I had a lot of reactions about that.

I don't remember reading anything about that. Could you post a link to that rumor?

Here you go:

WCCTech would have the complete lineup so far with this card included:

This card should be a Radeon Pro instead of a gaming GPU however. But that doesn't mean there's no chance that AMD won't release an offshot of that card to the gaming market later down the road if it really is a Radeon Pro.

Thank you.

I don't remember that rumor but maybe it's because they assumed it was a Radeon Pro, and not a gaming card, that made me forget it.

It's interesting, but we'll see if it's real, or if it's a gaming product.

I'm going to play devil's advocade here: the 3090Ti launched with the same 16-pin connector and adapters, and it actually used more power than a 4090, yet we didn't have so many stories about this at the same time. So yeah, the adapters may not be good enough, but there seems to be something else at play. I wonder if the fixed transients, that cause smaller power spikes at the expense of them lasting a bit longer, may have something to do with it.

In any case, it may be a good idea to way until you can get a new PSU with a 16-pin power conector before getting a 4090 card. You may save yourself some troubles.

To my knowledge there was not a single adapter for 3090TI that was not 3x8pin too 12 pin while the 4090 come with a 4x8pin to 12 pin so that would lead me to believe that the 4090 is capable of pulling a lot more power then 3090TI through the 12 pin.  Do you know of a case 3090TI using a 4x8 pin to 12 pin adapter?

You're right, I haven't found a single one that does come with a 4x8-pin adapter, at least not a reviewed one. Strange given that some of them used almost 500W.
