ASUS has recently held a charity auction with special edition ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 Dhahab Edition graphics card signed by NVIDIA's CEO, Jensen Huang. ASUS managed to raise $24,200, which will go to the TZU CHI USA Foundation, a volunteer-based non-governmental organization providing charitable assistance, medical aid, disaster relief, and educational services, and environmental protection programs to those in need.

The auction period lasted from June 4 to June 13, and showing how tight the race was, the three highest bidders were just $10 apart. As the ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 Dhahab OC Edition is quite a rare graphics card and sold exclusively in the Middle East, the one signed by Jensen Huang is quite a catch. Hopefully, it won't end up on eBay.

The US Navy Exchange (NEX) store has become a surprising platform for acquiring NVIDIA's RTX 50-series graphics cards at their manufacturer's suggested retail prices. A Reddit user, known as Accomplished-Feed123, shared that by combining various store promotions and credit card rewards, they managed to purchase a GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition for just $1,900, which is significantly below the typical retail price. Savvy shoppers have long discovered open‑box electronics and gaming hardware bargains there. On this occasion, the Reddit user noticed several "largeish brown boxes" hidden behind a locked display that usually houses Apple products.

Those boxes contained multiple RTX 5070 and RTX 5080 cards, along with a single RTX 5090, all priced at their suggested MSRPs of $550, $999, and $1,999, respectively. A quick online search of the part numbers confirmed that the top‑end card was indeed the Founders Edition model. After applying applicable discounts and card rewards, Accomplished‑Feed123 walked away, paying only $1,900 out of pocket. Access to NEX is restricted to active and retired military members and their families, operating under the motto "You Serve, You Save." However, many consumers may know someone eligible for these benefits. Other branches of the US armed forces maintain similar exchange stores, though GPU availability and pricing may differ by location.

GALAX's modular "Boomstar" series of GeForce RTX 50-series cards are not well known in the West, but a little bit of global coverage trickled out last month. The Chinese manufacturer often releases regional exclusives, and its latest LUNA (white) and NOX (black) options are prime examples. Lucky owners can attach/detach Boomstar shrouds and cooling fans via a convenient and fully magnetic system. According to their latest teaser/promo material, GALAX seems to be preparing another modular part. A snazzy mirror finish backplate design has turned up online—as pointed out by VideoCardz. So far, published renders show only white examples sporting reflective back surfaces. Current LUNA and NOX SKUs cover GeForce RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5070 GPU tiers. Unfortunately, NVIDIA's slightly nerfed flagship "Blackwell" chip is no longer available in China—another GeForce RTX 5090D downgrade is pending. Up until recently, GALAX was promoting an impressive Hall of Fame record-breaking lineup. Looking at the other end of Team Green's "Blackwell" gaming GPU spectrum, a GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Boomstar model seems to be in the pipeline.

We stopped by ZOTAC at the Computex 2025 show as the company previously hinted the return of the ArcticStorm Series, in the form of the ZOTAC Gaming GeForce RTX 5090 ArcticStorm AIO. In addition to this flagship liquid cooled GeForce RTX 5090, ZOTAC is also working on a low-profile GeForce RTX 5060, which could be quite popular for small form-factor builds.

The star of the show is definitely the Gaming GeForce RTX 5090 ArcticStorm AIO graphics card, as this will be positioned as the flagship graphics card in ZOTAC's lineup, featuring an all-in-one liquid cooling with 360 mm radiator with three 120 mm RGB fans and SPECTRA 2.0 ARGB lighting, Infinity Mirror design, dual BIOS, and metal backplate.

NVIDIA's rollout of "Blackwell" generation GPUs is not complete, as rumors of a mid‑cycle refresh are already gaining momentum. Latest rumors point to a GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER (or "Ti," depending on what NVIDIA calls it) could arrive before the year is out, aiming to fill the gap between the base RTX 5080 and the flagship RTX 5090. Right now, the standard RTX 5080 comes with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory, while the RTX 5090 doubles that to 32 GB. According to a tipster on Baidu, the SUPER/Ti model would slot in at 24 GB, giving memory‑hungry games and applications a boost without stepping on the 5090's toes. Beyond that bump in RAM, though, we're still in the dark about core counts, clock speeds, and power targets.

On a related front, the China‑only RTX 5090D is reportedly being overhauled because of new US export restrictions. The revamped 5090D is said to lose almost a third of its shader hardware, dropping from 21,760 cores down to 14,080, similar to the professional‑grade RTX Pro 5000. Even if NVIDIA cranks up the clock speeds, that cut in cores would almost certainly drag performance back toward last‑generation RTX 4090 levels. Memory architecture might take a hit too: the revised 5090D could shift from a 512‑bit bus to 384 bits, reducing bandwidth by 25% even while keeping 32 GB of GDDR7. Some leaks even suggest NVIDIA might trim its VRAM to 24 GB, which would oddly line it up with the rumored spec for the upcoming 5080 SUPER.
