Before the GeForce RTX 5090 officially hits the shelves, Comino, a company known for crafting workstation PCs, is already offering units featuring this cutting-edge NVIDIA GPU for sale, which is quite fascinating.
NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 5090 Makes Its First Appearance in a Top-Notch Workstation by Comino, Allowing up to 8 GPUs in a Single Setup
The gaming community has been buzzing about NVIDIA’s upcoming RTX 50 series, thanks to whispers about its impressive performance boosts and new architecture. Although these GPUs aren’t expected to launch until 2025, Comino has started welcoming orders for its "Grando Server" workstation systems, equipped with eight GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs. This marks a notable event as it’s the first time NVIDIA’s latest flagship GPU has appeared in any retail form.
If you’re eager to secure a unit, Comino has provided a form to fill out. However, specific details about the system remain under wraps, other than its use of multiple RTX 5090s. It’s worth noting that these GPUs are slated for release in early 2025, and pre-orders for consumer GPUs can sometimes be sketchy, so it’s wise to tread carefully with such purchases.
Additionally, Comino might be testing the waters to gauge interest in its servers, possibly benefiting from special arrangements as an official NVIDIA partner. Still, exercising patience until the GPU’s official release is advisable, as concrete specifications will be available then.
As for what to expect, rumor has it that the GeForce RTX 5090 will boast ultra-modern features like 32 GB of GDDR7 VRAM over a 512-bit interface, reaching speeds of up to 28 Gbps and delivering 1792 GB/s of bandwidth, indicating it will pack quite the punch. Other speculations suggest a total board power (TBP) of up to 600W and 12V-2×6 power connectors. For those keen on learning more, we have a detailed roundup on the GeForce RTX 5090 available.
It’s intriguing to note that with Comino’s pre-order announcement, other manufacturers might soon jump on the bandwagon, hinting at how near we are to the RTX 5090’s long-awaited debut.
