Nvidia has revealed that its new flagship gaming GPU, the RTX 5090, is only 30% faster than the RTX 4090 in ray-traced game performance if you don't engage its multi-frame generation DLSS 4 tech.

However, those hoping a 33% CUDA core count increase and corresponding price increase would result in an even larger performance improvement might be a bit disappointed.
