The anticipated introduction date for NVIDIA's next-generation RTX 4000 series is approaching, with a broadcast of GeForce Beyond slated for the 20th of September at GTC. With time running out till we see what NVIDIA has in store for us, meanwhile, images of ZOTAC's variant of the RTX 4090 are already surfacing online, notably on Baidu.

The images depict a production run of ZOTAC's RTX 4090 graphics cards, which include a full cooling and shroud overhaul for NVIDIA's next-generation graphics cards. Gone are the standard straight, boxy designs of any high-end GPU; ZOTAC seems to be pursuing a more curved design approach this time, with more organic contours enclosing a more conventional heatsink.

The card features ZOTAC's IceStorm 3.0 cooling solution, which houses a triple-fan, triple-slot design that extends more than a third of its area over the PCB itself.
