China-modified Nvidia RTX 5090 with 96GB VRAM surfaces on Alibaba

By PulseAugur Editorial · [3 sources] ·

A Chinese company, Shenzhen Suqiao Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., is reportedly selling a modified Nvidia RTX 5090 graphics card with 96GB of memory on Alibaba for $3,888. This is three times the VRAM of the original RTX 5090 and offered at a significantly lower price. The modification is likely driven by the demand for AI workloads, and while the listing raises some technical questions regarding memory type and speed, the manufacturer's established reputation lends some credibility to the claim. AI

IMPACT Potentially offers a more affordable, high-memory GPU solution for AI model training and inference.
