Nvidia held a special press event where it shared the performance test results of the new RTX 50 series graphics cards for the first time. Notably, these tests were conducted without the use of DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), allowing the company to showcase the actual performance boost compared to previous models. WCCFTech provided the details on the event.
Tests Without DLSS: Performance Gains
The results showed that the new RTX 50 graphics cards offer a performance boost of 15–30% over the previous generation. This was particularly noticeable in ray tracing and tests conducted at native resolution. It's important to note that DLSS, which is typically used to boost performance, was not included in these tests, making these results even more impressive.
Performance Comparison (Ray Tracing, Without DLSS):
- RTX 5090 vs. RTX 4090: +30%
- RTX 5080 vs. RTX 4080: +15%
- RTX 5070 Ti vs. RTX 4070 Ti: +20%
- RTX 5070 vs. RTX 4070: +20%
These results show that even without DLSS, the new graphics cards deliver a significant performance increase, which will likely appeal to both gamers and professionals working with graphics.
When and at What Price Will the New Models Be Released?
Nvidia announced that the first models, the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, will go on sale starting January 30, 2025, at the following recommended prices:
- RTX 5090: $1999

Additionally, the RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 will be released in February 2025, priced at:
- RTX 5070 Ti: $749
- RTX 5070: $549
Nvidia also stated that the RTX 5070 would have similar performance to the RTX 4090, but later clarified that this referred to performance with DLSS enabled.
A Game-Changer for Gamers and Professionals
The RTX 50 series promises to be a game-changer, even without considering the potential of DLSS. With a 15–30% performance boost compared to the previous generation, these models are expected to be an excellent choice for both gamers and professionals working in the graphics field. The release of these new models in January and February could mark a significant shift in the graphics card market.
