Hardware leaker MEGAsizeGPU (opens in new tab) has shared a photograph of a mysterious quad-slot cooler for one of Nvidia's upcoming GeForce RTX gaming graphics cards. However, the jury is still out whether it's for the rumored GeForce RTX 4090 Ti or Titan RTX Ada.

The cooler boasts a gold theme, implying it's probably the Titan RTX Ada. The I/O bracket features four display outputs stacked vertically. The display connectors on the Titan RTX Ada include one HDMI port and three DisplayPort outputs. It's the first time we've seen such a design from Nvidia. It implies that the chipmaker is likely placing the PCB in a vertical orientation for the mysterious graphics card, which has been christened "The Beast." The small sticker on the I/O bracket carries the "PG137" PCB board number, coinciding with the information from reputable leaker kopite7kimi (opens in new tab) from July last year.

"The Beast" reportedly features the AD102 silicon that Nvidia currently uses in the GeForce RTxX 4090 and RTX 6000 Ada . Similar to the latter, the upcoming Ampere-powered graphics card will feature the full AD102 die, having up to 18,176 CUDA cores at its disposal. It will also sport 48GB of lighting-fast 24 Gbps GDDR6X memory. According to kopite7kimi, the graphics card has a total board power (TBP) of around 800W, which explains the robust quad-slot cooling system. For comparison, the GeForce RTX 4090 has 600W TBP, meaning the Titan RTX Ada has a 33.3% higher TBP. With an 800W TBP, the test board for the Titan RTX Ada allegedly draws its power from dual 16-pin PCIe power connectors (12VHPWR).

Despite all the leaks, there's no firm date on when we could see the Titan RTX Ada. However, the recently leaked photographs suggest that the graphics card has existed in Nvidia's labs for some time. So the chipmaker is just waiting for the right time to unleash the beast.
