NVIDIA's RTX 4000 series graphics cards make use of a cooling system known as the twin axial flow through thermals. This system operates by drawing air from the side and expelling it through the top and port sides. The series features an enhanced fan design, which marks an improvement over previous models.
Although these graphics cards lack RGB lighting, they are equipped with a white GeForce RTX logo, contributing to a refined appearance. In terms of connectivity, the RTX 4000 series includes HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 ports. These ports enable 8K 60 Hz HDR output through a single HDMI cable, despite the absence of the DP 2.1 standard.
The card's I/O panel comprises an air vent, connectors, and an aluminium fin stack within an alloy frame. The bulk of the cooling system's volume is occupied by the fin stack. The airflow mechanism involves one fan drawing air in and expelling it from the sides of the card, while another fan directs air through the fin stack and outwards.
The cooling system integrates six heat pipes that connect to a vapour-chamber plate, efficiently dissipating heat from the GPU and memory components. For power management, the cards feature a 12VHPWR power connector header, complemented by a converter cable linked to 8-pin connectors.
The product package includes relevant documentation and an adapter for converting 8-pin PCIe power inputs to a 12-pin power connector. Users are advised to maintain a 3-4cm clearance from the plastic connector and to avoid bending the cable near it for safe functionality.
