Title: World's smallest RTX 4090 card: Alphacool's latest waterblock transforms the Nvidia beast into a compact 1-slot GPU

Turning the massive RTX 4090 GPU into a 1-slot compact card is easy with the Alphacool reference design enterprise-level waterblock with backplate. The compact design also reduces the card length by almost 50%, but it only works with INNO3D models.

Man. If only this was the first time this even took place?!? 

I mean this is exactly what I've been doing for years.  Making my GPUs single slot with liquid cooling. 

Just makes sense and is best for the most part.

Maybe, but it is also difficult. Failure can occur.

Installing a water block is not difficult especially if your getting the block from a reputable manufacturer and their directions are written in whatever langue you understand. I've had to use Google translate to translate Chinese to English when I got a really cheap Byski card once. Pretty much make sure everything tightened down and your fittings are secure and your good to go.
