NVIDIA will change the power connector on GeForce RTX 3000 graphics cards
The rumor of rumors related to NVIDIA Ampere graphics cards was the statement of the Chinese profile organization FCPowerUp, which notes that graphics accelerators can get a new power standard with a 12-pin plug. The source also claims an additional 4-pin connector, but does not specify its purpose.
Experts associate the possibility of changing the wiring with the fact that the line of graphics accelerators GeForce RTX 3000 can potentially consume from 400 to 600 W, and therefore engineers will need to install an additional power line. This, in turn, will lead to a change in the type of connector.
Representatives of NVIDIA did not comment on the statement by insiders.
