And here's also why we're not getting the same sort of big frame rate bump we got out of the RTX 40-series: hardware is hard.

We now know more details about Nvidia's upcoming GeForce RTX 5090, RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5070 graphics cards. Here's some broader specs info on every new RTX 5000 GPU.
