Computex 2025: We're stalking the halls of Taiwan's biggest tech show once again to see what Nvidia, AMD, Intel, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI and more have to offer. You hear that? An RTX 5090 could be gobbling up to 1000 watts of power in a matter of time. Now that's a thought… a slightly scary one at that. Perhaps not quite 1000 watts, then. Either way, we're going to need pretty huge power supplies for this eventuality, not to mention at a certain point we'll hit the limit for what the average household power outlet can deliver.Though there is some interest in seeing how far an RTX 5090 could go with even more power coursing through its silicon. So long as it's not an RTX 5090 I've paid for myself—that sounds like a good way to kill a graphics card in a picosecond.If you've been holding out on a BTF build for this one compatibility reason, you can now find product pages for new BTF 2.5 cards, such as this ROG Astral RTX 5090 BTF Edition.Also it appears Asus is keen to get even more manufacturers into the mix with BTF: "we are welcoming more partners to join this BTF ecosystem to grow it as a new industry standard," says Chang.
