The company Camino announced a GPU server equipped with the not yet officially revealed RTX 5090plaque that must be presented by the NVIDIA only in January.
RTX 5090 Server Details
Camino servers feature cutting-edge specifications, including:
- CPU: AMD EPYC with 32 cores.
- Memory: 256GB de RAM.
- Storage: 1TB is the NVMe SSD.
- GPUs: Options with 6 or 8 RTX 5090 cards.
The advertised prices for these configurations are surprising:
- 6 GPUs: 40 thousand euros
- 8 GPUs: 50 thousand euros
According to the portal HardwareLuxxwho contacted Camino, the value per GPU is estimated at 5 thousand euros, an impressive number, even considering the high-performance hardware market. According to recent rumors, The price of the RTX 5090 should cost close to US$2,000.
The server configuration includes custom cooling, reportedly extended to the GPUs, which are installed in single-slot clusters.
Controversy
What makes the case even more intriguing is the requirement for a deposit of R$10,000 to guarantee the order. This takes pre-orders to another level, especially considering that NVIDIA has not yet made the RTX 5090 official.
Additionally, Camino is an official partner company of NVIDIA, which raises questions about how it got access to the GPUs before the official announcement. Would it be a breach of embargo?
Despite all the speculation, NVIDIA has not yet commented on the RTX 5090 or Camino servers. What seems clear, however, is that Blackwell GPUs promise to be extremely powerful — and expensive.
Although it is officially a card that is part of the GeForce line, which caters to the gaming public, the future RTX 5090, and even the RTX 4090, is a card that could make even more sense in scenarios outside the gaming universe, such as servers, or tasks that require high computational power.
