The graphics card has been fitted with a Turing GPU based on 12nm FinFet architecture, and with 18.6 billion transistors, it has 4352 active shader/stream cores, 68 RT cores, and 544 Tensor cores. This card has 11GB of GDDR6. For those that wonder, the board is populated with GDDR6 memory from Micron. I already mentioned that there is no DVI connector.

You won't hear the fan noise in low-load situations as the fans do not spin when they are not needed (up-to roughly 60 Degrees C), once it reaches that temperatures the three fans will kick in, but they remain at merely an acoustic level of 37~38 DBa.

The card has a ~275 Watt rated TDP, 75 Watts is delivered through the PCIe slot, then 2x150 Watts through the 8-pin PEG (PCI Express Graphics) power connectors and then another 6-pin connector. The backplate has plenty of vents for some airflow, so that is looking good.

The right spot is the NVLINK connector, and you are probably wondering as it is blocked by the cooler right? So if you'd go SLI, how would you connect the bridge? Well, have a look at the next photo.

Here you can see, you can remove a piece of the shroud, allowing you to install an NVLINK bridge whenever needed or required. Simple and clever as it does not affect the looks of the cooler this way.
