Nvidia is preparing its next generation of graphics cards, the GeForce RTX 5000. The brand could break new records in this sector, such as GPU frequency. It is not a risky path for the brand.
Nvidia is on the rise thanks to the success of artificial intelligence, and has been releasing high-performance graphics cards for video gamers for several years, so the GeForce RTX 5000 generation is highly anticipated and shrouded in mystery at this point.
New rumor from the specialized forum ChevelleAs leaks about some upcoming processors often come, they claim to reveal information about the future GeForce RTX 5090, the high-end graphics card of this new generation.
Standard GPU Frequency
According to the user, which took WCCFtechThe GeForce RTX 5090 could have a clock speed close to 3GHz. It would be the first GPU to offer such a high clock speed. The GeForce RTX 4090 offers a clock speed of 2.2GHz.
Operating frequency is an important characteristic in determining the computing power of a processor. Generally, the power of a processor is determined by its architecture, the number of cores, and then the clock frequency of those cores. Historically, pushing a chip's operating frequency has been the result of failing to improve the other two criteria.
Increasing the frequency generally leads to a rather sudden increase in heat generation and consumption. Therefore, this is a trap that manufacturers generally try to avoid. This is a lesson that Intel learned since the early 2000s with the launch of the Pentium 4, one of the first processors to reach 3 GHz, while the brand dreamed of pushing its processor to the 10 GHz mark.
It's too early to judge Nvidia's strategy for the next generation of graphics cards. There are a lot of unknowns surrounding the GeForce RTX 5090, especially since this is just a rumor. We will have to wait a few months before we get any new information. The GeForce RTX 5000 is expected to be based on the new Blackwell architecture, and should provide a significant power gap with the current generation.
