CES 2025: Palit and Gainward showcase custom RTX 50 graphics cards

At CES this week, Nvidia launched its new RTX 50 series graphics cards, which naturally means that lots of board partners are now showing off their upcoming custom-cooled models. Today, Leo stops by to meet with Palit to take a look at all of their upcoming graphics cards.

The Palit Group consists of both the Palit and Gainward brands. For custom-cooled models, Palit has the Master series of graphics cards, available in both black and white with a glossy finish on the heatsink – something we rarely see on graphics cards. Fortunately, we got to them before too many people had a chance to get their fingerprints all over them. These coolers use a dual-fan setup with a large vent on the back of the card. If you prefer a triple-fan cooler, then the Palit GamingPro series of graphics cards should be your point of call.

On the Gainward side, we take a look at the Phantom and Phoenix series RTX 50 graphics cards, which features a triple-fan cooler with a blackened shroud and a simple RGB logo in the centre. Both versions have similar setups, but slightly different designs and we expect that there may be differences in out-of-the-box clock speeds, but those aren't confirmed for now.

If you want to max out your aesthetics, then the Palit Game Rock RTX 50 series graphics card should be up your alley, as it features a hefty amount of RGB lighting around all three fans on the cooler.

The Palit and Gainward RTX 50 series graphics cards will be available starting later this month with the launch of the RTX 5080 and 5090 graphics cards, followed by RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 in February.
