NVIDIA launches consumer-grade GPUs based on the Blackwell architecture, opening up a new world of AI computing graphics

On January 7th, Jinshi Data reported that NVIDIA (NVDA.O) today released the most advanced consumer GPU for gamers, creators, and developers - the GeForce RTX™ 50 series desktop and laptop GPUs. With support for NVIDIA’s Blackwell architecture, fifth-generation Tensor Cores, and fourth-generation RT Cores, the GeForce RTX 50 series has made breakthroughs in AI-driven rendering, including neural shaders, digital human technology, geometry, and lighting. The GeForce RTX 5090 GPU is the fastest GeForce RTX GPU to date, with 920 billion transistors, providing over 33.52 trillion artificial intelligence operations per second (TOPS). The innovation of the Blackwell architecture and DLSS 4 means that the performance of the GeForce RTX 5090 GPU is twice that of the GeForce RTX 4090 GPU.
