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.

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.

In the RTX 5090, you’re getting new Neural Rendering features too — things that use an on-board AI trained with the game itself to boost fidelity and detail. Behind the scenes of any game, there’s a neural network running away to push a few key things.

In the Arusha region of Tanzania, migrating elephants trample farmland and farmers’ livelihoods. A beehive fence has proved an ingenious solution, deterring elephants, supporting crop pollination, food security, and meaningful coexistence with nature.

Nvidia say that they consider the RTX 4090's melting power adapter problem to be long fixed, and it shouldn't reappear on the upcoming RTX 5090 and RTX 5080.

Recent benchmark leaks have provided insights into the performance of NVIDIA's forthcoming RTX 5080 GPU. The RTX 5080 is set to be released alongside the RTX 5090 on January 30 and was identified in Geekbench under OpenCL and Vulkan benchmark tests.

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.

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090 starts at $1,999 before you factor in upsells from the company's partners or price increases driven by scalpers and/or genuine demand. It costs more than my entire gaming PC.

With its AI capabilities enabled, the RTX 5090 is the fastest and best-performing graphics card in the world. Can Nvidia's competitors catch up?
