Nvidia RTX 5090 owners report melting power connectors and damaged power supplies, mirroring the same RTX 4090 issues.
Nvidia RTX 5080 and 5090 users are reporting widespread black screens, crashes, and other issues. Nvidia is investigating, but a fix is not yet available.
An RTX 5080 was apparently just sold by Nvidia with a 5090 shroud on top and it happened from the official store.
Nvidia's RTX 5090 and 5080 launch has been mediocre so far as it has not been able to replicate the hype generated during the marketing. There are several problems.
With the RTX 5090 and 5080 availability just around the corner, here is how the entire lineup of Nvidia's new graphics cards compares to its predecessors.
Nvidia does not "expect" the upcoming RTX 5090 or 5080 GPUs to burn up and this is thanks to a new type of 12VHWPR PCIe power connector.
The RTX 5090 scores in the popular 3DMark benchmarks have apparently leaked and it shows an impressive lead over RTX 4090. However, there is a catch.
Geekbench scores of Nvidia's new flagship, the RTX 5090, have leaked, and they show a mixed bag of performance.
Nvidia has admitted that the RTX 5070 is nowhere close to the RTX 4090's performance when not using "fake" AI generated frames.
Nvidia has launched its new RTX 5000 series GPUs today. Alongside that, the company has also introduced a new special sauce which means you won't have to worry about lack of VRAM.
NVIDIA's next generation GeForce RTX 5080 GPU is expected to be the first to utilise 32 Gbps GDDR7 memory at launch.
If you are looking forward for the next-generation Nvidia graphics cards, keep your eyes peeled on the now-confirmed Nvidia keynote at CES 2025.
Nvidia may actually not care about gamers or even budget video/3D artists as the upcoming RTX 5080 is rumoured to pack just 16 Gigs of VRAM.
Leaked specs reveal the massive power requirements of Nvidia's upcoming RTX 50-series GPUs, with the flagship RTX 5090 rumored to consume a record-breaking 600W.
Recent leaks revealed Nvidia's plans for the RTX 5090. It will reportedly have 50% increase in CUDA cores, 52% faster memory bandwidth through GDDR7, and a 15% increase in clock speed to over 3GHz.
One of the biggest criticisms of Nvidia's current mid-range cards, like the RTX 4060 Ti, is that the GPUs are severely lacking, in terms of memory capacity and bandwidth. That may change soon.
