The size of GPU’s is getting ridiculous! Most cases won’t be able to hold current gen GPU’s.

NVIDIA has really ran out of ideas

¿Couldn’t they just buy Creative and integrate sound processing into their cards or something?

And what exactly would that accomplish?

More stable framerates (Or higher framerates in poorly optimized titles like SW Jedi Survivor)

But sound processing has zero impact on your FPS. That stopped being a thing decades ago. You are talking BS.

Yes, the 4-slot video card does cause concerns and problems. The bigger problem is the weight of it. If those cards get released they will have to come with something that pulls up the backend and side of it to take the strain of the weigh off of the PCI slot.

A card like that does not have the interest to make them worth selling with potentially 48GB. A full Titan version of a 4090 with all of the extras for working with production and studio software would suffice.

Gawddamn…. It’s looking like we’re gonna be cranking up outboard motors like a fishing boat to power the next generation of these cards…

When you need that much cooling, it’s time to switch to a liquid cooler.
I think the 2.5 slot coolers are already too large, this is just ridiculous.
