Nvidia Denies Reports of Missing ROPs in RTX 50-Series Laptop GPUs

While Nvidia insists no laptop GPUs are affected, reports suggest manufacturers are conducting extensive checks and delays may impact product availability.

Nvidia has categorically denied claims that its RTX 50-series laptop GPUs are affected by the 'missing ROPs' issue seen in some desktop GPUs.
The company states that all laptop GPUs have undergone standard quality checks and assures consumers that no further issues exist.
German outlet Heise Online reports manufacturers have been asked to inspect RTX 50 laptops for missing ROPs, causing delays in production and retail launches.
Nvidia's desktop GPUs, including the RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070 Ti, were previously confirmed to have a small percentage of units with missing ROPs, leading to up to an 11% performance loss in some cases.
Retail availability of RTX 50-series laptops has reportedly been postponed, with high-end models expected in March and mid-range models delayed until April or May.
