All the news about Nvidia’s RTX 50-series GPUs
Source: The Verge added 25th Jan 2025
Nvidia’s RTX 50-series GPUs are just around the corner, with the first releases — the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 — dropping on January 30th. The RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 will follow that with their own releases in February, but some are already getting a sneak peek at the GPUs’ software benefits through DLSS 4.
Tom Warren’s Verge review of the $1,999 RTX 5090 indicates it’s expectedly a powerhouse, but not quite the generational leap that the RTX 4090 was over its own predecessor. That didn’t stop The Verge’s Sean Hollister from being impressed with the two-slot RTX 5090 Founders Edition GPU when he stuffed it into his aging small-form-factor PC.
Along with the 50-series GPUs comes DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, a software trick that may be just as big a story as the hardware itself. This latest version of DLSS uses AI to predictively generate frames, making it possible to run games at higher resolutions without taking the same framerate hit they would without DLSS 4 turned on. Gamers who are already trying DLSS 4 out in Cyberpunk 2077 using RTX 40-series GPUs report seeing huge improvements already.
We’ll be keeping up with all the news about Nvidia’s RTX 50-series GPUs right here at The Verge.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 review: a new king of 4K is here
Photo by Tom Warren / The Verge
Nvidia’s RTX 4090 was a beast of a graphics card. It was a huge GPU that delivered true 4K gaming for those who really wanted it and a huge jump in performance over the previous-generation RTX 3090. Naturally, the company’s latest top-of-the-line GPU, the GeForce RTX 5090, now has a lot of expectations riding on it when it arrives on January 30th.
But at $1,999, the RTX 5090 is steep — $400 more than the RTX 4090 Founders Edition at its launch. (It could run you even more in the form of a new power supply or higher electricity bills, especially if you want to run games like Cyberpunk 2077 in 4K.)

The RTX 5090 might be in short supply.
Nvidia’s upcoming RTX 5090 launch on January 30th might be met with limited stock, according to some system builders and retailers. PowerGPU is warning that the RTX 5090 will have poor availability, and others are warning that some cards might not arrive until February.

A first look at Nvidia’s flagship RTX 5090 compared to the RTX 4090

Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition graphics card is arriving later this month, and we’ve managed to unbox one and compare its design to the RTX 4090. Just like our first look at the RTX 5090, this isn’t a review. Performance figures, benchmarks, and impressions beyond the hardware are coming later.
The first thing that’s notable about the RTX 5090 is the packaging design has totally changed since the Founders Edition RTX 40-series. Nvidia has switched to housing the RTX 5090 inside a smaller bone-shaped gray cardboard shell that sits inside a much larger brown cardboard box.

We finally played with an RTX 5090.
Sean has been scouring CES for an RTX 5090 demo with an actually playable game. It took a while, but he found one and came away with some footage. Yeah, it looks good.

Can Nvidia’s RTX 5070 really deliver RTX 4090 performance for $549?

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made a bold claim onstage at CES earlier this week when he was introducing the next-generation RTX 50-series GPUs. “The RTX 5070, 4090 performance at $549,” said Huang. It’s a claim that’s been echoed on YouTube, TikTok, and social media networks and has generated a debate over the RTX 50 series and DLSS 4’s Multi Frame Generation.
So, can a $549 RTX 5070 really deliver the same level of performance as a $1,599 RTX 4090? The answer is yes and no, and it all comes down to a “fake frames” argument about DLSS Frame Generation that might not even be a big problem for a lot of PC gamers.

Nvidia’s China-only RTX 5090D slashes AI performance.
The China-only chip comes with 2,375 AI TOPS, compared to the 3,352 on the RTX 5090 that will launch elsewhere, as pointed out by Tom’s Hardware. US export rules prevent chipmakers like Nvidia from selling high-powered chips to China.
Despite these requirements, it seems some of the company’s advanced chips have made their way into China through smuggling, according to The Information.

Nvidia announces DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation
Nvidia is revealing a big upgrade to its Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) technology today. DLSS 4 will include new neural rendering capabilities that, on systems with the new RTX 50 Series GPUs, can do Multi Frame Generation, generating “up to three additional frames per traditionally rendered frame, working in unison with the complete suite of DLSS technologies to multiply frame rates by up to 8X over traditional brute-force rendering.”
According to Nvidia, that’s a big enough upgrade to make 4K 240fps, fully ray-traced gaming possible. Also, in an upgrade that will work on all GeForce RTX GPUs, DLSS games with Ray Reconstruction, Super Resolution, and DLAA can be updated to new transformer AI models that use the same tech as AI tools like ChatGPT, which it says is a first for the graphics industry.

Nvidia’s new app might launch with the RTX 50-series.
Nvidia’s beta all-in-one app is set to replace GeForce experience later this year, and it might fully launch with the RTX 50-series. Hardware leaker kopite7kimi says it will be released officially together with Nvidia’s next-gen GPUs. Nvidia is holding a CES 2025 keynote in January, where we’re expecting to see the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080.
