The test was also a testament to the power of Nvidia’s upcoming multi-frame generation. With DLSS 4 and 4x frame generation enabled, as well as DLSS set to Performance, the RTX 5090 was hitting a whopping 290 fps and over 40ms of latency. This was with Nvidia’s Reflex 1, as Reflex 2 wasn’t available for this test.

Zotac's RTX 5090 Extreme Infinity graphics card is the first to be spotted sporting an official 600W TGP rating, up from the default 575W.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang revealed the RTX 50-series GPUs during a CES keynote this evening, announcing a $1,999 RTX 5090, a $999 RTX 5080, a $749 RTX 5070 Ti, and a $549 RTX 5070. Nvidia’s new RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 GPUs will both be available on January 30th, with the RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 to follow in February.

For many, specs will be the main point of comparison between the RTX 5090 and RTX 4090. That makes sense given that the Blackwell GPU will use a shiny new architecture paired with 32GB of faster GDDR7 VRAM and enhanced AI abilities, but it's worth noting that on-paper figures don't always translate performance-wise.

Not convinced RTX 5000 is a winner? Folks worried about a reliance on ‘fake frames’ may not be that impressed with these fresh benchmarks.

The first of NVIDIA's RTX 5000 GPUs is expected at the end of January, and the company has released details surrounding non-DLSS performance. Here's what you need to know.
