Enthusiasts have created a unique graphics card, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 SUPER, combining RTX 3090 Ti and RTX 4090 components. The result exceeds expectations, demonstrating impressive performance and efficient cooling .
Enthusiast Supercard
Innovative approach to creation
YouTube- The Tclab channel presented an unusual project - a homemade NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 SUPER video card. The GALAX GeForce RTX 3090 Ti HOF model was taken as a basis, which was equipped with an NVIDIA AD102 graphics processor of the Ada Lovelace architecture and high-speed GDDR6X memory.
Design Features
The choice fell on the GALAX RTX 3090 Ti HOF OC LAB because of its water block, which provides excellent cooling without the use of exotic components. Modifications included the installation of an AD102 chip, 24 Gbps GDDR6X memory, changes to memory mounting, and the addition of a controller to supply 1.2 V to the processor.
Unique Components
Each GDDR6X memory module has been carefully hand-selected to ensure maximum quality. Micron (161-0480-900) ZF series microcircuits were used. The cooling system has been improved: thermal putty was applied to each memory chip and a high-quality thermal interface for the GPU.
Cooling system
Cooling is provided by two 360 mm radiators in a push/pull configuration and a water pump with a capacity of 234 l/h . At an ambient temperature of 18.7°C and a coolant of 20°C, even when overclocked to over 3 GHz, the video card temperature did not exceed 54-55°C.
Impressive results
In the Unigine Superposition 8K test, the GPU was clocked at 3105 MHz and the memory was clocked at 12900 MHz, which ensured module speeds of up to 25.8 Gbit/s. The final performance was 39% higher than the regular RTX 4090 with overclocking and 16.5% higher without it, approaching the expected performance of the future NVIDIA RTX 5090.

Wow, wow! I'm shocked at what enthusiasts are capable of. Building your own RTX 4090 SUPER is simply incredible! 🤯 I wonder how much more powerful it is than the original 4090?
Hans
Really impressive! What's especially interesting is that they used an AD102 chip and GDDR6X memory. I'd love to see benchmarks of this beast 🦁 Isabella, what kind of performance boost do you think they got?
Isabella
Hans, I would guess that the increase could be around 10-15%? Considering that they hand-selected the best memory chips, the result should be impressive. Although, of course, this is still an amateur project, not mass production 🏭
Pierre
I was most impressed by the cooling system! Two 360 mm radiators in push/pull are a serious approach. I wonder what temperatures they got under load? 🌡️
Viktor
Pfft, another useless toy for geeks. Why is such power needed? To watch YouTube videos in 8K? It would be better to do something useful, rather than waste time and resources on yet another fancy video card.
Sofia
Viktor, don't be such a skeptic! This is progress, innovation! Such experiments move the industry forward. Who knows, maybe thanks to such enthusiasts we will soon see the official RTX 4090 SUPER? 🚀
Hans
Sofia, I completely agree! Such projects also inspire other enthusiasts. Pierre, about temperatures - with such cooling they should be very low. I think even under full load it’s unlikely to exceed 50°C 🧊
Isabella
Guys, did you notice that they used a board from the 3090 Ti? This is brilliant! Hans, Sofia, do you think such modifications can be carried out at home or is it too difficult and risky? 🛠️
