Zotac Leaks The RTX 5090 And Four Other RTX 5000 Series GPUs

by

As a seasoned cinephile and tech enthusiast who has witnessed the evolution of GPUs since the days of the humble GeForce 256, I can’t help but feel like a kid on Christmas Eve as CES 2025 approaches, with the rumblings of Nvidia’s RTX 5000 Series GPUs sending ripples of excitement throughout the gaming community.

With CES 2025 fast approaching, both PC gamers and power users find themselves brimming with anticipation: It’s been suggested that Nvidia’s RTX 5000 Series graphics cards will be showcased alongside the company’s keynote, along with whispers of cutting-edge DLSS technology and other AI-focused improvements. However, Nvidia has kept a fairly tight lid on specific details, particularly regarding the forthcoming RTX 5000 series GPUs, leaving many eagerly waiting for more information.

As a movie critic, I’m always on the lookout for the latest releases, and in the tech world, that means keeping tabs on the upcoming RTX 5000 series from Nvidia. While we haven’t seen official performance numbers yet, leaks from various sources have given us a pretty clear picture of what to anticipate. The most recent leak comes from Zotac, whose ongoing product filter updates (spotted by Videocardz.com) seem to confirm the hardware specifications for not just one, but two new cards: the RTX 5090 and five other RTX 5000 series models. So, while we wait for the grand unveiling, I’m excitedly piecing together the puzzle based on these intriguing clues!

What Does The Zotac Leak Tell Us?

It appears history may be on repeat, as Zotac seems to have prematurely disclosed information about the upcoming RTX 5000 series graphics cards, such as the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080. This is reminiscent of an earlier incident involving Zotac and leaks regarding the RTX 4000 series GPUs a few years back. However, it seems that Zotac couldn’t wait even for Nvidia’s latest and as-yet unrevealed powerhouse GPUs. By data mining simple Google searches, it’s possible to speculate that as many as 5 new RTX 5000 series GPUs could be unveiled soon.

  1. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090
  2. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090D
  3. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080
  4. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070Ti
  5. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070

The disclosed details also involve the adoption of GDDR7 memory and the announcement of a 32GB version of the RTX 5090, as suggested by the updated filters that include these specifications. Out of the five models mentioned, it’s anticipated that four will be accessible worldwide; however, potential export restrictions imposed by the U.S. could affect the availability of the RTX 5090, leading to a slightly reduced version (RTX 5090D) being offered to consumers in China instead. Interestingly, the leaks do not seem to hint at the release of the RTX 5060 or the long-anticipated RTX 5080D.

1) Recent leaks suggest the first model, while experts anticipate that a scaled-down version of the RTX 5080, the second one, may be necessary to comply with export rules.

What Does This Mean For Gamers In 2025?

Essentially, Nvidia seems to be operating at full capacity, and there’s a possibility that we could see the release of the RTX 5070 before its previous model. This is because the launch timeline for the RTX 5070 appears to be more aligned with the RTX 4080/4090 series, unlike its predecessor. Furthermore, while it’s not yet confirmed, it’s worth noting that a 32GB version of the RTX 5090 might exist, though it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a reduced memory variant of the same model.

Although Zotac’s leaks don’t reveal any details about the pricing for their GPU products, there are whispers that the top-tier model could cost up to $2000. This isn’t an extraordinary figure considering that existing RTX 4090 models often exceed $2000 in price.
