Gigabyte is celebrating 40 years in business with a limited-time promotion in Taiwan, offering one gram of pure gold with every Aorus GeForce RTX 5090 Infinity graphics card purchase.
The promotion, listed on the official Aorus Taiwan website, runs from May 25 to June 7 and is limited to residents of Taiwan. Buyers who qualify will receive one gram of 999 pure gold with each card purchase, while supplies last. Gigabyte describes the reward only as a “gold item,” leaving it unclear whether customers will receive a commemorative piece or something tied directly to the graphics card.
Customers who want to claim the gold must pre-order an Aorus RTX 5090 Infinity during the promotion and register through the official Gigabyte Taiwan website. One detail stands out, though: the registration deadline is listed as 11:59 p.m. Taiwan time on May 10, a date that comes before the pre-order period begins. Registration also requires an invoice from an authorized retailer for the qualifying model.
The Aorus RTX 5090 Infinity is priced at NT$165,000 in Taiwan, or roughly $5,254 based on current exchange rates. By comparison, one gram of gold is worth about $143.50, making the promotional bonus a relatively small addition to the card’s overall cost.
Released earlier this month after weeks of leaks, the Aorus RTX 5090 Infinity comes equipped with 32 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 512-bit interface and uses a triple-slot design. Gigabyte has paired the card with its Windforce Hyperburst cooling system, which combines three fans, a direct-touch vapor chamber, and superconducting heat pipes. The design also features a square PCB similar to Nvidia’s Founders Edition cards and uses a single vertically positioned 16-pin power connector instead of the dual 16-pin setup common on many custom RTX 5090 models. Out of the box, the card ships with a boost clock of 2,730 MHz, up from the reference speed of 2,407 MHz.
Gigabyte seems likely to expand the Infinity branding across more of the RTX 5000 lineup. Although no additional models have been officially announced, the company recently registered RTX 5080 Infinity, RTX 5070 Ti Infinity, RTX 5070 Infinity, and RTX 5060 Infinity with the Eurasian Economic Commission, suggesting a wider release could follow.
