The most powerful of Nvidia's newest Blackwell graphics cards is a " beast ." Review after review has brought up benchmarks showcasing that when it comes to gaming, the RTX 5090 blows its predecessors and other graphics cards away. However, it appears that for many consumers, the RTX 5090 is overkill.

That extra processing power naturally translates to better performance, making the RTX 5090 the new king of 4K gaming. It’s a $1,999 GPU for anyone who wants the best 4K gaming experience, developers interested in AI performance, and creators who want to accelerate video editing.

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090 starts at $1,999 before you factor in upsells from the company's partners or price increases driven by scalpers and/or genuine demand. It costs more than my entire gaming PC.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 is here, setting a new benchmark for graphics cards. With a 32% power increase over its predecessor, the RTX 5090 promises unmatched performance, making it a game-changer for gamers and creators.

The GeForce RTX 5090 just hit PC Labs for some early benchmarking. How does it stack up against the reigning king of graphics cards? So far, it's a beast.

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090 is the most brutally fast graphics card ever introduced, augmented by new DLSS 4 technology that feels like magic. But you pay dearly for it.

In the RTX 5090, you’re getting new Neural Rendering features too — things that use an on-board AI trained with the game itself to boost fidelity and detail. Behind the scenes of any game, there’s a neural network running away to push a few key things.

Despite its power demand of 575W, a significant increase over the RTX 4090, Nvidia has managed to shrink the card's form factor. The dual-slot chassis incorporates an innovative cooling solution, maintaining temperatures below 86°C under load.
