The RTX 5090 is the best graphics card I've ever owned — but there's a catch for living room PC gamers

Doom running on a PC with a Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090.

Just as Terminator 2: Judgment Day predicted back in ye olden days of 1991, the future belongs to AI. That could be a problem for Nvidia RTX 50-series GPUs, even when it comes to the best consumer graphics card money can buy.

I was ‘fortunate’ enough to pick up an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 a couple of months ago. I use those semi-joking apostrophes because I merely had to pay $650 over MSRP for the new overlord of GPUs. Lucky me.
