The most powerful of Nvidia's newest Blackwell graphics cards is a " beast ." Review after review has brought up benchmarks showcasing that when it comes to gaming, the RTX 5090 blows its predecessors and other graphics cards away. However, it appears that for many consumers, the RTX 5090 is overkill.

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.

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 is the most brutally fast graphics card ever introduced, augmented by new DLSS 4 technology that feels like magic. But you pay dearly for it.

Scalpers are already listing NVIDIA's new GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card on eBay for between $5000 and $7000, with NO refunds offered.

Nvidia's newest top-spec GPU, the RTX 5090, gets a thorough benchmarking - including its DLSS 4 features, like Multi Frame Generation.
