Zotac’s most serious GeForce RTX 5090 card consumes 600 watts

The manufacturer will start the fair with two product lines, which scale down to the RTX 5070 Ti, but only the Solid series comes from the plain RTX 5070.

Zotac will increase its lineup with three high-end models at the launch of NVIDIA Blackwell architecture video cards on January 30, and the base model with a TDP of 575 watts GeForce RTX 5090 Solidnak (ZT-B50900D-10P) is called.

Equipped with a 21760 CUDA core and two BIOS chips, the 512-bit device has a length of 329.7 mm, a height of 137.8 mm and a thickness of 67.8 mm, and it works with a thermal chamber that is 34 percent larger than the previous generation , the three-fan IceStorm 3.0 cooling naturally supports semi-passive operation. The speed of the BladeLink air stirrers, which are installed on the block and hold the ends of their blades together in a ring, can be individually controlled thanks to the Active Fan Control 2.0 technology, and the internal structure is strengthened by a cast metal frame.

The 3.5-slot, 12+4-pin 12V-2×6 solution powered by a 12V-2×6 connector also has some Spectra 2.0 RGB lighting in the upper part of the casing, and the GPU Boost frequency of the GB202 chip is tuned to the reference value, i.e. 2407 MHz. The 32GB of GDDR7 VRAM ticks away at the standard 28GHz effective clock, while the aluminum backplate is perforated for ventilation, and the I/O frame houses three DisplayPort 1.2b versions next to the lone HDMI 2.1b output.

Under the backplate, there is a construction that indicates the correct power supply with a green LED GeForce RTX 5090 Solid as OC listed, very minimally “tuned” variant (ZT-B50900J-10P), which has a GPU Boost frequency of 2422 MHz.

The more serious newcomer is a GeForce RTX 5090 AMP Extreme Infinity (ZT-B50900B-10P) and is easily recognizable by the light strip running along the top, the more sophisticated-looking back cover plate, and the ARGB ornament with an infinite mirror effect on the front.

The hardware with physical dimensions of 332.1 x 137.5 x 69.6 mm and operating with eight composite heat pipes follows a very similar design to its slightly more modest relative, but the GPU Boost clock has been increased to 2467 MHz. Of course, the parameters of the on-board memory have not changed, as well as the configuration of the video outputs or the power connector, although as mentioned in the title of our news, the TDP has increased to 600 watts.

We can’t say purchase prices for either model yet, but NVIDIA’s reference card will in principle be (net) $2,000, so factory tuning solutions may cost more.
