After Release Of RTX 4090, Redditors Hilariously Call Nvidia Out For Targeting ‘Block-Chain Miners’ Over ‘Regular Users’

New Nvidia RTX 4090 GPU series is coming soon and ever since its launch announcement, it has been a topic of controversy among the community. At first, it was criticized for its expensive price tag, which is a little more than $1,500. Now it has again made rounds in the news for its absurd size.

The size of the new Nvidia GPUs has been criticized for being too big for a standard PC case. The size of the GPU is compared to the Xbox series X consoles, PlayStation 3, and even a mini fridge. The absurd size of the system is compelling the fandom to make some spicy speculations. Why Nvidia has made the decision of making a GPU that is almost impossible for the common people to use? 

Is Nvidia Targeting the Blockchain Miners? 

The demand for good graphics cards in the Block Chain mining scene is very high. There is always a need for high-performance graphics cards as “they have become more useful in blockchain mining due to their speed and efficiency.”

Blockchain miners usually put large orders for GPUs as they need high amounts of Graphic Processing Units to run a proper farm. This makes the farming market a great opportunity for profit for the companies like Nvidia, which specialize in making high-performance, premium grade Graphics processing units. 

And the according to Nicehash the hashrate of the Nvidia RTX 4090 will be similar to or slightly higher than the RTX 3090 Ti on the memory-intensive algorithms. This means around 140MH/s on the ETChash algorithm.

This upgrade can be very advantageous for Blockchain Miners. They can implore the performance of their farms with RTX 4090. And as these mining farms only need the GPU in an open rig, the size of the system matters little to nothing. This could be the reason why Nvidia decided to focus on performance and speed rather than the size of its product. 

Fans have started speculating on this matter, being vocal about their thoughts on social media and making memes to convey their points.

When is the RTX 4090 releasing?

The Nvidia RTX 4090 is announced to be released on October 12 which is just around the corner. Compared to its predecessor 3090, it has 60% more cores and almost double the clock speed. Yet the memory clocks and specifications are not that much higher compared to RTX 3090. Both of the cards use GDDRX6 memory. Note that RTX 4090’s TDP is about 30% higher compared to RTX 3090.
