A newly leaked video from an Indonesian factory has reportedly revealed NVIDIA’s next-generation RTX 5090 GPU. The factory, used to bypass US export sanctions, shows the powerful GPU in production, offering a sneak peek at its massive design and potential specs.
NVIDIA RTX 5090 Leak Emerges from Indonesian Factory
Images of what appears to be NVIDIA's flagship RTX 50 series GPU have surfaced, and while they aren't exactly clear, they do seem to be official.
The future GeForce RTX 5090 GPU from NVIDIA may be seen running in what are supposedly test units before the exact GPU is handed out in a Chiphell thread (via Olrak), and a video of the GPU factory uploaded on Bilibili has given us an interesting peek at NVIDIA's upcoming SKU.
Intriguingly, the video's description discloses that the Indonesian facility is utilized to ship out GPUs to China, which is a way around US sanctions. A similar situation will apply with NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5090.
US Sanctions Spark Indonesian Workaround for RTX 5090
As stated in the Bilibili video (Machine Translated):
“Due to the US's chip export control on China, graphics card chips with performance equal to or higher than 4090 are prohibited from being exported to mainland China. In order to avoid the impact of this move on the first release of RTX5090, Bo Neng urgently built a factory in Batam, Indonesia. The video shows the factory production line debugging screen. The graphics card that lights up the monitor in the video is the NVIDIA RTX5090 graphics card that will be launched soon.”
The graphics processing unit (GPU) shown in the photographs might not be an authentic NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, but the fact that we haven't seen this specific design in stores suggests that the SKU in question is something more recent, says WCCFTECH.
Speculation Mounts Over New GPU Design
As early as September 2022, photos of the first custom RTX 4090 model were leaked by ZOTAC from one of its factories, making them the first to reveal the product before its official launch.
The photos reveal that ZOTAC's supply chain and non-disclosure agreements are severely flawed because the company's logo is in the middle of the fan blades.
Featuring a single 12V-2x6 power connector, three fans to dissipate heat, and a three-slot architecture, the GPU appears enormous from this perspective. The video clearly shows the unit operating, therefore AIB partners are probably just doing trial runs before starting mass production.
