NVIDIA Responds To Bricked RTX 5090/5090D GPUs, Says It Is “Investigating” The Reported Issues – Wccftech
After several reports of supposedly bricked GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs emerged, NVIDIA started investigating the matter.The reports of bricked RTX 5090 GPUs and the Chinese variant RTX 5090D have been piling up for a few days. With no clear solution in sight, many have tried troubleshooting the issue through various methods, only to find the issue being persistent in most cases.While some have claimed to mitigate the issue through unusual methods, the vast majority who are currently facing this haven’t had good luck with their GPUs. Since the problem isn’t uncommon now, it has reached NVIDIA, which has finally responded. PC Gamer reports that NVIDIA has told them that,We are investigating the reported issues with the RTX 50 series.NVIDIA Rep to PCGamerAnd that’s it! Nothing in detail has been forwarded, but it does show that NVIDIA has finally taken notice of the matter. If you aren’t aware of the problem, then you should refer to the article we published a few days ago, detailing the issue. Simply put, several RTX 5090 and RTX 5090D were unable to power up the monitor display and were only showing black screens once the driver was updated.This was common across most reports and as soon as the users installed the latest NVIDIA driver. The issue has become quite complex on various levels to the point that even after rolling back to the previous driver version, the GPU couldn’t be recognized on the computer. Some users have reported that even resetting the BIOS couldn’t do anything and the GPU would simply refuse to show up in Device Manager or even BIOS as well.The root cause is unknown, but some reports suggest that this is due to architectural or driver compatibility issues and not related to the hardware itself. We will have to wait for NVIDIA’s response on this since nobody has found the solution to the problem that could fix the bricking of RTX 5090/5090D permanently.Some posts on wccftech.com may contain affiliate links.
