NVIDIA RTX 50 series. Is it better than 4090?

The NVIDIA RTX 50 series also knowns as “Blackwell” is expected to comes the with major updates than RTX 40 series. In this model, it comes with modifications in performance, memory technology and architecture.

Key Points:

1. Performance Boost:

The top model of this series RTX 5090 is to be up to 2.5 times faster than previously series of RTX 4090 in some applications primarily due to architectural enhancement and increased CUDA cores.

2. New Architecture:

Its new architecture is Blackwell architecture. The Blackwell GPUs uses TSMC’s 3nm or 4nm processes that enables improvement in power efficiency and high transistors density. It include dual-chip designs for flagship models like RTX 5090 that allows unparalleled performance.

3. Ray Tracing:

It increased ray tracing capabilities that are expected in building of NVIDIA’s advancement. This involves in greater output for ray tracing effect and optimizations like Shader Execution Reordering.

4. Memory Advancement:

• GDDR7 Memory: This series introduce new GDDR7 memory that offers increase speed up to 36Gbps that increased than previous GDDR6X. It translate to memory bandwidth up to 71% for higher model.
• Memory Configuration: It is expected more VRAM storage. The RTX 5090 comes with 48GB and a 512 bit memory bus.

5. AI and Software Features:

• DLSS 4.0: NVIDIA is comes to introduce a new version of its power DLSS technology with the improved ray reconstruction and images scaling power.
• AI integration: The Blackwell may include new AI enhancement for gaming and professional applications.

6. Power and Efficiency:

• High Power Draw: RTX 5090 which is the higher performance model of this series may consume power between 400W and 600W. However, its efficiency gain with the help of new architecture that could draw some of its power.
• Improved Connectors: It is upgraded to 16-pin power connectors that aims to handles increased power tasks.

Drawbacks:

The RTX 50 series allow professional markets that offers high VRAM but also lags in more consistent use with high power demanding applications like do gaming on high graphic of more usage and in hours of video editing. NVIDIA gives this technology that offer great performance but also comes with high pricing tag of $2.000+ price.

Conclusion:

The developments made in RTX 50 series is absolutely grater than RTX 40 series. It can run games of high graphics at highest refresh rates easily but larger use may lag. However, they gave high performance but also gives the growing costs and power requirement of high performance GPUs, They also consume more electricity than RTX 4090.
