• A rep from Inno3D Brazil let slip data in regards to the next-gen flagship
• On a YouTube livestream they initially mentioned it’d be out there in a couple of weeks
• They then backtracked and mentioned the reveal is about for CES 2025

Nvidia’s RTX 5090 is extensively anticipated to be revealed at CES 2025, and right here’s one other leak so as to add to the rising pile of hypothesis suggesting that that is certainly the case for the next-gen flagship GPU.

VideoCardz noticed {that a} consultant from the Brazilian arm of Inno3D, a graphics card maker, by accident let this nugget of information slip in a livestreamed interview on YouTube with Brazil-based retailer Pichau. (The video has simply been taken down, we must always word – it was reside after we began scripting this story, however is now marked as unavailable).

The Inno3D rep was responding to questions from viewers in regards to the next-gen Blackwell GPUs, and there have been mentions of the RTX 5090, whereupon the consultant mentioned that the graphics card can be ‘out there’ in simply three weeks.

You possibly can think about the response to that from viewers, which led to the consultant backpedaling and saying that the RTX 5090 will “solely be introduced at CES 2025 in January.”

Evaluation: CES 2025 appears a fairly positive guess now – as does a worth hike

As VideoCardz theorizes, what’s in all probability occurred right here (seize your saltshaker now) is that the rep was referring to Inno3D receiving its first RTX 5090 playing cards in a couple of weeks – so it’s in all probability prelaunch samples that’ll be ‘out there’ to the board maker (not the general public, after all).

Nonetheless, this does point out that Nvidia is readying every part for the massive launch early subsequent 12 months, and that as many earlier rumors have now insisted, the RTX 5090 is about to be revealed at CES 2025. (To be honest, there was some buzz a few late 2024 launch in latest occasions, however we predict that concept has just about been sidelined once more).

When the RTX 5090 does flip up, if the rumors are proper, it’ll be very highly effective – a giant step on from the RTX 4090 – but in addition very power-hungry. And maybe most worryingly, very costly too, probably to the purpose that Nvidia is pitching it as a GPU focused at professionals, somewhat than PC players, to justify the worth. Though GeForce is a gaming model, in order we’ve mentioned up to now, that doesn’t actually make a number of sense.

Regardless of the case, the RTX 5090 is more likely to see a worth hike of some selection, the rumor mill is fairly sure about that – and probably the RTX 5080 as nicely, the opposite Blackwell GPU supposedly set to be sprung on the world at CES 2025.
