Nvidia's RTX 5090 D V2 is a crippled workstation card for China

Chinese retailers began selling the GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 graphics card with mixed performance results. Expreview benchmarks reveal gaming performance matches the original RTX 5090 D variant within one to two percent margins. The reduced memory configuration from 32GB to 24GB creates minimal impact during gaming sessions at 4K resolution. Synthetic benchmark tests demonstrate nearly identical scores across popular evaluation software. The card maintains competitive performance for consumer gaming applications.

Productivity applications suffer significant performance losses compared to the original model. Blender rendering tasks show performance gaps ranging from 10.5 percent to 19 percent across different scenes. V-Ray benchmark results indicate 7.5 percent slower CUDA performance and 24.8 percent reduced RTX performance. AI workloads experience up to 10 percent performance decreases in various testing scenarios. The reduced VRAM capacity limits professional applications, while gaming remains largely unaffected by the memory reduction.
