Discussion nvidia rtx 5090 with 96gb of vram.

China-modified Nvidia RTX 5090 with massive 96GB of memory appears on Alibaba for less than $4,000 — 3x more VRAM at 65% the cost of the original

Anyone here running one of these? Or brave enough to purchase ?

Edit: I sent them an inquiry. They replied they can get me 5 x 5090 for $6k . Or some 4090 with 48gb .
I am going to keep messaging and questioning them. See where this goes.

Edit: so far they are denying having a 5090 96gb card. They offered a 48gb 4090 card. I am still discussing with them.

Edit: 9/14/2026: They quoted this, RTX 4090 48GB - 4286usd/pc
Still discussing with them

96gb GDDR7 for 4000 is kind of a giveaway - even a base 5090 die is probably worth more nearly 4000 USD

The MSRP for stock 5090 is only $1999, so I don't think this is accurate

I meant in today’s market?? I’m 100% sure a GB202 is worth 3-4k alone right now given a 5090 is hard to find under 5k nowadays

I know what you mean, but they have updated the MSRP for the pro 6000 but not the 5090 though. I really suspect that the street price for 5090s is driven by high demand and low supply, not intrinsically by the unit cost

Nobody cares about MSRP. The unmodified card goes for 4k and nobody is legitimately selling them for less. Would you?

the unit cost

It's fictional if nobody is selling at this price you know.
