I absolutely love this graphics card. It’s a beast and I haven’t found a game it can’t run. Runs editing software super well too. I would definitely recommend the msi gaming trio over the other ones however they are all very similar.

I jumped from a 2070 super to this and I am so happy with the performance. The drivers are fixed now and playing Cyberpunk, helldivers, minecraft has been awesome. Any 5090 is the best card

What I Love:
1. Insane FPS in Every Game:
The first time I fired up Cyberpunk 2077 with everything maxed out (ray tracing on ultra, DLSS 4.0), I was getting over 140 FPS in 4K. No stutters, no drops, just buttery smooth gameplay. Fortnite, Warzone, Valorant—all running like they’re on steroids. Competitive shooters feel like I’m seeing into the future with how quick the response is. I can see and hit targets faster than ever before.
2. DLSS 4.0 + Ray Tracing:
DLSS 4.0 is like magic. It boosts performance without killing the quality. I can play in 4K and it looks better than native resolution, somehow. Ray tracing used to be something I turned off to keep my frames up, but now I leave it on full blast and my system doesn’t even flinch. Minecraft RTX looks so good it’s like a different game.
3. Future-Proofing:
This card doesn’t just crush today’s games—it’s built for what’s next. I tested out some Unreal Engine 5 demos and AI tools, and they all run smooth. I even started learning Blender and doing AI video upscaling, and the 5090 chews through everything. I don’t think I’ll need to upgrade for years, and that’s awesome.
4. Streaming and Recording at the Same Time:
With the dual NVENC encoders, I can stream at max quality while recording a separate file in 4K without lag. OBS runs flawlessly, and my stream doesn’t miss a frame. My viewers noticed the difference right away. Plus, the AV1 encoding makes everything look cleaner at lower bitrates, which helps my stream look pro even if the internet isn’t perfect.
5. Cooling and Noise:
I was worried about heat and fan noise, especially since I game for hours, but this thing runs surprisingly cool. Even under full load, it stays in the 60s (Celsius) with almost no noise. My case has good airflow, but the cooler on the 5090 is doing serious work. I’ve even left it mining overnight (just messing around), and it stayed chill the whole time.
⸻
What I Don’t Like:
1. The Size is RIDICULOUS:
It’s a monster. I had to get a new case (Lian Li O11D EVO) just to fit it, and even then, I had to rearrange everything inside. If you’re not rocking a full tower or a high-end mid tower, forget about fitting this card. It’s also super heavy, so you need a GPU support bracket, or it’ll sag hard.
2. Price Tag is Brutal:
Let’s be real—this card costs more than most entire gaming PCs. I was lucky that I saved for a long time and my parents matched some of it for my birthday (thanks, Mom & Dad). But for most people, this is way out of reach. It’s hard to recommend unless you’re really pushing the limits like I am, or you’re a serious content creator.
3. Power Hungry:
You need a 1000W PSU minimum, and three 8-pin connectors (or one 12VHPWR cable). That meant another upgrade just to use the card. It also puts out a ton of heat if you don’t have good airflow. Not a dealbreaker, but definitely something to plan for.
4. Overkill for Casual Gaming:
If you’re mostly playing games like Roblox, League, or CS2, this card is massive overkill. It’s like bringing a rocket launcher to a Nerf war. Amazing, but kind of wasted unless you’re really using it for 4K gaming, AI, or 3D rendering.
⸻
How I Use It:
I use the RTX 5090 for everything:
• Competitive FPS (Valorant, Fortnite, Apex) – High refresh 1440p and 4K, no dips, super consistent.
• Streaming on Twitch (OBS with AV1) – Stream + record at the same time, zero impact on gameplay.
• Content creation – I edit clips in DaVinci Resolve and do some 3D work in Blender. Renders are so fast now.
• AI/ML experiments – I’ve been trying Stable Diffusion, LLMs, and even voice cloning. The 5090 handles it all with ease.
• VR – I play Half-Life: Alyx and Beat Saber on my Quest 3 via PC Link, and everything is ultra smooth.
⸻
Final Thoughts:
The RTX 5090 is like having a Bugatti for your PC. It’s crazy powerful, ridiculously fast, and opens up a whole new level of gaming, streaming, and content creation. But it’s also expensive, massive, and a bit over the top for casual users.
If you’re a hardcore gamer, competitive esports player, or content creator who wants the best of the best, and you’ve got the setup to support it, this card is a dream. I’m 14, and this card makes me feel like I’m already competing on a pro level.
Would I buy it again? 100%. It’s the most exciting upgrade I’ve ever made—and I’m just getting started.

I recently picked up the NVIDIA RTX 5090 from Best Buy, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the entire experience—from purchase to performance.
Shopping Experience:
Best Buy made the process seamless. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely excited about the product. They answered all my questions and made sure I got exactly what I needed. The checkout was quick, and the packaging was secure and pristine.
Product Performance:
The RTX 5090 is an absolute beast. It chews through 4K gaming like it’s nothing, and ray tracing performance is next-level. I’ve never seen visuals this crisp and fluid. Whether I’m gaming, rendering, or experimenting with AI tools, this card handles everything effortlessly. Temps stay cool, and the noise levels are impressively low for such a powerhouse.
Why Best Buy?
I could’ve gone elsewhere, but Best Buy’s reliability, return policy, and customer service sealed the deal. Plus, their Geek Squad support gives me peace of mind if I ever need help down the line.
If you’re on the fence about upgrading or wondering where to buy your next GPU—don’t hesitate. Best Buy and the RTX 5090 are a dream combo.

Doesn't get any better then this currently. This runs my LG c2 perfectly with pretty much everything at 4k ultra settings 120hz. No complaints about the card itself and I love the looks of it. Just be careful as it is 359mm long, It is huge and won't fit in a lot of the smaller cases. Thermals are great on the card also. Got it on sale for about 2300ish

This thing is massive, so that could be a problem for small cases. It is quiet however, and thermally good. It comes with a gpu support that I had to google how to use, but seems to work. It is generally very pricey though for what it is. I used a coupon and gift certificate to offset, but wouldn't have bought this version otherwise.
I have not had any issues with the 4-way power splitter while using a Seasonic Prime 1000 and 4 individual original cables.

Let's be honest, this is a graphics card for enthusiasts. It is wildly overpriced, wildly powerful, overbuilt cooling for overclocking, and absolutely huge. Make sure your case has room for it.
That said, as far as performance, it delivers on all fronts.

Pretty amazing performance, it takes a lot of power. It runs cool on the chip but it dumps heat into a room. I run mine pretty frequently and hard when I game, and the room warms up fast and smells like hot electronics. No melting but I have a PSU that has the new 12x6 connector instead of the first gen 12vhpwr one.
