Blower-style GPUs have mostly exited the mainstream due to how thermally inefficient they were in conventional setups. However, they still hold an important place in the server segment where clusters of GPUs are stacked next to each other in an open-air environment. China has been leading the wave for these for a while, and now Videocardz has spotted even more SKUs recently added to the collection.
In specific, we're talking about Nvidia's Blackwell family, or the RTX 50-series, where gaming variants of the flagship RTX 5090 have been stripped apart and retrofitted inside blower-style shrouds. So, these are not official partner cards, but rather aftermarket solutions. This goes for both the anomalously recurrent RTX 5090 32 GB that is banned in China, and the nerfed 5090D, plus the 5090D V2 with less VRAM.
