotac logo with purple LED accents to the left and right of the logo.

According to the spec sheet, the default power limit is "only" 450W, which is the same as the reference design. However, given the card's massive cooler, users are likely to be able to increase it to 500W or higher.
