The wait is over! Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards are available for preorder, starting at 6 AM PT on January 30th. Leading the charge are the top-tier RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 GPUs, with the mid-range RTX 5070 and 5070 Ti following in February.

Be warned: launch-day stock is expected to vanish quickly. Retailers have already cautioned about limited inventory, and past launches have been plagued by bots snatching up cards for resale at inflated prices. If you find one, don't hesitate! Pre-built PCs featuring the RTX 5090 might offer better availability, albeit at a premium.

IGN's RTX 5090 and 5080 Reviews

The RTX 50 series, announced at CES 2025, prioritizes AI features over raw rasterization performance. DLSS 4 promises significant frame rate boosts, although performance gains over the RTX 40 series are modest in non-AI games.

Our reviews highlight that while the RTX 5090 surpasses the RTX 4090 in performance, the improvement is less dramatic than in previous generations. DLSS 4 significantly enhances performance in supported titles.

Similarly, the RTX 5080 offers a noticeable upgrade for users with older hardware, but the performance gains over the RTX 4080 are not substantial without DLSS 4.
