Should you buy it?
Buy the RTX 5090 if you demand the absolute best performance for 4K/8K gaming or professional rendering and have no budget constraints. Consider alternatives like the RTX 5080 or previous generation if your budget is tighter or you primarily game at 1440p, as the performance uplift may not justify the significant price premium for those use cases.
