In a galaxy not so far away, Nvidia is channeling the Force for Star Wars Day with a lightsaber-worthy giveaway. To mark May the 4th, the tech giant announced it will award two of its highly anticipated GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards to lucky fans—a prize that could make even a Sith Lord turn to the light side.
The giveaway, revealed via Nvidia’s official Twitter account (@NVIDIAGeForce), comes as anticipation builds for the next generation of its flagship GPUs. While the RTX 5090 has yet to officially launch, leaks and rumors have painted it as a performance behemoth. According to a recent report by GSMGoTech, the card is expected to push power limits to a staggering 575W, promising groundbreaking advancements in ray tracing, AI-driven DLSS, and 4K/8K gaming performance. Industry insiders speculate it could deliver up to 70% faster speeds than its predecessor, the RTX 4090, cementing its status as a must-have for PC enthusiasts.
“May the 4th be with you—and your gaming rig,” Nvidia teased in its Twitter announcement, encouraging fans to participate for a chance to wield “unlimited power.” The contest, open globally, requires entrants to retweet the post, follow @NVIDIAGeForce, and comment with their dream gaming or creative setup using the hashtag #RTX5090Giveaway. Winners will be selected randomly on May 6th, with the GPUs shipping ahead of the card’s expected late-2025 release.
The RTX 5090’s rumored specs have sparked both excitement and debate. Beyond its 575W power draw, the card is said to feature 24,576 CUDA cores, 48GB of next-gen GDDR7 memory, and a revamped Ada Lovelace architecture. While such specs could redefine high-end gaming, they’ve also raised questions about cooling demands and PSU requirements—issues Nvidia will need to address head-on.
For now, though, the focus is on the giveaway. With only two units available, competition is sure to be fierce. As one Reddit user quipped, “Winning this would be like finding a fully operational Death Star—except it actually fits in your PC.”
Terms and conditions apply, so hopefuls should act fast: entries close within 48 hours of the tweet. Whether you’re a Jedi Master of game development or a Padawan of streaming, this is one contest you won’t want to miss.
Nvidia’s Star Wars Day stunt isn’t just a nod to fans—it’s a strategic power play to keep the hype train at lightspeed. After all, in the battle for GPU supremacy, the high ground matters.
