RTX 5090 Is Wild - Nvidia Blackwell Specs & Performance
So, I think it’s no secret that when Nvidia first launched the RTX 40 series most buyers were pretty disappointed by the insanely high prices of cards like the RTX 4080.

Now, thankfully AMD did offer higher rasterization performance at a lower price with their RX 7900 XTX, but since then Nvidia has released their Super refresh bringing much better price to performance, especially for the RTX 4080 Super which is now typically just $50 more than the 7900 XTX, and while the 7900 XTX should still be a bit faster and does come equipped with 20GB of VRAM; 4 more than the RTX 4080 Super, many people are now choosing to go with the RTX 4080 Super instead thanks to Nvidia’s better upscaling and ray tracing performance, and this is why I think AMD is in big trouble.

We’re getting closer and closer to the release of the RTX 50 series every day, and I suspect this will be a make it or break it point for both companies and especially AMD as, as the RTX 50 series leaks were about to look at point to a drastic change in how GPUs may be used going forward.

RTX 5090
Performance increase: overkill
Price: 24999$
TDP: requires a nuclear power plant as a PSU

[DannyWilliamH]

RTX 5090 MSRP: $98, 000

IMPROVEMENT OVER 4090: 8%

[wavelogic]

Just need a way to regrow my kidneys once every GPU generation 😂

[englematic]

Gonna be a $4K gpu. AMD isnt in trouble as long as they serve the mid range with $400 1440p GPUs.

[shrapnel]

Reminder the XTX has 24Gbs of Vram not 20 as stated thats the standard XT so thats 8 Gb more than the 4080 super

[literalpotato]

5090Ti would have 24TB VRAM and will need to be powered by the fucking sun

[veckgames]

2.2x faster in Nvidia's lingo means:

2.2x+ more expensive than 4090
2.2x+ more power draw than 4090
2.2x+ more exclusive features than 4090

[josiahsuarez]

5090 will be the ultimate final GPU before the end times 😢😮

[frankierizzo]

They're hitting the limits of their monolithic dies hopefully they have some groundbreaking new tech

[KevinKnightCanDance]

will the 5090 finally have 2.1 display port

[JavoCover]

I really hoped for AMD to do a new Radeon 7 so they can put all their AI and RT.
I only care about rasterization, why not make a huge rasterizer monster.

[elvertmack]

Passed on the 4090...but definitely getting the 5090 10k saved up Tesla gigawatt charging station and fire suppression getting built. I'm ready.

[bittripper]

The 5000 series will disappear into the AI Black hole

[THU]

What I want from the 50 series is 4080 performance at 200 W with 16/18 GB of VRAM (the second option is possible with 3 GB modules that Micron announced). I am never buying a 300+ W heater ever again.

RTX 5090:
fake frames ON = 290fps
fake frames OFF = 49fps

in regards to wider Ray tracing support in games : it doesn't matter what the top end, sell-your-house-to-afford, GPU can do . what matters is what 300-400 video card can do, or what the 500-600 dollar video card can do. that's where it really matters for RT adoption going forward. if nvidia keeps kneecapping their low, low-mid, mid, and mid-high end cards with not enough vram to handle RT at higher resolutions. then RT will still have a few more generations to go before complete market saturation.

modern gaming was at it's best, and video card sales were at their best on teh 1000 series because we got to apoint where 1080p was the Main resolution and even the low end cards could pull it of at 60FPS with settings high . and the higher tier cards offered 4k gaming at 60+ fps at the time for a few years.

now here's the problem going into RT. 1440p has become the main resolution, soon 4k will be, but the low end cards of the 3000 series and 4000 series have no hope of running RT at 4k with 60+FPS. if this trend continues with the 5000 series then it will also knee cap RT's further development as well.

the 5060 is gonna have to have 12 gb bare minimum the 5070 will have to go 16gb and this means the 5080 will have to go atleast to 20gb.
the 5060 wil have to be able to atleast match a 4070 super , the 5070 wil have beat a 4080 by at least 15% and the 5080 wil have to atleast match the 4090, but i don't see this happening . with nividia's AI chip mentality they'll want to cut massive corners on any chip below 1000 bucks, because they will already view a $1600 5090 as a loss because that silicon could be put to an AI chip that sells at 40-60k per card, instead of a card taht only sells for $1600. they''ll view a $2500 rtx titan as a loss too.

yes that is the point we are at; where money and greed will hold back lower cost technological advancement. here's what i actualy expect from the 5000 series

amazing RTX titan that cost 2k+
amazing 5090 that cost north of $1600
a 5080 that is about 10 % faster than a 4080 super, but will cost north of $1, 100
a 5070 that is maybe 5-10% faster than the 4070 super but will cost $750-800
a 5060 that about 5% better than a 4060ti or on par with a 4070 (non super), but cost $600

and nvidia will be like " but DLSS 4.0 with frame Gen 2.0 ! it's 5X faster than last gen !!" and they'll compare last gen dlss and FG off, to 5000 series with DLSS and FG on and the reality is it'll only be 50% faster than last gen with those techs turned off on last gen.
the way nvidia employees have constantly tried to sell us of DLSS and FG as the future is why i think this is how it'll really go down. like the dumb-a that said FG frames are more real than actual raw frames.

god i loved the 2005-2018 era of pc gaming . the era where a $1000-$1200 dollar pc could have you playing 99% of games at max setting on the current highest resolution. i swear if i have to struggle to play games at max settings on a pc that is gonna cost me $2, 500-3000 dollars, or put up with consoles that have NO physical media at all, i'll just be done with gaming. I'm 44 and i don't have the engergy for headaches when i'm trying to just game or enjoy what i spend money on.

EDIT: the XTX matches the 3090 in RT not the 4090.

[omnymisa]

We need the competition to get up there really, otherwise prices are gonna keep being bad

[frankjohannessen]

would they really release another Titan with just 24GB? The TITAN RTX from 20-series in 2018 had 24GB.

[MisterWealth]

A 24gb card still? It has to be at minimum 32gb
