The Chiphell forum user who recently shared the first image of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card’s PCB has now revealed what the GPU itself looks like. The chip is showcased surrounded by next-generation GDDR7 memory modules.
Nvidia’s flagship GeForce RTX 5090, expected to debut at CES 2025, will feature the Blackwell series GB202 GPU. The GB202-300 variant used here includes 21,760 CUDA cores. The chip is housed in a substantial package measuring 63 × 56 mm, with the die itself sized at 24 × 21 mm, covering an area of 744 mm².
The image also highlights Samsung’s GDDR7 memory chips, though the labels are somewhat difficult to decipher. Each module has a capacity of 2 GB and is expected to operate at a speed of 28 GB/s. Surrounding the GPU are 16 memory chips, indicating the graphics card will boast 32 GB of memory—a unique configuration for gaming GPUs in the Blackwell series.
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 are anticipated to be announced in January, with the more advanced model potentially arriving later. However, samples are already in the hands of graphics card manufacturers, and the chip is branded with Nvidia’s logo. The only missing detail is the production date.
