NVIDIA showcases power of new Blackwell GeForce RTX 50 series graphics
Fresh from announcing their Blackwell GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs at CES 2025 earlier this year as well as their recent deployment of their GeForce RTX 5060 family of GPUs – the RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060, NVIDIA showcased a demonstration of GeForce RTX 50 series GPUS intended for gaming laptops in Malaysia.
In a private briefing, NVIDIA showcased six gaming laptops from Asus, Lenovo, MSI, Razer and Acer, each featuring the new GeForce RTX 50 series laptop GPUs based on the Blackwell architecture.
These gaming laptops featured examples using the RTX 5070, 5070 TI, 5080 and the top of the line NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 laptop GPU. According to NVIDIA, gaming laptops featuring the RTX 5060 and RTX 5070 will be arriving in the near future.
What are the NVIDIA Blackwell GeForce RTX 50 series graphics
For the uninitiated, the latest NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards and laptop GPUs are built on the new NVIDIA Blackwell RTX architecture, allowing for up to 8X faster frame rates through NVIDIA 4 with Multi Frame Generation.
To date, over 100 games support DLSS 4 including Black Myth Wukong, Avowed and Cyberpunk 2077 just to name a few. With the new Multi Frame Gameration, which uses AI to generate three additional frames per traditionally rendered frame, the RTX 50 series GPUs are able to offer silky smooth graphics over traditional native rendering.
The new GeForce RTX 50 series cards also reduce latency by up to 75% with NVIDIA Reflex 2, offer superior graphics with RTX Neural Shaders that compress textures by up to 7X with the ability to offer cinematic-quality textures. Another powerful addition is the inclusion of RTX Neural Faces which improve face quality in games by using generative AI by using real-time generative AI to infer more natural looking mugs.
The laptop versions feature the same DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation capabilities that offer up to 8X better frame rates, similar latency reduction capabilities by up to 75% with NVIDIA Reflex 2. They also feature the same NVIDIA RTX Neural Shaders and are enhanced with Max-Q technologies to optimise battery life by up to 40% without compromising portability.
On paper, the desktop version of the GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card is the fastest GeForce RTX GPU to date with 92 billion transistors, the ability to offer over 3,352 trillion AI operations per second (TOPS) of computing power and thanks to the new Blackwell architecture and DLSS 4, it nearly doubles the performance of its predecessor the GeForce RTX 4090 GPU.
To handle the increase workload, the new NVIDIA Blackwell GeForce RTX 50 series come with GDDR7 RAM with speeds of up to 30 Gbps and the ability to offer up to 1.8TB/s of memory bandwidth along with support for PCIe Gen5 and DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20 for up to 8K 165Hz displays.
In the demonstration, NVIDIA ran the new gaming laptops with the new GeForce RTX 50 cards across various games and scenarios with Avowed, Black Myth Wukong and Cyberpunk 2077 running at full tilt with DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation.
Also demonstrated was NVIDIA Broadcast AI that was able to turn any room into a studio for content streamers to stream virtually anywhere with a connection, NVIDIA AI Workbench for game development along with examples of deployed local AI agents with AnythingLLM that makes deploying and running them effortlessly easy on NVIDIA RTX 50 series PCs and gaming laptops.
