Overview

• The RTX 5090, priced at $2,000, is Nvidia's latest high-end GPU, boasting a 30-40% performance improvement over the RTX 4090 in most 4K gaming benchmarks.
• The GPU introduces DLSS Multi-Frame Generation, allowing up to three AI-generated frames per rendered frame, but concerns remain about its impact on latency and image quality.
• The RTX 5090’s power consumption peaks at 573 watts, significantly higher than its predecessor, and requires a robust cooling setup for optimal performance.
• Scalpers have already listed the RTX 5090 for prices as high as $7,000 on eBay, ahead of its official January 30 release date.
• Nvidia's marketing claims around DLSS performance gains have been criticized as misleading, with reviewers urging consumers to focus on native rendering performance.
