Images of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 PCB with all integrated components
New images of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 PCB that allows us in this case to see how the components are distributed and some interesting aspects.
A few weeks ago supposed images of the clean PCB of the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 were leaked that generated quite a few doubts. Now an image has been leaked that really corresponds to the PCB of the RTX 2080 since in this case you can see that it uses the TU104-400-A1 silicon. The overall package is noticeably larger than that used in the GTX 1080 (GP104) due to the fact that it incorporates Tensor Core for real-time RayTracing rendering

We can see that the PCB has eight memory chips that surround the GPU, but this graphic can hold up to 16GB of memory (in eight chips) We must emphasize that this graphic card has a 256-bit memory bus, as we already knew and that is what the difference (among others) from the RTX 2080 Ti, which would make use of a 384-bit memory bus.
The graphics card uses an 8-pin connector and a 6-pin connector for power, so in this aspect the consumption has been taken care of with respect to the GTX 1080, which in the reference model used two 8-pin connectors . We see that this graphics card uses an 8 + 2 power phase system leaving room for future updates.
There is nothing new about the video ports, since we were very clear that DVI was disappearing as it was obsolete and was being replaced by a USB Type-C VirtualLink. The other important aspect is the NVLink that replaces the SLI, another obsolete interconnection system and that in Pascal was present but almost without support from NVIDIA.
