China gets to pay full price for NVIDIA's garbage RTX 5090 D V2

Colorful has posted four RTX 5090 D V2 graphics card models on the JD commerce platform ahead of tomorrow's China launch. NVIDIA created this downgraded variant to meet revised US export restrictions that halted original RTX 5090 D shipments. The new model reduces memory from 32GB to 24GB GDDR7 with 384-bit bandwidth limitations.

Pricing begins at 20,699 Yuan, approximately $2,880, with other models reaching 20,999 Yuan. These figures contradict earlier reports suggesting costs around 14,000 Yuan, representing an $830 reduction from standard RTX 5090 D pricing. Current listings suggest Chinese consumers will pay identical amounts for reduced specifications.

Original RTX 5090 D inventory has reportedly sold out, with units reaching global markets at $5,000 prices. Some standard RTX 5090 models enter China through smuggling operations and undergo conversion to artificial intelligence processors, while modified circuit boards enter supply chains through unauthorized channels.
