Review and testing of the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC graphics card
This time, the top-end video card from Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC participates in our test . This video card is based on the Ada Lovelace architecture, operates at a frequency of 2500 MHz, has 16384 stream processors and 24 gigabytes of video memory.
APPEARANCE AND CHARACTERISTICS |
This subsection of our review reveals the main aspects of the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC , such as appearance and hardware configuration.
APPEARANCE AND CHARACTERISTICS |
The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC video card comes in the largest box of all video cards sent to us earlier.
The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC kit includes the graphics card itself, a power adapter, and a bracket to support the graphics card.
On the side we have a 12-pin power connector.
The thickness of the video card is quite appropriate for its status as a heavyweight...
The video card has 4 video outputs - 1 HDMI and 3 DisplayPort, all of which support 8K resolution.
On the reverse side, there is a rather immodest cut-out for greater airflow capacity, in general, the design is the same for all 4090 ...
In terms of size, the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC graphics card is somewhat more massive than the Palit Gamerock GEFORCE RTX 4090 24 GB and ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 OC.
Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC is built on the AD102-300 GPU with 16,384 CUDA cores. The frequency limit of this instance is 2699 MHz, but in games it reaches 2775 MHz. The video card received 24 GB of GDDR6X memory with a frequency of 21 GHz. The memory bandwidth is 1TB/s.
HEATING AND POWER CONSUMPTION |
As for overclocking, the results are presented below:
With these parameters, the video card remains stable and the frequency of the graphics chip in games reaches 2.9 GHz.
The gluttony test of the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC was carried out in conjunction with the Intel Core i9 13900K 3.2 GHz + Z690 AORUS MASTER in a closed Thermaltake Core V51 case:
In the "Donut" in stock mode, the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC shows 63 degrees, the consumption is 440 watts. From the outlet, the system consumes about 590 watts.
In overclocking, the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC temperature already reaches 69 degrees, the consumption is 550 watts. With the socket and the system consumes about 700 watts.
In Cyberpunk 2077 in stock mode, the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC shows 60 degrees, consumption is 430 watts. From the outlet, the system consumes about 680 watts.
In Cyberpunk 2077, overclocking the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC shows 62 degrees, consumption is 500 watts. From the outlet, the system consumes about 750 watts.
At the moment, this is the quietest and coldest of all tested GeForce RTX 4090.

A Plague Tale Requiem |
Testing took place at maximum quality settings with DLSS. Our test section.
In A Plague Tale Requiem, the situation is quite similar to previous games - GEFORCE RTX 4090 is in the favourites.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla |
Testing was carried out at maximum quality settings. Our test section.
In Assassin's Creed Valhalla, all GeForce RTX 4090s are at the top.
Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 |
Testing was carried out at maximum quality settings. Our test section.
Well, in Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, all GeForce RTX 4090s are perfect for 4K 144 Hz.
CONCLUSION |
Well, based on the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC testing , it can be seen that all three GeForce RTX 4090 models show almost identical results in games. From this, it should be concluded that when choosing a manufacturer, one should aim not at speed, but at the quality of the product and its aspects such as noise and heating.
In this regard, the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 GAMING OC showed the best results - it has the most massive cooling system, which allows you to show fairly low temperatures in games and the noise level of the video card never goes over uncomfortable values for hearing.
Advantages
- great performance
- low heating level
- low noise level
Cons
- size
- small overclocking potential
