- NVIDIA RTX 5090 has encountered problems with the last graphics controller
- There are numerous reports that GPUs are no longer being recognized by PCs after the controller has been installed.
- The problem could be wrapped in pcie 5.0 compatibility
The new NVIDIA graphics controller, which provides support for the RTX 5090 and 5080 GPUs, has caused problems with the games that are blocked, and in addition to that, there are now reports from some owners of Blackwell graphics cards. .
We should immediately clarify that the cable spectrum melts that hit RTX 4090 is not a stuff With the RTX 5090, despite some rumors that recently circulated. These reports obtained the incorrect end of the stick (or the power connector, rather).
These fresco bugs apparently affect RTX 5090 are mainly that the GPU does not work (it is not recognized by the PC), in addition to an affirmation that two of these Nvidia graphics cards have been blocked (published in Goofish). Apparently, part of the problem here is a ‘very small probability’ of the internal components ‘burn’, although the translation can be a problem here, I must take into account. In addition, we should be very cautious with these particular anecdotal reports at this stage (I will return to that shortly).
As Videcardz marked, these problems have apparently achieved some buyers RTX 5090, and also those who have bought an RTX 5090 D in Asia (the variant of the flagship made for that region).
Although almost all of these reports have appeared in Asia, appearing in Chiphell, Baidu and Bilibili, as Wccftech noticed, and involves manufacturers of graphics cards such as Manli or colorful, there are two problems reported in Reddit of the owners of an ASUS RTX 5090 (The original poster and a monitoring claim in that thread).
It is worth noting that RTX 5080 graphics cards are not affected by these apparent problems.
Analysis: PCIE compatibility problems?
What is happening here? Well, that is a complicated to download, and for now, we have to give Nvidia the benefit of the doubt, at least with respect to the stories of the graphics cards RTX 5090 that are fried in some way, take that with a whole condiment pile.
However, problems with the new graphics controller that make the RTX 5090 not recognized by the system certainly seem very real. In fact, this problem was observed in some revisions of the flagship, and it is something that could be wrapped in PCIE 5.0 compatibility.
The solution for some, as noted in Reddit’s thread with the ASUS RTX 5090, is to go to the BIOS and go down to PCIE 4.0 instead. Yes, that will mean a slight loss of performance, but it is not so great (and it will only be temporary luckily, since when things are resolved, you can return).
However, this Drop To-Pcie-4.0 plan is not helping everyone, and the trick did not work for RTX 5090 owned by the original poster in Reddit. They have had to send their return table to Nvidia, and the Green team now investigates the problem, they tell us.
This is still one to monitor closely, then, for the moment. Of course, with very few RTX 5090 graphics cards, due to a seriously limited stock, anyway, the problems are probable are probable.
We have communicated with Nvidia to see if the company can shed some light on this matter, and we will update this story with any answer.
