Nvidia, third-party board makers, look and learn from the reaction to this modder’s work
An intrepid modder has shrunk down Nvidia’s RTX 4070 Ti so it’s a much more compact graphics card that’ll fit into smaller PC cases.
This impressive feat of PC component DIY was posted on Reddit by modder TechTaxi, as VideoCardz reports.
We should note upfront that the modded RTX 4070 Ti is still just a prototype, and TechTaxi concedes that there is “still more work to be done to make it more polished and fully functional” right now, and they can’t make any promises that the project will come to fruition. (There are previous projects that have been realized, mind).
At any rate, it looks very impressive, with the RTX 4070 Ti being shrunk down so it’s a single-fan, 2-slot graphics card (the original is a beefy triple-fan, triple-slot card, although we have seen 2.5-slot versions out there – we’ll come back to that point later). It’s only 173mm long and just under 42mm thick, so fits nicely into smaller form-factor (Mini-ITX) PC cases.
