The PCB in the photos is most likely some kind of partner variant of the RTX 5090 – it is significantly larger than a regular expansion board, and there is no Nvidia marking on it, that is, it is not a Founders Edition model. Her pictures were published on the Chiphell forum, which has previously become a source of similar leaks. On the other hand, it is built on a PG145 board – this is the Nvidia reference design. The layout of the GDDR7 graphics memory resembles the Google Android logo: five chips on the left and right, four on top and two on the bottom of the GPU. A total of 16 modules are obtained, which in theory allows the use of configurations of 32, 48 or 64 GB, depending on the modules used: 2, 3 or 4 GB.
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 is equipped with a GB202 graphics processor, the dimensions of which are 24 × 31 mm – and 63 × 56 mm including packaging. There is only one power connector on the board, and it is most likely 12V-6×2. Finally, the appearance suggests that the video card is connected via the PCIe 5.0 interface.
