Performance testing is still under an information embargo, but today we can unpack the box, look at its contents and introduce the card in detail. and take a closer look at the card in detail. The Founders Edition design is unlike anything we’ve seen before in graphics cards. The design and craftsmanship are precise, and when you look at the dimensions of its dual-slot cooler, it’s hard to believe it can cool the nearly 600W GeForce RTX 5090.
Compared to the RTX 4090, the box is half the size, but the packaging designers have gone even bigger with it. Tearing the tape around the perimeter, you’re already greeted with the first slogan “Inspired by Gamers. Enhanced by AI. Built by NVIDIA.”
After tearing off the tape and opening the lid, you will reach the second level. Another box awaits you inside the box and a small box underneath. The fold-out sides from the last generation remain, so you can easily pick up the box with the card.
Hidden in the thick bottom underneath is a small box with a power adapter and a leaflet with a QR code for a link to further resources for the card. Otherwise, there’s not much else of interest on it.
The real RTX 5090 is hidden inside a larger, paper one.
There are two handles on the front and back, when you pull them out you can crack open the box containing the card itself.
