If you're eagerly awaiting the chance to preorder the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 and 5090 graphics cards starting January 30, there's an exciting opportunity available right now. Adorama has already made available several pre-built gaming desktop PCs equipped with RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs, and you can secure your pre-order today. This is a golden window for those looking for a complete system, as these GPUs are anticipated to be in high demand. Keep in mind, Adorama has set a tentative ship date of February 11, but it's wise to approach this timeline with a bit of skepticism.
Nvidia unveiled the 50 series GPUs at CES 2025, highlighting their focus on enhanced AI features rather than just raw raster performance. The new DLSS 4 technology promises to quadruple frame rates with minimal visual compromise. While these GPUs do offer a performance boost, opinions vary on their value for PC gamers compared to the previous RTX 40 series cards.

The RTX 5090 is set to be Nvidia's latest and most powerful flagship card, taking over from the RTX 4090. These pre-built systems are priced higher than their RTX 4090 counterparts, which typically range from $3,500 to $4,000. The elevated price is justified when you consider that the standalone RTX 5090 is expected to cost $400 more than the RTX 4090.
In our review of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 FE, Jacqueline Thomas noted, "The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 has officially taken the performance crown from the RTX 4090, but with less force than previous generations. When it comes to traditional non-AI gaming performance, the RTX 5090 provides one of the smallest generational uplifts in recent memory. However, in games that support it, DLSS 4 really does deliver huge performance gains – you just have to make your peace with the fact that 75% of the frames are generated with AI."

The RTX 5080 is poised to be Nvidia's second most powerful GPU in the lineup. Although our review is not complete, based on Nvidia's pricing and specs, we anticipate its performance to fall between the RTX 4080/4080 Super and the RTX 4090. With 10,752 CUDA cores, which is roughly 10% more than the RTX 4080, and new GDDR7 memory, the RTX 5080 starts at around $2,300. This is quite competitive, especially since a gaming PC with an RTX 4080 Super typically costs the same or more.
