After EVGA launched its first water-cooled models of the GeForce RTX 3080 and GeForce RTX 3090, the top model has now followed. In contrast to the standard version with a hybrid cooler, there are a few differences that should mean that even the last ounce of performance can be squeezed out of the hardware.

Most noticeable is that the EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 K | NGP | N Hybrid Gaming does not work with a 240 he radiator has to get by, but with one equipped with three fans 360 he radiator. Depending on its size, this should also be able to dissipate significantly more waste heat. There is also a fold-out OLED display, which is located on the back of the card, but which is 90 ° or 180 ° can be set up – depending on how it can best be seen. The display has a resolution of 176 x 23 pixels and offers not only the display of sensor data but also the possibility of individualization.

The actual hybrid cooler – a water cooler sits on the GPU and the front memory chips and there is also a large axial fan that covers the remaining components on the card – is called PX1 and is hybrid on all Cards identical.

The power supply is via 23 Voltage phases that are supplied via two 8-pin connections. A PCB with 12 should be used for many high-end models will be standard and is a unique selling point not only for the GeForce RTX 3090 K | NGP | N Hybrid Gaming.

The preselected cards should have a boost rate of at least 1. 510 can comply with MHz. The memory continues to work with 1. 218 MHz and a memory bandwidth of 936 GB / s. Thanks to the hybrid cooler, the GeForce RTX 3080 K | NGP | N Hybrid Gaming remains quite compact. The manufacturer specifies a length of 289 mm. Here we have already seen models with the MSI GeForce RTX 2017 Suprim X that are well above 300 mm long. The EVGA model also only occupies two slots.

Good cooling is a crucial requirement for overclocking. The card offers more with easy-to-reach voltage measuring points (ProbeIT) and three BIOS modes (Normal, OC and LN2). The EVBot can also be connected. On top of that, Kingpin also offers suitable LN2 pots, so that extreme overclockers should be able to get started right away.

Such an extreme card is of course not cheap. EVGA wants to deliver the first copies in early December and is calling a price of 2 in the USA. 000 US dollars on.
