**Las Vegas, NV – January 2024** – NVIDIA today unveiled its GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs at CES, promising a significant leap forward in generative and agentic AI content creation. These new desktop and laptop GPUs, built on the Blackwell architecture, boast up to 2x faster generative AI model performance and a smaller memory footprint compared to the previous generation.
Key features of the RTX 50 Series include:
* **Blazing-fast AI performance:** Utilizing FP4 support, a lower quantization method, the GPUs deliver over 2x performance compared to the RTX 40 series, significantly reducing the memory needed to run complex AI models. This allows creators to run models locally that previously required high-end professional cards.
* **Enhanced video capabilities:** Ninth-generation NVIDIA encoders and decoders support 4:2:2 pro-grade color, MV-HEVC for 3D/VR video, and AV1 Ultra High Quality mode. The GeForce RTX 5090 boasts three encoders and two decoders, enabling video export up to 60% faster than the RTX 4090.
* **Advanced 3D features:** Up to 32GB of VRAM (RTX 5090) and DLSS 4 with Multi-Frame Generation enable seamless navigation and rendering of complex 3D scenes at high frame rates. Support for popular 3D applications like D5 Render and Chaos Vantage will be added in February.
* **AI-powered livestreaming:** Collaboration with Streamlabs is bringing the Streamlabs Intelligent Streaming Assistant, an AI agent that can act as a sidekick, producer, and technical support during live streams.
* **Improved NVIDIA Broadcast:** Two new AI-powered effects – Studio Voice and Virtual Key Light – are added, alongside a revamped user interface and performance enhancements.
* **RTX Remix advancements:** The modding platform gains DLSS 4 support and will soon support Neural Radiance Cache and RTX Skin for enhanced realism.
The RTX 50 Series is designed for professionals and creators working with AI tools like Stability AI’s new SPAR3D 3D model, which generates meshes from images in seconds, and NVIDIA’s own 3D-guided generative AI blueprint available in February. NVIDIA is also partnering with major video editing software companies like Adobe and Blackmagic Design to integrate these technologies.
The GeForce RTX 5090 and 5080 will be available January 30th, followed by the 5070 Ti and 5070 in February, and RTX 50 Series laptops in March. The RTX 50 Series promises to be a game-changer for content creators demanding top-tier performance in AI-powered workflows.
