What should I do if I can’t buy NVIDIA RTX 30 series graphics cards? It doesn’t matter, just make it yourself (error)! A Danish YouTuber made the world’s first NVIDIA RTX 4090 graphics card for April Fool’s Day a few days ago. Not only is it huge in size, it has up to 12 fans, and it can actually be turned on and run. Just when everything seemed to be over, a super funny accident suddenly occurred. “The wind was too strong during operation and the screen was accidentally cracked.” This collision immediately made the video a hit, with more than 700,000 views in just a few days.
Foreign YouTuber homemade RTX 4090 huge graphics card
Kasper Andersen of the Danish Captains Workspace channel has been sharing the computer hardware he made for April Fools’ Day every April 1 since 4 years ago, like last year’s Intel X graphics card、RTX 2090 from the year before last, this year it is a huge NVIDIA RTX 4090 graphics card, with a full 8 fans on the front and 4 fans on the back half:
According to his explanation, this RTX 4090 has 18.000 Cuda cores, 232 RT cores, 2.169MHz and 48Gb GDDR 7 memory, and the power part is 1,000W. Seeing this, you will definitely wonder which power supply can handle it. Kasper Andersen has thought about it and put the power connector (Power Connector) directly behind the graphics card:
He also disassembled it to let everyone see the inside of this graphics card. The PCB motherboard actually only occupies a small area:
After plugging in the motherboard, the ratio is much different:
What’s even more handsome is that this RTX 4090 also has an LED light design, which will light up after booting:
The screen was successfully lit, and the sound of 12 fans spinning at the same time was super loud:
When I entered the system and started running benchmark tests, a tragedy happened. The note originally on the monitor was blown off and sucked into the left fan, causing the wind speed on the right side to be too high. The motherboard was pushed and rotated and hit the screen instantly, destroying the screen (laughs). And judging from his reaction, this was really an accident:
What’s amazing is that he didn’t expect that he could use tape to restore the screen, so that the benchmark test could be completed:
In order to prevent another tragedy from happening again, he also used a lot of tape to secure the graphics card and motherboard:
In fact, he has also made an advanced version of RTX 4090 Ti, and the fan has grown exponentially. However, after booting up, the motherboard started to smoke, and there were some sparking sounds, and it felt like it was about to explode:
This year’s April Fool’s Day joke, Kasper Andersen should be able to take the first place, that collision makes everyone laugh. Below is the full video:
