Nvidia RTX 3090 Ti Review ft. MSI & Palit

As for the Palit RTX 3090 Ti GameRock OC, this also ships in a white box, with the GameRock logo emblazoned on the front – I always get a blast of nostalgia for Guitar Hero whenever I see this font…

On the back, Palit highlights different features of the cooler and design of the card.

As for the accessories, Palit includes a quick start guide and, oddly, a calendar, along with a support bracket (that just needs assembling) and an RGB extension cable. We also find another power adaptor for the PCIe Gen5 plug.

Looking at the card itself, we can see the same overall design as the RTX 3090 GameRock OC that we reviewed last year. That means we have easily the most ‘blinged-out' shroud design I have ever seen, with almost the entirety of the shroud acting as a big RGB LED diffuser – be sure to watch our video review to see this in action.

We can also note three 90mm fans used to cool the heatsink, while the parts of the shroud which aren't emitting RGB lighting are made of a grey metal.

Palit has also upscaled its design however to deal with the extra heat of the GPU – the GameRock OC measures 314 x 137 x 65 mm, and weighs in just under 1.9KG on my scales. It's not quite as large as the Suprim X, but it's not exactly Mini-ITX friendly…

The GeForce RTX and GameRock logos are visible on the top side of the card, and also on the full-length metal backplate, which features several large cutouts at the far end. Palit also includes a dual-BIOS switch right next to the I/O bracket, with a choice between the P (performance) and S (silent) BIOS. The former has a 460W power target, while the latter has a 450W target.

We get another look at the new PCIe Gen5 power connector that Palit uses here, though do remember an adaptor is included. Display outputs are also standard, with 3x DisplayPort 1.4 and 1x HDMI 2.1.
