Nvidia 5090 Release 3D Rendering Benchmarks

The first official 3D rendering benchmarks have been revealed thanks to Puget Systems. These cover a range of content creator tests including the Adobe Suite and DaVinci Resolve, however our focus is on the 3D rendering results which span Unreal Engine, V-Ray and Blender.

As can be seen in the bar charts Puget have produced, the RTX 5090 Founders Edition provides a significant uplift in offline rendering performance:

V-Ray = 38% higher than 4090

Blender = 35% higher than 4090

However, perhaps somewhat disappointingly, Unreal Engine benchmarks demonstrate the following results:

Unreal Engine = 17% more FPS than 4090

Despite this, as Puget note, the 5090 packs 32GB of VRAM which can be essential for large Unreal Engine scenes, especially as all consumer cards prior to this release have 24GB of VRAM. Thus making the 5090 a clear choice for artists/studios that use Unreal Engine and cannot fork out for high cost-performance professional cards such as the Ada 6000 (48GB VRAM).
