NVIDIA plans to release the GeForce RTX 5090 DD graphics card for Chinese customers. The company must follow American export rules that limit powerful computer chips. China received the RTX 5090 D graphics card during January but authorities banned sales after new restrictions. The DD model features fewer cores and less memory than previous versions. NVIDIA designed the new card to meet government export requirements.
The RTX 5090 DD contains 14,080 CUDA cores compared to 21,760 cores from the standard model. Graphics memory drops from 32 GB to 24 GB across a smaller 384-bit connection. Gaming performance could fall between 20 and 30 percent compared to the full RTX 5090. MEGAsizeGPU shared details about the upcoming graphics card through online leaks. The company expects to price the DD version around $1500 instead of the regular $1999 cost.
