New graphics cards NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 And 5090D seem to be dying, according to user reports from the whole web, especially in China. Problems seem to be the result of a recently published pilot and use by PCIE 5.0 bus cards, users are no longer able to use their graphics cards.
We praised the performance of the new GPU in our NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 reviewBut criticized the high price. The PDSF for Nvidia Founders Edition Cards is already a huge $ 1,999, with manufacturers’ cards based on the new GPU at $ 3,000 or more.
With such an expensive part of PC in people’s machines, it is not surprising that those who were affected by the problem started to light up forum wires. A pilot that was published last Thursday also seems to be a problem, users saying that their cards simply display a black screen when the pilot is updated, or in some cases, the cards can no longer be detected.
A user on Asus Reddit forum (Subdreddit) is an example. The user platform, which is based on a AMD Ryzen 7 9800x3dcould no longer detect the RTX 5090 in Windows, and even the Bios d’Asus on the motherboard does not show the card, but all fans and lights are lit.
On BaiduA Chinese forum, a user urges potential buyers to stay away from the first batch of GPU 5090D and 5090. The D model is specific to China to bypass the American blocks to export the card to the country. The user claims that after updating the driver, the screen now shows nothing.
One user on another Chinese forum, ChiphellAlso said that their RTX 5090D encounters the same problems. Until now, it has been identified that the cards of Nvidia, Colorful, Gigabyte and Manli seem to be affected by this pilot bug, but a correction apparently consists in forcing the slot on the motherboard to use PCIe 4.0 rather than on PCIe 5.0, although the previously alleged user on the Asus Reddit forums, says that it did not work on their machine.
However, a GOOFISH – original report by WCCFTECH – Another Chinese social media site says that a batch of 5090 could have a “burned nucleus”. The release of Nvidia of her first RTX 5000 Cards was labeled a “paper launch” by several people, some online saying that the company should have delayed the GPUs. The stock is tight, and now it seems that there could also be potential material problems. We contacted Nvidia to comment on the situation.
While Stock RTX 5090 Could be difficult to find at the moment, we have not yet seen where the rest of the RTX 5000 series will land. Until now, fortunately there has been no report on material problems with the RTX 5080which is currently the Best graphics card less than $ 1,000 on our buying guide.
