CyberPowerPC Implements Testing for RTX 50-Series GPUs to Address Missing ROPs Issue

The system integrator guarantees its gaming PCs will ship with GPUs that have the correct number of ROPs, following Nvidia's confirmation of a rare production issue.

• Nvidia confirmed that less than 0.5% of RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070 Ti GPUs were shipped with fewer ROPs than specified, potentially reducing performance by up to 5%.
• ROP units are critical GPU components responsible for pixel processing and rendering tasks, with missing units potentially impacting gaming performance in some titles.
• CyberPowerPC has introduced a program to test and ensure the correct ROP count in all RTX 50-series GPUs before shipping their systems to customers.
• The issue, caused by a production anomaly, has been resolved according to Nvidia, and affected GPUs are eligible for replacement through their board manufacturers.
• Other system integrators, such as Maingear, have also acknowledged the problem but report no affected GPUs in their inventory so far.
