NVIDIA Details Cool Engineering That Lead To A Smaller GeForce RTX 5090

By now, if you're reading this site, you've almost certainly seen plenty of the GeForce RTX 5090—and if you haven't, check out some of our past coverage. Contrary to expectations, the card and its cooler are actually incredibly small in comparison with the GeForce RTX 4090, to say nothing of the massive prototypes that we saw. Despite that, NVIDIA says it stays cool, something we'll certainly verify in our upcoming review.

If you, like us, have wondered how that's possible, then you should check out the video that the company just posted up on its official YouTube channel. Titled "Designing the Founders Edition," the twelve-minute-plus video goes quite in-depth disclosing not only the design of the GPU and its cooler, but also the reasons for the way the card is designed.
