Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition review: Blackwell commences its reign with a few stumbles

 

Quote

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition has arrived — or at least, the reviews have arrived. It's the fastest GPU we've ever tested, most of the time, and we expect things will continue to improve as drivers mature in the coming weeks. When it lands on retail shelves, the RTX 5090 will undoubtedly reign as one of the best graphics cards around for the next several years.

The card itself — as well as AIB (add-in board) partner cards using the RTX 5090 GPU — won't go on sale until January 30. Once it does, good luck acquiring one. It's an extreme GPU with a $1,999 price tag, though there will certainly be some well-funded gamers looking to upgrade. It also features new AI-centric features, including native FP4 support, and that will very likely generate a lot of interest outside of the gaming realm. With 32GB of VRAM and 3.4 PetaFLOPS of FP4 compute, it should easily eclipse any other consumer-centric GPU in AI workloads.
