Nvidia global PR director Ben Berraondo :We have identified a rare issue affecting ..GeForce RTX 5090 / 5070 TI have fewer ROP (it's bad)
This is bad..After the initial report , looks like 5080 series is affected as well. Nvdia has no idea of how many cards are impacted. While they said a 0.5%, is way more based only on the fact 5080 is not even mentioned as impacted when it actually is

More interesting is enthusiasts and the lucky few that got the cards but now deal with "the missing ROP" are saying NVDIA is downplaying the damage or the performance loss to the cards by 8 to 1.
Looks like cut cost to maximize profit.
NVDA has a mess on their hands and not sure this is going to translate into their enterprise cards release
This cant be fixed with a firmware update or a driver update..NVDA has to physically replace the cards
