Improve the power supply passed GeForce GTX 590 will update the design

As NVIDIA's current dual-core flagship card, GeForce GTX 590 does not need to say that its top performance, but its high power consumption, high heat, but also deterred many enthusiasts. Especially in the case of imperfect driving before the official release, there have been reports of terror news that the GTX 590 burned smoke in overclocking.

VR-Zone recently received news that NVIDIA has decided to modify the public version of the GeForce GTX 590 to avoid similar problems in the future. The new card will still carry two GF110 GPUs with 3GB GDDR5 memory. However, in terms of video card power supply, the new GTX 590 will use larger inductors to ensure stable power supply even under overclocking conditions.

Due to the increase of inductor size, NVIDIA must modify the design of the public version of the PCB. The new PCB number may be 699-11020-005-502, and the current version is 699-11020-005-500. Correspondingly, the public version card radiator will also be revised, and the corresponding products such as water-cooled heads launched by third parties may also have to change funds.

It is said that the new GeForce GTX 590 will be available in June. Considering the scarcity of this flagship card in the global market, it may be that when the next batch arrives, it will be a new card that comes to your hands.
