NVIDIA users GeForce RTX 5090 & 5090D GPU face many problems, some cards even breaks with the latest drivers.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 and 5090D GPU problems arise, the cards broke after installing the driver
GPUs GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5090D from NVIDIA were launched on January 30. THE RTX 5090D is a variant designed for Chinese markets to comply with American export regulations. The GPU has reduced the capabilities of the AI, but the central configuration is technically the same. Like the RTX 5090, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090D was available in limited quantities at launchBut it seems that the lucky few who managed to grasp one does not have great experience.
On the Chinese forums, notably Chiphell, Baidu, and even the point of sale of social media, Bilibili, there is a lot of reports on the GeForce RTX 5090D of Nvidia ending in bricks. The two variants that caused these problems come from manufacturers, colored and MANLI. However, there are also some reports on Gigabyte RTX 5090D GPUs.
Now, according to the users concerned, the problem started when installing the last drivers. A user says That he installed the GPU GEFORCE RTX 5090D (colorful) inside his PC, started it, and during the installation of the pilot, the screen became black. The graphics card could no longer be recognized and the user checked the DP and HDMI interfaces.
A similar problem was reported on Baidu Forums When a user with GeForce RTX 5090D GPU of Manli, the Gallardo variant, installed drivers on its PC but ended up with its GPU not recognized by the system.
One of the sellers of the third -party point of sale, Butchersaid all GPUs Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 & RTX 5090D are affected by the same problem and there is a high probability that the last drivers will crush the card and make it unrecognizable by the system. There is also small chances of GPU glitch and some IC burns have also been reported.
In addition, it seems that this problem is not limited to the 5090D, because some users of the GeForce RTX 5090 are also faced with similar problems. On the R / Asus SubredditA user performing the RTX 5090 is unable to detect the card on Windows, neither by drivers nor by BIOS. The user tried to erase the CMOS, but it didn’t work either.
Some suggest that changing the PCIE option from 5.0 to 4.0 could solve the problem and it is also something that Der8auer Presented his video, but this is not a confirmed solution to this problem. The fact is that the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series is the first fully compliant Gen5 cards, which means that there could be signaling problems when executing older cards that must be passed in Gen4 mode for a better compatibility. Meanwhile, some Gen5 tips have, ways sharing between M.2 locations and PCIE slot machines, which can also cause unwanted problems.

Here is a video of a Bilibili poster that downloaded an image from the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090D from MANLI is not recognized. The graphics card no longer works, as indicated by the user. It can be consulted here.
In other news, the PCmarket community on Facebook (via Video & Uniko material) managed to carry out tests with RTX 5090D, RTX 5080 and GPU RTX 4080, which resulted in the melting of 16 -pin cables. The taking indicates that the cards have been tested at full load, so we do not know what type of constraint test they operated and, by the appearance of things, the connector cables seem to be older 12vhpwr connectors that have been used by the RTX 4090.
These cables and the connector have already caused serious fusion problems on the RTX 4090, so a 600W 5090 with even more power can cause disastrous results. That said, there has been no report on new 12V-2X6 connectors or RTX 50 GPUs making the merger or are not yet damaged, but there are not many cards yet due to problems of Inventory, so if there are such reports, we will be sure to monitor them.
