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 models arriving later in February.
Be warned: launch-day stock is expected to vanish quickly. Retailers have already cautioned about limited inventory, and past Nvidia launches have been plagued by bots snapping up cards for resale at inflated prices. If you're ready to buy and lucky enough to find one in stock, don't hesitate!
Pre-built PCs featuring the RTX 5090 might offer a more readily available (though pricier) alternative.

While only the RTX 5090 and 5080 launch in January, Nvidia has announced pricing for all four models:
The retailers listed above offer the RTX 5090 and 5080, but stock is unpredictable. To maximize your chances, check each retailer and purchase the first card you can successfully add to your cart. Competition will be fierce!

The RTX 50-series GPUs, announced at CES 2025, emphasize AI features. While offering a performance boost, the generational leap is smaller than in previous generations. DLSS 4 provides significant performance gains in supported games.
Our reviews highlight the RTX 5090's performance crown, albeit a modest one compared to its predecessor. The RTX 5080 offers a solid upgrade for users with older hardware, particularly those who utilize DLSS 4.
