I wonder what the physical size of 3090 GPU would be if we was to turn back the clock and manufacture it @ 180nm same as a plenty 4 willemette ? Perhaps need a wheel barrow to move it around.

Very odd placement for 12 pin power.

Yeah the card looks cool. I can't wait to see some benchmarks also temp checking as well to see if it effecting any CPU cooling. Also dismantling these cards for water cooling isn't going to be easy they are going to be even more difficult than the 2xxx series cards.

Nvidia done very well on design on the 3080 I think, it looks amazing and I think will work very well^^ Nvidia 20XX(Ti) does look good too, but gets very hot on the backside after some use. When it comes to look I love the ones made by Nvidia<3

C´mon Hilbert, gives us poor folks some crumbs (benchies). We won´t tell anyone, you can trust us!:p Also the power cables look strange in that position, like some aftermarket kit was installed...

This card with only one fan is very ugly...

AMD will be crushed by this card. They bring nothing to the table again and again and again and again. Looks like they just cant or wont.

that ain't a 350 watt (plus) heat sink
Its a easy thing to do to bring cable around from one location to another. simple to mod the tooling to bring the 12 pin there. It wouldn't be hard i could even mod the tooling myself even after hardening with some spark erosion and plenty of die electric. Honestly this reference card will struggle to sell looking this ugly.

Great pictures (and sub-text) in this article Hilbert! I am sure many of us here are looking forward to your full review/reviews.

Amd will compete with 3080 and 3070 most likely. A 1500$ gpus are nvidia thing.

Great, a sign of a normal person, who isnt obsessed with every day GPU news or latest developments.:p

*Waits for AMD Navi. Hopes for massive price drops...somewhere, anywhere that would be an upgrade from GTX 1060 3GB* ...and dropping what used to be $199 before the "mining craze" from ~700 to ~500 is not even close! Not to mention, I'm pretty sure I'd need a new $100+ Power Supply (3x8 pin?!?!) just to plug one of these in.
