Features and prices of the new Nvidia GPUs
The RTX 5070 will cost $549, a fact that excited the conference attendees, as it is a GPU that will offer similar performance to the RTX 4090, but for a lower price.
The company also showed off the RTX 5070 Ti, which will be twice as fast as the RTX 4070 Ti, thanks to its improvements in Artificial Intelligence rescaling technology (DLSS 4). Its price will be 749 dollars.
On the other hand, the RTX 5080 will have a total graphics power of 360 watts and is designed to be twice as fast as the RTX 4080, while its price will be $999.
Finally, the company’s most powerful GPU, the RTX 5090, will be twice as fast as the RTX 4090, thanks to the Blackwell architecture and DLSS 4 technology, which was tested with the game Cyberpunk 2077, which worked at 238 fps (frames per second) compared to the 4090, which ran at 106 fps.
The new generation of graphics cards, Huang said, are powered by AI technologies, such as RTX neural material rendering or DLSS 4, something he highlighted by saying that GeForce, referring to Nvidia hardware, had been used to enable AI, but “now AI is revolutionizing GeForce.”
The announcement of the RTX 50 series comes more than two years after the previous generation was unveiled, which was based on the Ada Lovelace architecture. This time they arrive under a different panorama for the company, since its financial context places it as one of the three most valuable in the world and, in fact, the latest generation Blackwell chips are in “full production,” Huang said in the conference.
This statement excited attendees, but especially those who have investments within the company. During the quarter alone – which ended in October – sales of data center chips represented about 88% of the company’s total.
On the other hand, Nvidia’s gaming business (which they started in the late 90s) had a growth of 15% compared to the previous year in the third quarter of the year, figures that show the company the no forget your different business verticals.
In addition to the benefits that this new generation of GPUs will deliver to the gamer market, they will also be powerful enough to run large language models and image generations from companies such as Meta, Mistral or Stability AI.
