OPEN BOX - ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 OG OC Edition Gaming Graphics Card

This tuf 4090 has a longer pcb than I guess the tuf original idk. But it won’t work.

The card to a godly beast and runs all my 4K games maxed out. A little pricey but the card is a solid beast

Built my first PC in about a decade or two, last one was windows XP. Mainly wanted to drive triple 42" 4k monitors for sim racing. Coupled this with a i9 13th gen cpu in a Montech AIR 903 Base case, The case has 9 fans in including the the 3 for the AIO. I have the GPU mounted traditionally, there are two intake case fans just below the GPU, 3 intake in the front of the case, 1 rear extraction and fan, the the 3 fans for the AIO extracting. The hottest I've seen the GPU is 59 degrees celsius testing with Cyberpunk. Now I only have one LG 4k C2 43" monitor at the moment, waiting for them to go on sale again to get the other two to complete the sim setup. I have an adapter from display port to HDMI, then a good quality 8k HDMI cable from the adapter to tv. Once in a while I will have the sound and black screen for a split second, more annoying than anything else. Does it frequently with Cyberpunk and infrequently with sim racing with everything max out. Still investigating why. I do not hear any coil whine that some reported, but that might be my hearing not as good as it used to be. Cons: Did not come with a support bracket, luckily my case did, it was sagging and needs a brace. Lastly and this is nothing to do with the card this is more on Amazon and Nvidia, you're supposed to get a coupon code for a free game, "Get Overwatch2 with select GeForce RTX 40", never received my coupon, game would have been more my son than myself and would have been nice, supposed to be free. Amazon customer support have no idea what I'm talking about, supposed to be supplied by retailer, checked junk mail etc, nothing, they just keep referring me to Nvidia who refer me back to retailer. Not a huge issue but would have been nice and keep my son happy.

as expected, it is awesome. Fan wasn't loud for me and gpu temp is pretty good. One bad thing about it is that the gpu makes my case bit hotter than before(was using 3060) so my avg cpu temp also increased a bit. Now I can actually feel the heat coming out from my desktop case LOL. Glad I bought a portable AC few months ago so my room won't be a sauna.

The high pitched coil whine is so loud
