The upcoming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, the flagship of the RTX 50 "Blackwell" series, is rumored to feature a significantly larger GPU die than its predecessor. According to leaks, the GB202 GPU will measure 744mm², a 22% increase over the RTX 4090's 609mm² AD102 die.
GB202 GPU Size and Specifications
According to MEGAsizeGPU, the GB202 GPU will be approximately 24x31mm (744mm²) with a package size of 63x65mm (4095mm²). This represents a substantial increase in both die and package size compared to the RTX 4090 (609mm² die, 2601mm² package).
While a larger die doesn't necessarily mean higher power consumption or temperatures, it's worth noting that the GB202 is still smaller than the 754mm² Turing TU102 GPU.
