It will only be about flagship models, but 600 W video cards are still the fact that many of us simply cannot understand. The last tweet from a reliable insider KOPITE7KIMI confirms that the next-generation graphics processor of the next-generation must have TGP (general graphic power) 600 W.

It should be noted that the decisions for cooling the next-generation graphics processors are developed in several months, perhaps even before graphic chips are ready for mass production. Physical characteristics, such as the size of the graphics processor and its position on the board, can be planned in advance.

In addition, the fact that the cooler is capable of disperse 600 W power does not mean that such a configuration will be used by the default graphics processor. The cooling capacity is often described as the maximum amount of heat that can be released by video cards, for example, when the power limits are changed by the user during overclocking.

The capacity limit of 600 W will definitely become a problem for partners on the board, but it will not be as difficult as some users may think. There are many air-cooled models, the maximum TGP of which already reaches 480 W, for example, ROG STRIX 3090 from ASUS. The graphic card is still three hundred cells and requires three fans, but these days it is not so unusual.

AMD cards, such as RX 6900XT TXIC Liquid from Sapphire, have a maximum TGP 400 W and are already supplied with external liquid cooling. So, perhaps, NVIDIA can go on this path with its next generation graphics processor by introducing liquid cooling for its flagship models. AMD has been doing this for many years.
