Vietnamese PC Hardware Influencer Reveals First GeForce RTX 5090 GPU-Based Rig

According to I_Leak_VN, a prominent Vietnamese PC hardware influencer and leaker, the first GeForce RTX 5090 GPU-based "AI/mining/scalper" rig in the region has been unveiled. Today, they shared a post on social media showcasing a local shop's "Training AI: X7 RTX 5090 32G" build. It appears that the shop has put together this impressive setup for a special customer. An employee from Nguyễn Công PC expressed gratitude to GIGABYTE Vietnam for providing seven GeForce RTX 5090 GAMING OC graphics cards for the rig. The photos uploaded reveal the neatly arranged GPUs in an open system design.

Upon examining the watermarked images from the store, Western media outlets have drawn comparisons between the "Training AI: X7" rig and older crypto mining setups. Tom's Hardware noted the presence of multiple Super Flower Leadex 2000 W PSUs, which are capable of powering a system that could be worth over $30,000, considering the high prices of the GPUs. Wccftech's report also mentioned Nguyễn Công PC's other AI builds, including more traditional PC setups with dual MSI GeForce RTX 5090 card configurations, estimated to cost around $10,000.

The shop's choice of gaming-grade hardware is not surprising, given the performance capabilities of NVIDIA's GB202-300-A1 GPU variant. The advanced enterprise hardware from Team Green unlocks the full potential of "Blackwell" GPU designs, allowing the company to command premium prices for such equipment. Looking back to early 2024, Tiny Corp. made headlines with its "tinybox" AI platform, featuring XFX Speedster MERC310 RX 7900 XTX cards instead of AMD's Instinct MI300X accelerator.
