The cat is out of the bag: Nvidia officially presented the Geforce RTX 5090 at today's CES 2025. The flagship of the Blackwell generation is the expected monster GPU - in every respect, because the recommended retail price is also included1.999 US-Dollarinto new price regions.
A price in euros has now also been set: “From 2,329 euros” the RTX 5090 will be available over the counter in this country. For comparison: The RTX 4090 was priced at 1,949 euros when it was released at the end of 2022.
You can find all other important announcements from Nvidia at CES in the following articles.When it comes to pricing, the RTX 5080 is particularly notable because, in contrast to the RTX 5090, it is clearly cheaper than its predecessor.
The details about the RTX 5090 follow directly after the Nvidia keynote video embedded below.

This is the RTX 5090
The price is the only unknown parameter of the RTX 5090, as the technical data presented for the new Nvidia GPU has already been leaked several times in the past few weeks.
With two slots, the RTX 5090 is surprisingly thin - the manufacturer also lists the following specifications for the RTX 5090 on the official website:
| Nvidia Geforce RTX 5090 | Nvidia Geforce RTX 4090 | |
|---|---|---|
| graphics chip | GB202-300 170 streaming multiprocessors 21,760 CUDA Cores | AD102-300 128 streaming multiprocessors 16,384 CUDA Core |
| Tact | Basis: 2,01 GHz Boost: 2,41 GHz | Basis: 2,23 GHz Boost: 2,52 GHz |
| memory | Size:32 GB GDDR7 Interface:512-Bit Speed:28 Gbps Bandwidth: 1,792 GB/s | Size:24 GB GDDR6X Interface:384-Bit Speed:21Gbps Bandwidth: 1.008 GB/s |
| TDP / power connection | 575 Watt 1x 16-Pin | 450 Watt 1x 16-Pin |
| Display connectors | 3x DisplayPort 2.1a 1x HDMI 2.1 | 3x DisplayPort 1.4a 1x HDMI 2.1 |
Nvidia nominally increases the number of CUDA cores and memory by 33 percent compared to the RTX 4090.
In the manufacturer's own benchmarks, the upgrade of the RTX 5090 is reflected in a performance increase of up to 200 percent compared to the RTX 4090. However, these values are particularly achieved with the help of theaccomplished.

According to the official website, the games in which the RTX 5090 should absolutely shine are particularly characterized by path tracing options.
Nvidia names, among others, Cyberpunk 2077, Alan Wake 2 and Black Myth: Wukong as titles for which the RTX 5090 should deliver twice the promised performance.
Benchmarks from Nvidia for Far Cry 6 and A Plague Tale: Requiem, on the other hand, show a significantly smaller performance advantage, which at around 30 percent roughly corresponds to the increase in shader units.
Release and independent benchmarks
The RTX 5090 will be released together with the RTX 5080 on Thursday, January 30, 2025. The RTX 5070 Ti and the RTX 5070 will follow in February, a specific date is not yet known.
In the past, Nvidia's embargo on independent testing often fell on a Tuesday at 3 p.m. It is therefore conceivable that the time will come on January 28th or on January 21st, which was the date in the run-up to the official presentation.
