Nvidia warns of 'significant demand' for the graphics cards, which go on sale early Thursday morning. Still, Nvidia says it'll be shipping more supplies to retailers every day.

Your shiny new Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card shouldn't melt due to a bad power cable connection, unlike some RTX 4090 cards.

The release date of the GeForce RTX 5070 remains unknown. Nvidia only roughly mentioned February for both 70-series graphics cards, without a specific date. The two top models GeForce RTX 5090 and GeForce RTX 5080 can be sold by retailers from January 30th. However, availability is expected to be poor at the beginning.

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.

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 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.
