Takeaways

• 😀 The RTX 5090 is significantly faster than the RTX 4090, with a performance boost ranging from 30% to 40% depending on the game and resolution.
• 😀 In *Battlefield 5* (2018), the RTX 5090 achieved 29.3% higher FPS than the 4090 at native 4K.
• 😀 At 1440p, *Battlefield 2042* showed a 33% increase in performance for the RTX 5090 compared to the 4090.
• 😀 *3DMark Time Spy Extreme* showed a 40% increase in graphics performance with the RTX 5090 over the 4090.
• 😀 *Wukong* (Unreal Engine 5) is a demanding game for rasterization, and at native 4K, the RTX 5090 delivered 40% better FPS than the RTX 4090.
• 😀 In *Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War*, the RTX 5090 showed a significant performance boost, but the 4090 still held an advantage at 1440p low settings.
• 😀 *Cyberpunk 2077* with ray tracing on pushed both GPUs to their limits, with the RTX 5090 showing a 43% higher FPS than the 4090 at native 4K.
• 😀 The RTX 5090 offers strong performance at 8K in older games like *Anthem*, achieving around 60-70 FPS on max settings.
• 😀 For competitive games like *Counter-Strike 2*, the RTX 5090 handles ultra settings at 1440p with impressive FPS but struggles at 4K with some drops.
• 😀 New AI technologies like DLSS frame generation, Ray reconstruction, and Super Resolution boost performance and image quality, particularly in demanding games like *Cyberpunk* and *Hogwarts Legacy*.
• 😀 DLSS improvements include better frame generation for smoother gameplay, and new versions will benefit older Nvidia GPU series (20/30 series).
• 😀 Reflex 2, a feature aimed at reducing latency in competitive games, was not directly tested but has the potential to lower input lag significantly.
