There is a problem with some graphics cards of Nvidia Geforce RTX 50 series, and it all comes down to the components themselves within the GPU. Nvidia said she identified “a rare question” with a small number RTX 5090 and RTX 5070 Ti graphics cards Because of this, they ran on lower performance than they should. The good news is that Nvidia promises manufacturers to replace influential cards. The bad news is that you will still fight to buy oneEven while some users complained that their cards failed to work or – in one case – literally caught.
RTX 5090 owners complain on the net for more than a week that some cards have been delivered with fewer ROPS, aka render/raster exit units than they should have. The RTX 5090 inspection units are reportedly enabled by 176 ROP, according to NVIDIA white paper on RTX 50-series, but some AIB variants can carry Blackwell architecture with less functional slaves. On Saturday Nvidia confirmed the worst fears of the Committee owner with Vergesaying that the question affected .5% of So far sold by RTX 5090 and RTX 5070 TI cards. The company said it led to worse graphic performance “4%”. The problem with Blackwell Infrastructure also influenced China focused on the RTX 5090D. Nvidia said she had solved the production problem.
The owners need to come up with whether their ultra -set graphics card is weaker. TechpowerupWhich helped identify the problem, quoted Zotac RTX 5090 solid maps of weak effects using The GPU-Z Toolwhich can write a sting number on your card. The Techpowerup identified eight units of ROP, which were missing at 5090, resulting in 4.5% of the growth capabilities with a zotac card. Breeding output units, which help in the last pieces of pipeline to display RTX, were either missing or defective. ROPs are more important for tasks such as anti-aliasing and texture showing, so users may not experience a big fall in some games like others.
RTX 5070 You should have 96 ROP, as our inspection unit supports. Some Forum users (through Tom’shardware) You claim that some cards have been delivered to 88 dressers, which led to an alleged fall of 10% in some games. To fix the situation, users will need to contact these separate companies and work with them on replacements. Gizmodo reached for a Zotac to determine that users could ask for GPU replacements, and we will update this story when we answer.
The edition can be present on the founder cards and the entire ASORTIMAN AIB from Asus, MSI and Gigabyte, to list them. If Nvidia could correct the problem with software updates, it would. This indicates that the problem of flaws with at least a few chips Blackwell GB202, indicating a problem arising from Nvidia as a original manufacturer.
The launch of the RTX 50 resource welcomed more than the usual number of Hangaps. The so -called “cablete” 12VHPWR cable to melt the snafu Nvidia Geforce RTX 4090 Starting seems Blasé compared to that Wild west of the controversy GPU -a. However, among the Nvidia user community is all that the latest cards extend what can handle a regular computer, even without a 12VHPWR connection.
On Reddit (by Videocardz,, one user He claimed to use the ASUS Rog Astral RTX 5090 and experienced a catastrophic failure where his committee “caught fire”. Astral is a huge variant of a four-time, four variants of top-notch GPU that costs more than $ 3,000. The user inquisition claims that they played some games on their computer and examined the Internet when the computer shuts down. After restarting, the smoke began to come out of the case and discovered the burn traces of the GPU -UI motherboard.
Without jumping to conclusions, there is not much that he would break into the flames, although judging by the pictures, the problem did not start on the power supply. As some originally speculated, YouTuber Building blamed the GPU’s strength stage, not a capacitor. It seems to be a question on Asus, not Nvidia ‘.
Nvidia obviously needed to reconsider her stock insurance plans and quality before launching a 50 series. Reviewers expect some increasing pain during the review procedure for a new product, especially one technically as a GPU. During the testing of the RTX 5090 and RTX 5070 TI, we experienced more problems where the computer would load on the black screen after starting from the closure or after the extended sleep period. Nvidia said that repaired these problems with the latest driver’s update, 572.47, although users continue to express dissatisfaction On official Nvidia forums. Nvidia Reps told users to still explore the problem. The repair may need to come to update the driver or VBIOS.
