We just got our first hint of the RTX 6090, but it’s not what you think

As we’re all counting down the days to a possible announcement of Nvidia’s RTX 50-series, GPU brands are already looking ahead to what comes next. A new trademark filing with the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) reveals just how far ahead some manufacturers are thinking, because it mentions not just the Nvidia RTX 5090, but also an RTX 5090 Ti; there’s even an RTX 6090 Ti. Still, it’ll be a long while before we can count the RTX 60-series among the best graphics cards, so what is this all about?

The trademark registration filing, first spotted by harukaze5719 on X (formerly Twitter) and shared by VideoCardz, comes from a company called Sinotex International Industrial Ltd. This company is responsible for the GPU brand Ninja, which doesn’t have much of a market presence in the U.S.

Still, the company might have big plans going forward. The filing spans the entire RTX 50-series lineup, including cards that no one’s heard of, and cards that most likely won’t ever see the light of day. We’ve got it all, starting with the RTX 5050 (including Ti and Super versions) and going all the way to the RTX 5090 Ti (or RTX 5090 Super). We’re talking every card you could think of is being trademarked in its basic, Ti, and Super versions. The interesting part is that there are no Ti Super cards, so perhaps the current-gen RTX 4070 Ti Super will put an end to that naming scheme.

Ninja also filed for the entire RTX 60-series lineup, starting with the RTX 6050 and including cards like the RTX 6070 and the RTX 6090. Again, all the GPUs also come in Super and Ti flavors. That lineup is most likely going to be built based on Rubin architecture, but we don’t really know anything else beyond that. We’re unlikely to see any of these GPUs before 2027 or, at best, late 2026.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that Ninja is planning to launch all of these GPUs. These filings don’t mean much beyond trademark registration, so it’s hard to read too much into it — apart from the timing. We’ve been getting more and more signs of an imminent launch for the RTX 50-series, and this is another crumb to add to the pile.

We know that Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang is set to hold a keynote during CES 2025 in January, but hardware leaker kopite7kimi also said that Blackwell is coming soon. The RTX 5090 and the RTX 5080 will likely be the first to launch, although the RTX 5070 is not out of the realm of possibility. As for the RTX 5090 Ti that Ninja has already trademarked, if that’s ever going to be a thing, I wouldn’t expect to see it for at least a few months to a year.

Everything you need to know about buying a GPU in 2024
RTX 4090.

The graphics card, also known as the GPU, is arguably one of the most exciting components in any PC build. Alongside the processor, your graphics card often has the greatest impact on the overall performance of your PC. That makes it a pretty high-stakes purchase, especially if you consider that GPUs can get pretty expensive.

The GPU market has a lot to offer, and that's regardless of your needs and your budget. Whether you're aiming for something super cheap to support some light browsing or a behemoth to handle the most GPU-intensive games, you have lots of options. In this guide, we'll show you what to look out for so that you can pick the best GPU that fits your budget and needs.
Nvidia, AMD, or Intel?
Consumer graphics cards are generally split into two categories -- integrated and discrete graphics. Since you're here, you're most likely looking for a discrete (or dedicated) GPU, and that's what we're going to focus on in this article.

I’m jealous — someone scored an RTX 4070 Super for $49 on Amazon

The RTX 4070 Super is one of the best graphics cards you can buy, and it has a price to match, with most models going for $600 on Amazon. However, one lucky Redditor scored a model for just $49. No, it wasn't some steep sale, and most people would see a price like that and assume it's a scam. But sure enough, two days after finding a Gigabyte RTX 4070 Super Gaming OC for $48.94 on Amazon, the card showed up in the mail.

You should absolutely assume that a price that's too good to be true is a scam on Amazon. We've seen just this year how scammers can infiltrate the third-party listings on Amazon to sell fake graphics cards, but this listing for the RTX 4070 Super was different. It was sold and shipped by Amazon Canada and there was only one card in stock, suggesting it was either mismarked or someone seriously needed some extra warehouse space.

If AMD lets Nvidia run rampant, we’re all in trouble
The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX graphics card.

Both Nvidia and AMD are expected to launch new graphics cards within the next few months. It's no secret as to which of the two lineups has a higher chance of topping the charts with one of the best GPUs.

AMD is said to be sitting out of the high-end race this generation, and although this could be the right approach for AMD, it's actually really bad news for Nvidia fans. As a gamer, letting Nvidia monopolize the consumer GPU sphere is the last thing that I wish for.
A not-so-heated rivalry
