Nvidia RTX 5090 Specs Allegedly Leaked

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090: A Beast of a Card, But at a Price

Leaked information suggests Nvidia's upcoming RTX 5090 graphics card will be a powerhouse. Key features include a massive 32GB of GDDR7 video memory—double that of the anticipated RTX 5080 and 5070 Ti—and a substantial 575W power draw. This high-end GPU, codenamed Blackwell, will be officially unveiled at CES 2025 on January 6th.

The RTX 50 series represents Nvidia's next-generation graphics cards, launching over two years after the RTX 40 series. Building on its predecessors, the RTX 50 series will leverage Tensor Cores for AI processing, incorporate DLSS upscaling and ray tracing, and offer PCIe 5.0 support for compatible motherboards. This new lineup will replace the RTX 40 series (some models of which, like the RTX 4090D and RTX 4070, have already been discontinued) and compete directly with AMD's Radeon RX 9000 series and Intel's Battlemage GPUs.

Pre-CES leaks, originating from VideoCardz and showcasing Inno3D's iChill X3 RTX 5090, further substantiated these specifications. The iChill X3, a triple-fan card occupying over three expansion slots, confirms the 32GB GDDR7 memory and the significant 575W power requirement—a considerable jump from the RTX 4090's 450W.

The RTX 5090's Impressive Specs Come at a Premium

The RTX 5090's impressive specifications will undoubtedly come at a premium price. While Nvidia remains tight-lipped on pricing, industry speculation points to an MSRP starting at $1999 or higher. The card will utilize a 16-pin power connector, although adapters will be provided.

The entire RTX 50 series, including the RTX 5080 and 5070 Ti, will be revealed alongside the RTX 5090 during Nvidia's CES keynote on January 6th at 9:30 PM Eastern. The launch of this new generation will be closely watched by consumers and the industry alike.
