Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 video card with DLSS 4, DisplayPort 2.1b, ​​HDMI 2.1a introduced. Price – $1999

At CES 2025, the official presentation of the new generation of GeForce RTX gaming graphics cards took place. The “green” showed the world four GeForce RTX 50-series 3D accelerators based on Nvidia Blackwell graphics processors. All of them will be available for purchase by the end of winter.

The flagship GeForce RTX 5090 is based on the Nvidia GB202 graphics processor. This GPU is manufactured using TSMC 4N technology, has an area of ​​750 mm² and physically has over 92 billion transistors. The flagship Nvidia Blackwell has 21,760 CUDA cores, 170 RT cores, and a 512-bit memory bus through which the GPU interacts with 32 gigabytes of GDDR7.

At the same time, the GeForce RTX 5080 and RTX 5070 Ti are based on the Nvidia GB203 chip, which can be called half of the GB202. It is characterized by an area of ​​378 mm and 45.6 billion transistors. The older video card uses a configuration with 10,752 CUDA cores, while the second one has cut their number to 8,960 units. Both new products have a 256-bit memory interface and 16 gigabytes of GDDR7.

The GeForce RTX 5070 video card received an Nvidia GB205 graphics processor, which is characterized by an area of ​​263 mm and 31 billion transistors. It operates with 6,144 CUDA cores and is equipped with 12 gigabytes of GDDR7 memory with a 192-bit bus.

Among the features of the GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards, it is worth noting support for Nvidia DLSS 4 technology, PCI Express 5.0, DisplayPort 2.1b and HDMI 2.1a interfaces. Nvidia also provided the results of its own tests. However, it should be remembered that when measuring performance, the new graphics cards used DLSS Multi-Frame Generation frame generation technology. You can compare 3D accelerators under the same conditions in independent reviews.
