The GeForce RTX 4090 is, to this day, the undisputed queen of the desktop when it comes to performance. Obviously it is not a graphics card for everyone, because both for price and for requirements, it is aimed at very specific user profiles. Whether it is to enjoy the most extreme gaming experience, for editing high definition content or for tasks related to artificial intelligence, among others, the lucky owners of the current top of the range from NVIDIA know that there is no other desktop solution. that is close to what they have.
Remember that, in its normal edition and out of the box, its performance scales seamlessly up to 2,750 megahertzas we told you when we tested the NVIDIA reference design, a more than remarkable speed, since it represents a more than considerable increase compared to the two gigahertz “and a pinch” of its predecessor, the RTX 3090. And I insist, we spoke from the base configuration, and when it comes to the overclocking possibilities that NVIDIA graphics cards have always offered, obviously the GeForce RTX 4090 is no exception.
Thus, on the one hand we find GeForce RTX 4090 models that, thanks to the use of components specifically designed for this purpose, allow you to increase the performance of the GPU in a completely safe way. The OC variants offered by some manufacturers are the perfect example of this, and as a general rule they usually have advanced cooling systems, in many cases liquid cooling, which is responsible for protecting key components.

On the other hand, we find users, many of them professionals, who know how to push the performance of graphics cards to the extreme, beyond their technical specifications and their maximum assumptions, and it is in this very interesting ecosystem that we find ourselves. with many world records. The most recent example of this is found in HWBot, where we can see the CENS brand, a modder that has managed to get its GeForce RTX 4090 to work at 3,930 megahertzthus setting a world record and falling just 70 megahertz short of the symbolic four gigahertz mark.
To achieve this mark, CENS has employed a Colorful iGame RTX 4090 LABa Colorful GeForce RTX 4090 specially optimized for overclocking, placing itself above its well-known and veteran iGame Vulcan family, which has already surprised us in the past with beasts such as the Colorful iGAME GTX 1080 KUDAN from 2016, and which has also been entered other markets, such as the AiO.
