Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Sees 20% Performance Increase Over Last Gen, It’s Claimed

At the end of this month, the new Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card is scheduled for release, and there’s been some buzz about its potential improvements compared to the previous generation.

As a dedicated enthusiast, I’ve learned from VideoCardz.com’s exclusive insights that the upcoming Nvidia RTX 5090 is expected to deliver approximately a 20% performance boost compared to its predecessor, the RTX 4090. However, it’s important to note that this improvement can significantly fluctuate depending on the specific game you’re playing, your chosen resolution, and your personal settings.

Besides conversations involving cardholders, simulated assessments for the $2000 card have surfaced in public domains. The RTX 5090 exhibits a 36% enhancement in the FireStrike benchmark, a 33% boost in TimeSpy, and other performance tests show a 46% improvement. Further details about additional benchmarks and performance tests will be disclosed once non-disclosure agreements for the initial reviews expire on January 23.
