On May 28th, it was revealed by a blogger that the RTX 5090 will feature a large single-die GB202 "Blackwell" chip.
While NVIDIA has shifted its HPC/AI chips (such as B100 and B200) to chiplet designs, the company seems to be keeping single-die packaging for its consumer-facing GPU chips.
Reportedly, the GB202 "Blackwell" GPU will have a physical single-die design, with the SM and core count expected to be double that of the GB203, which is a more streamlined chip used in products like the GeForce RTX 5080.
This will result in a significant performance gap between the two cards, with the RTX 5090 being a true beast in terms of performance.
According to current reports, NVIDIA is set to use a 512-bit interface on the RTX 5090, along with a new cooling and PCB solution to match its performance.
Additionally, sources suggest that AMD will enter the high-end graphics performance arena with its RDNA 4 lineup. If NVIDIA releases the Blackwell GPU, it could further solidify its leading position in the gaming sector.
