Well with the AD102-450-A1 32k cuda core card cancelled, yes the ES card was very real reviewers finally got the chip model leaked to them. So I'm the greatest bullcrap artist in history with great guessing, am a time traveler or know people. I will stick with time traveler to keep it interesting. I do agree with the why it was cancelled, but man that thing was really the real beyond fast..
Then AMD not bringing anything to the table on the 4090 performance end the 26k cuda core ES card ASUS was working on got canned as well no point.

I did try to get a Nvidia 4090 founders edition sadly we have had zero that I have seen in West Palm Beach FL, the only card Bestbuy will not ship from another store from the 40 series. Already saw the 4090 TI ES for retail and the MSRP's from the same sources I saw all the other cards. I hope pricing changes who knows what will happen between now and then.

I broke down saw the ASUS Rog Strix OC RTX 4090 for 1999.99 and jumped on it. should have it on Tuesday, still would have rather had a founders at MSRP. Wish it was EVGA, that sendoff video was amazing by gamers nexus. Sadly that is not an option, could not get my hands on a founders locally. So my first ASUS card in nearly two decades.

    Well colored me impressed at 3440x1440 on this card it does smoke my 3090 TI at this resolution same settings no frame generation. I think the 42 fps was when the bench loaded I didn't see it on the bench fps counter or on afterburner's OSD.

    Well the Cablemod 90-degree adapter won't do it, I need a new case or a vertical mount...

    That sucks the side panel is so close. It's a nice case. Enjoy your new GPU. :)

    Big ol card there, I've decided my O11D is an open air case because to the block fittings, which is why I used the XL for my wife's build
