The performance benchmarks for NVIDIA‘s upcoming GPUs, the RTX 5090 and RTX 5090D, have been leaked during Blender tests. These tests provide a glimpse into the capabilities of the new graphics cards, which are generating significant anticipation ahead of their official reviews, rumored to be released on January 24.
Performance Details
In Blender (thanks VideoCardz), a benchmark focusing on 3D rendering, the RTX 5090 achieved an impressive score of 17,822.17, while the RTX 5090D scored 14,706.65. Compared to the previous generation, the RTX 5090D demonstrated a 27.6% performance increase over the RTX 4090, while the RTX 5090 outpaced its predecessor by 34%. These results underscore the advancements in rendering power and efficiency in the RTX 50 series.
However, it’s worth noting that the comparison was made using different versions of Blender for the RTX 4090 and RTX 5090, which may limit the accuracy of a direct comparison between the two generations.
The performance improvements suggest that these high-end GPUs are well-suited for professional 3D rendering and related workloads. Blender is a critical benchmark in this context, given its heavy reliance on rendering power, making it an ideal test for top-tier GPUs like the RTX 5090 and RTX 5090D.
Official Results Expected Soon
The official embargo date for reviews of the RTX 5090 and RTX 5090D is expected to lift on January 24, with some sources mentioning January 23. The reviews will provide more detailed insights, including third-party performance tests, which are essential for assessing the value and capabilities of the new generation of NVIDIA GPUs.
