Gigabyte shows RTX 3090 TURBO: With a dual-slot Blower Style cooler
We're not sure what to make of it, other then it's going to make quite a bit noise with a 350W GPU. Gigabyte will be outting a 1500 USD version RTX 3090 based on a blower-style cooler.
This Turbo Edition takes in air from the system and blows it out through the connectivity side of the card. it will be a bit of a bold move from GIgbayte, to release this. The card is 2 slots thick though, and only 26.6 cm long. It is fitted with two 8-pin PCIe power connectors and while GBT did not reveal clock frequencies, we expect it to run stock/reference numbers. Check 'r out below.

and we're supposed to listen to the advice of someone that doesnt understand/know
that the 12 vs 8 pin plug wont change how much power the card gets.
@krusher_r
lol. it matters, and quite a lot.
my LC 2080S is fast as most bottom tis that are aircooled.
to test the difference i even swapped cases, running the cpu rad on the side (so it wouldnt obstruct airflow),
three 140 (rear and top) while another three for intake on front/bottom (same size),
and the worst 2080 (12+2) under water was doing at least 10% better compared to 2080S with 16+4 phases and 3 fans.
not even with lots of airflow and gpu fans ramping up was the card anywhere close to the non-S i had with a 120mm aio.
the full block i have now gets me at least 100MHz under load, and couple of benches got me better results than any other 2080 S/non-S that were listed.
boost clocks start dropping once you hit 43*C, so yeah, the cooler (the case) the better,
so running this and a LC for the cpu setup to exhaust heat outside the case will be the closest you will get to LC the gpu.
unless the heatsink/cooler is as crappy as they have been in the past...

@Astyanax
no it doesnt, or the adapter from two 8 pin to 12 wouldnt work,
not even talking about the aic with two 8 pins on their cards.

Probably. I bought a blower 2080 Ti for my water block. Much cheaper (was used on ebay and works like a champ.)
Probably is for watercoolers. But wouldn't want to run a 3090 with such an air cooler.

Fantastic! Gigabyte made a card for me! I love these blower designs, way better than the dual fan or tripple fan setups.
Was worried id have to buy a tripple fan version and have to add a waterblock on it to exhaust the heat out of my case. lol
