Correct. Technically, the 4090's all use the new 16 pin plug. They come with 3 or 4 way pcie adapters. However, if your card is capped at 450w by the aib then changing to a 4 way adapter will not get you to 600w.

That was one of the complaints about MSI's Suprim, iirc. They capped the power ~500w, or so, using a 4 pin adapter.

Yeah, mine is capped at 520W with a 4 way connector. However; you can flash it to the 600W vBios pretty easily, I think there is even one running around that is 600W from MSI that got out with the H2O cooled version.
I don't see the point though, I hit the voltage limit of 1.1V in every test I have ran at 4K before I ever hit 520W. I highest I have ever been able to hit is 502W, so still 18W to spare. I don't know how people are even hitting 600W with a 600W vBios... lol

I game with mine on the same settings I bench at... 3030Mhz Core (+135Mhz for me), +1250Mhz on the memory and 108% Power Slider (520W for me and I have yet to hit that gaming). Thing never gets above 52~54C gaming... lol. Because of the massively oversized cooler, the boost holds SOLID.
