Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090, it's confirmed
To obtain information on a highly anticipated product, there are not thirty-six solutions. We contact the brand which obviously locks all communications with its marketing department or we go through circuitous routes. And very often the after-sales service department is a good starting point for gathering information. The best thing is to go through the after-sales service of a partner who is not necessarily aware of all the subtleties of non-disclosure of information agreements (NDA) and sometimes not even aware at all.
An indirect confirmation of the release date
A Chinese user used – perhaps without knowing it – this ploy to obtain information on Nvidia's next high-end graphics card, the GeForce RTX 5090. He thus contacted a power supply manufacturer (Segotep) to find out if He had to plan the purchase of a more powerful power supply with two 16-pin connectors in anticipation of the arrival of the GeForce RTX 5090.
The response from the power supply manufacturer was not long in coming, and not without a touch of humor.
Single 12VHPWR power connector
Thus, by reassuring its customer, the manufacturer silences a rumor that was circulating on the web, namely the use of two 16-pin power connectors. On the other hand, the manufacturer confirms the launch date which is set for January 2025.
As a reminder, the Geforce RTX 5090 is expected to be the most high-end consumer graphics card model from Nvidia. It features a Blackwell GB202 processor accompanied by 32 GB of GDDR7 video memory. The first price estimates speak of $1999 with a release in January 2025.
