Nvidia has made some pretty bold performance claims for its new GeForce RTX 5090, but is it really twice as fast as the RTX 4090?

It's RTX 5070 vs 4090, and the new $549 gaming GPU beats the former flagship graphics card in Marvel Rivals, but with a big catch.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 will cost $1,999 and looks ready to commence its reign as the fastest consumer graphics card around when it becomes available. Nvidia is touting performance improvement of up to 2X over its RTX 4090 predecessor,

The four GPUs in the lineup include the RTX 5070, RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5080, and the RTX 5090. They start off at just $549 and go up to $1999. For now, there is no information on the cheaper RTX 5060 models, but they can be expected to be somewhere in the $350 to $400 range.

We now know more details about Nvidia's upcoming GeForce RTX 5090, RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5070 graphics cards. Here's some broader specs info on every new RTX 5000 GPU.

NVidia's RTX 5090 and 5080 will be out imminently, with the 5090 commanding a head-spinning $1,999 price tag. More economical 5070 and 5070 Ti options will follow in a couple of months; the 5070 will be a relatively modest $549.

Nvidia is truly masterful at one thing: perfectly showcasing the graphics cards at the launch of a new GPU generation. This isn’t bad in itself; after all, a fruit seller at the market also advertises his bright red apples as a real treat.
