Yet more Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 GPUs are running slower due to missing parts

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50 series woes are only set to drag on as yet more disappointing news has made the rounds. Remember the issue surrounding missing Raster Operations Pipelines (ROPs) on the RTX 5090, RTX 5090D, and RTX 5070 Ti? Well, it's also affecting the RTX 5080. Why is this such a big deal? Fewer ROPs result in worse overall performance. This has all been put down to a rare manufacturing issue, but this won't provide any comfort to those with an affected GPU.
