We’re less than a week out from NVIDIA’s CES 2025 keynote, where the brand is expected to announce and launch the GeForce RTX 50 Series. In conjunction with the LAN 50-hour gaming marathon that is scheduled to take place tomorrow morning, hardware leakster site Videocardz’s eagle-eyes may have picked out aesthetic details from a GeForce Garage video.
The 40-second video teaser shows off a silhouette of a desktop PC rig with an alleged RTX 50 Series GPU at the heart of the system. Again, it’s just a silhouette but through the magic of image enhancement tools, the site was able to brighten it up and…well, it definitely looks like a new cooler shroud design, particularly for what we’re assuming is the Founders Edition.
For a start, you can see the angle of the new 12VHPWR power connector is angled according to the width of the GPU spine, similar to what NVIDIA did for its RTX 30 Series Founders Edition cards. Specifically, the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090.
It also looks as if NVIDIA is reverting to the conventional dual front fan design but, as another reminder, the image is dark and even with the brightness enhanced, it’s difficult to tell. Personally, we hope that isn’t the case as this writer appreciates the dual axis flowthrough design of the card. Oh, and there’s an LED strip that can be seen too.
Obviously, all this is mere speculation and not critical analysis. At the end of the day, we’re still going to have to wait for NVIDIA to official pull the veil back from the RTX 50 Series, come 6 January.
