At CES 2025, NVIDIA revealed its new RTX 50 series GPUs. The green team has shared an impressive real-time video, and revealed its prices and availability. So, let’s take a look at them, shall we?
The high-end model will be the NVIDIA RTX 5090. This GPU will have a $1999 MSRP. Then we have the RTX 5080 which will be priced at $999. Finally, we have the RTX 5070Ti and the RTX 5070 which will have a $749 and $549 MSRP, respectively.
NVIDIA stated that the RTX 5070 will be as powerful as the RTX 4090. Now this is something I want to see with my own eyes.
NVIDIA claims that availability will start this month. However, it did not reveal any specific dates. Rumor has it that the RTX 5080 will come out on January 21st. The RTX 5090 and the RTX 5080 GPUs will become available on January 30th. Then, the RTX 5070Ti and the RTX 5070 will come out in February 2025.
Once the keynote ends, NVIDIA will most likely send us a press release. This press release may have more details about its new Blackwell GPUs. So, I’ll be sure to update the story with any new info I get.
Regarding the video that NVIDIA showcased, this looked really similar to Assassin’s Creed Shadows. So, does this mean that AC: Shadows will have Full Ray Tracing/Path Tracing? Looks like it. After all, Ubisoft always had a good relationship with NVIDIA. And, if that was AC: Shadows, the game might be one of the first to support DLSS 4.
For now, here is an early gaming benchmark graph that has leaked. In this graph, we get to see the RTX 5090 against the RTX 4090. And, in Path Tracing, NVIDIA claims that the RTX 5080 will be twice as fast as the RTX 4090. This is mainly due to DLSS 4, for which we’ll talk about in a separate article.
For what it’s worth, this GPU announcement is better than the one from AMD. Because, hey. NVIDIA did reveal the prices, and it showcased DLSS 4 in action. We’ll most likely get more details about them shortly but things are looking pretty interesting.
Stay tuned for more!
