You can buy them from unofficial sources if you’re lucky enough to find one. The OP in that thread was offered one from and unofficial, small batch of AI cards and had to pay about 1.5 times what you’d pay for a regular 4090. The cards may very well be from a similar source to this one.
So “you can buy 2-slot 4090s” is technically correct, but isn’t actually true for most people even if they had the money.
If there was a western way to get something like this, I’d actually pay for that. Main reason I boycott Nvidia now is how fat their cards have become.
They’ve become pretty much impossible for anyone in the west to get since the ban started.

Msi Liquid Suprim 4090 is 2 slot but with an extra radiator hookup.
