Nvidia's plan to keep all its new GPUs under wraps until CES might have just gone up in smoke, as graphics card maker Zotac has just inadvertently the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5000 lineup on its website, including the new RTX 5090.
Set to dominate the CES, and it appears one of its closest partners has just let the cat out of the bag.
In a drop-down list on Zotac's website, tech site VideoCardz RTX 5060 listings, however.
This suggests that Nvidia is lining up a similar launch schedule to the 40-series, where the weaker cards launched considerably later than the higher-end models. More information around the RTX 5070 cards has also leaked, with the Ti model reportedly set to have 16GB of VRAM over the rumored 12GB in the regular model.
Since its discovery, the evidence of the leak has been mostly cleared up unless you look at the search results on Google. Searching still brings up remnants of the slip-up, with each card mentioned, as you can see in the image below.
The leak also includes the RTX 5090D, the China-specific graphics card made to circumvent US sanctions. Nvidia had to make tweaks to the 4090 after the US put a stop to powerful hardware being shipped to curtail China's artificial intelligence advances. The 4090, despite being a consumer card, was caught up in this situation and the 4090D was conceived.
With the 5090 planned to be even more powerful, this is the first confirmation from a board partner that the D-series GPU is making a comeback. The site also included new GDDR7 filters, which seemingly confirms rumors of a card with 32GB of VRAM card, which is likely to be the RTX 5090.
We're just weeks away from Nvidia's best gaming PC specs. It's set for January 6, 2025, with CEO Jensen Huang taking the stage to announce this new roster of GPUs.
