RTX 3090 vs RTX 2080 Size Comparison

A recent Internet leak showed the appearance and size of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090. The conclusion: the world has never seen such a giant before.

How to fit something like this into your PC case?

Recently, we wrote about leaked prices of GeForce RTX 3000. The info was provided by Twitter user GarnetSunset, who deals with tech-related rumors. He also presented two photos that finally showed us how GeForce RTX 3090 (Nvidia's future performance leader) looks like live, compared to GeForce RTX 2080, one of the best GPUs on the market today. What's there to say, just take a look at this giant.

The exact dimensions of Nvidia's upcoming hardware are unknown, but we just need to compare it with the height, length, and width of GeForce RTX 2080, which is 11.57 cm by 26.674 cm and 2 expansion slots. The first two will certainly increase by a few centimeters, and GarnetSunset has also confirmed that RTX 3090 will take one more slot. If you would like to know more about the specs of the youngest member of Ampere family, have a look here. Among other things, you will find out more about the card's bus bandwidth and plans to develop GDDR6X memory.

According to the leaks, the net price of GeForce RTX 3090 will be 1400 dollars. The above photographs are impressive, but most likely Nvidia will not be the only one to surprise the world with the size of its new devices. Soon AMD will join the game (it's probably a matter of a few weeks) with its 'Big Navi' Radeon. Then we will be able to finally see what style and average size the next-gen GPUs will adopt.

His adventure with journalism began with a personal blog, the name of which is no longer worth quoting. Then he interpreted Iranian dramas and the Joker, writing for cinematography journal, which, sadly, no longer exists. His writing credentials include a degree in film studies, but his thesis was strictly devoted to video games. He has been writing for Gamepressure since March 2020, first writing a lot about movies, then in the newsroom, and eventually, he became a specialist in everything. He currently edits and writes articles and features. A long-time enthusiast of the most bizarre indie games and arthouse cinema. He idolizes surrealism and postmodernism. He appreciates the power of absurdity. Which is probably why he also tried soccer refereeing for 2 years (with so-so results). He tends to over-philosophize, so watch out.
