The GeForce RTX 5090, NVIDIA’s next flagship GPU for gamers, will be more power hungry than the current flagship, the GeForce RTX 4090, according to further rumors shared today that claim the Blackwell flagship will consume up to 600 watts of power. Additionally, the GeForce RTX 5080, which is expected to consume up to 400 watts of power, is said to deliver 10% higher performance than the GeForce RTX 4090.

- “I know you someone got the details of GeForce of Blackwell recently.”
- “Both of them all have some increase in power consumption, with higher SKUs increasing more.”
- “[RawMango: I say 550W for 5090] more.”
- “[Raichu: So, 600w for 5090 and 400w for 5080 is right?] Yeah,”
That leads to these updated figures for the GeForce RTX 50 Series:
- GeForce RTX 5090 (600-watt TDP)
- GeForce RTX 5080 (400-watt TDP)
- GeForce RTX 5070 (220-watt TDP)
- GeForce RTX 5060 (170-watt TDP)
- GeForce RTX 5050 (100-watt TDP)

NVIDIA noting that the GeForce RTX 4090 features the same power consumption as its predecessor in 2022:
The RTX 4090 is the world’s fastest gaming GPU with astonishing power, acoustics and temperature characteristics. In full ray-traced games, the RTX 4090 with DLSS 3 is up to 4x faster compared to last generation’s RTX 3090 Ti with DLSS 2. It is also up to 2x faster in today’s games while maintaining the same 450W power consumption. It features 76 billion transistors, 16,384 CUDA cores and 24GB of high-speed Micron GDDR6X memory, and consistently delivers over 100 frames per second at 4K-resolution gaming. The RTX 4090 will be available on Wednesday, Oct. 12, starting at $1,599.
