Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090 is the fastest PC graphics card money can buy, and it asserts the company’s dominance in a product category that it founded itself on so many years ago.

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.

To accelerate V-Ray, Autodesk Arnold, Lumion, and other 3D renderers supported by NVIDIA Studio Drivers, the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs inside BOXX systems feature DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation which also delivers superior image quality by multiplying frame rates by up to eight times over traditional rendering.

Nvidia has lifted the embargo on review benchmarks for its RTX 5090. Just how fast is it versus the RTX 4090 and AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX?

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.

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.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 is a powerful upgrade to an already overpowered enthusiast-grade GPU, and in a lot of ways, this card is so good that it's largely superfluous for just about anyone who isn't in it for the pure flex of owning it.

A $2,000 video card for consumers shouldn't exist. The GeForce RTX 5090, like the $1,599 RTX 4090 before it, is more a flex by NVIDIA than anything truly meaningful for most gamers. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said as much when he revealed the GPU at CES 2025,

Finding an RTX 5090 FE at MSRP would be lucky, but does anyone really need this power-hungry monster with its heightened temperatures?
