Rumor: the price of the NVIDIA RTX 5090 will not be for all budgets

A few months ago, a rumor began to circulate that the price of the NVIDIA RTX 5090 would be much higher than the RTX 4090 that is currently on the market and the one that comes to replace it. As the weeks went by, other sources suggested that the price difference between both models would not be so great.

Unfortunately, news regarding the RTX 5090 price has resurfaced again, and just like a few weeks ago, the news is not very good.

Price of the NVIDIA RTX 5090

The latest leak related to the price of the RTX 5090, the most powerful graphics card in the NVIDIA 50 series, suggests that it will have a price of $2,600, So with the euro conversion, we can safely talk about 3,000 euros at the exchange rate.

If we take into account that the RTX 4090 hit the market for $1,599, the $2,600 for the RTX 5090 represents a increase of 1,000 dollars compared to the previous generation. If we follow the rumors and if the specifications published so far are true, the performance of the RTX 5090 will be almost double that of the RTX 4090.

In the image that the user @Huang514613 has published in X, we can see how they talk about the RTX 5090 not of the RTX 5090Dso it is the version that will be sold worldwide and not the exclusive version for China with lower features.

It is an important sign that, starting January 20, new duty to products made in China that arrive in the United States, with AMD, Intel and NVIDIA being the main affected, so this may be one of the reasons for their high price compared to the previous generation, tariffs that should not affect Europe .

Possible specifications of the NVIDIA RTX 5090

The RTX 5090 is based on the GB202 GPUwill have 21,760 CUDA coreswhich is 5,376 more cores compared to the RTX 4090. Furthermore, it releases the blackwell architectureleaving aside the Lovelace architecture used in the previous generation.

As for video memory, we are talking about 32 GB GDDR7this means 8 GB more memory than the previous generation and the most modern standard, since the 4090 uses memory GDDR6X. This represents a significant performance improvement, especially in tasks of Artificial intelligence.

In this way, functions that depend on an AI, such as DLSSthey will offer greater performance and better image quality, since with the RTX 50 it also comes DLS 4.0. To this we have to add the improved performance with Ray Tracing which, based on specifications, can be up to 3 times higher.

Consumption will be another of the novelties that this new generation will incorporate, consumption established in 600W without counting the possible versions with overclock that assemblers can launch on the market, this represents 150W more than the previous generation. This will force some users to replace the power supply with a higher power one.
