PNY came in strong at COMPUTEX 2025 with a mix of flash and function. The spotlight was on two stunning chrome-plated graphics cards, but the rest of the booth had something for both minimalist builders and RGB fans alike.
Chrome-Plated RTX 5090 and 5080: Made for the Show, Not for Sale (Yet)
One of the most eye-catching displays this year came from PNY. Sitting under the lights were two fully chrome-plated graphics cards, an RTX 5090 and an RTX 5080. Everything from the cooler shroud to the heatsink and backplate was covered in a high-gloss chrome finish, with the PCB being the only component left untouched.
When we asked if these would be available for purchase, PNY confirmed that these are strictly showpieces for COMPUTEX 2025, created to commemorate their 40th anniversary. However, they did mention that they might consider producing them if there is enough demand. So if you want to see one of these in your own build, now is the time to let them know.
RTX 5060 Models: Minimalist for Small Builds, RGB for the Bold
Beyond the chrome, PNY also introduced their latest RTX 5060 models with options that suit both sides of the style spectrum.
For those who like to keep things simple, PNY is offering two clean-cut RTX 5060 cards with no RGB at all. One comes in a dual-fan layout while the other uses a single-fan design. Both have compact form factors, making them a great fit for small form factor builds or minimalist systems that don’t need all the extra lights.
For those who still enjoy some flair in their rig, PNY has the RTX 5060 Epic-X edition. It features a triple-fan cooler and full RGB lighting, making it a solid pick for gamers who want both performance and visual impact.
Final Thoughts
From flashy showpieces to no-nonsense cards built for real-world systems, PNY brought a nice balance to COMPUTEX 2025. While the chrome cards are just concept models for now, they definitely caught attention. And with a mix of minimalist and RGB-equipped RTX 5060 options on the table, PNY made sure to cover both ends of the builder spectrum.
On a related note, I really hope PNY considers simplifying their graphics card names; they’re just too long.
