One of the few people who managed to buy RTX 5080 was surprised when he saw their card was RTX 5090At least according to the engraved name of the cooler. Reddit user Essdee3d Posted image showing what looks like the RTX 5090 Edition Edition GPU in a RTX 5080 box, ordered directly from NVIDIA to Linus Tech Tech Subreddit.
“I ordered 5080 and received a graphics card with 5090 engraved on it,” the user said. “The outer box has 5080 SKU on it. Wondering if anyone else has seen something like that before? “Unfortunately, no one in the thread (as far as we could see) said they had such experience. Instead, the answers were a combination of envy, congratulations, and a few wondered if Essdee3d falsified all the work.
A few hours later, the buyer of the RTX 5080 returned with a video (built below) showing the graphics card working inside his computer to provide hard proof. When he moved to his monitor and revealed the GPU details, the task manager announced that the card was RTX 5080, much about the sound disappointment of Essdee3d; GPU-Z also confirmed that it was RTX 5080.
Although we have no more details than the person himself, one of the two things happened: either the graphics card had a RTX 5080 cooler and was simply engraved incorrectly, or the cooler is intended for the RTX 5090. It is difficult to say which scenario is more plausible (and and If both are impossible) and without rupture by the buyer, we will never know for sure.
Despite sharing the exact physical size, the RTX 5090 Edition Edition cooler is a much higher class than the one used for the RTX 5080. Having less VRAM chips, a smaller graph They should be because the RTX 5080 cooler has less cooling wisdom. If ESSDEE3D receives the RTX 5090 cooler, not just the RTX 5080 cooler with the wrong name engraved on it, this will be the largest RTX 5080 reference graphics card.
A simple stress test will probably reveal whether this is a regular RTX 5080 cooler or the RTX 5090 cooler. The leading NVIDIA graphics processor is estimated for 575 watts, while the RTX 5080 is a 360-watt card, so the difference will be quite noticeable.
Perhaps the most interesting thing about this wrongly called graphic processor is that it was not complete mixing. Although the card was seemingly RTX 5090, it was still sent to the right box and delivered to someone who bought RTX 5080. The RTX 50 series is in an extremely shortageS
