Two things before we start—one, the video above uses an AI voiceover and it's rubbish, so be prepared for the RTX 4090 to be referred to as the RTX four-thousand-and-ninety a whole lot. And two, you're about to see how that card can be outfitted with an astonishing 48 GB of VRAM and come out of the experience working correctly, a process I only thought possible with dark arts, witchcraft, and a sacrifice made to the silicon gods.
But whaddaya know, it turns out it's actually reasonably achievable, as demonstrated by our host, Vik-on (via Videocardz). While plenty of modders have strapped more memory modules to graphics cards in the past, it's usually been a technical exercise, rather than creating a genuinely useable GPU at the end of it.
