Nvidia to Hold CES 2025 Keynote Amid RTX 5090 Rumors

Nvidia is gearing up for a major presence at CES 2025, with CEO Jensen Huang set to deliver a keynote on January 6th at 6:30 PM PT, just a day before the official opening of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The announcement comes amidst swirling rumors about the upcoming RTX 5090 GPU, which is expected to be part of Nvidia’s next-generation RTX 50-series graphics cards.

What to Expect from Nvidia’s Keynote

Huang is no stranger to making big announcements at CES, and expectations are high for this year’s event. Nvidia’s recent surge in valuation to nearly $3 trillion has been largely fueled by its AI hardware and software solutions, which will undoubtedly feature prominently in his keynote. The focus will likely be on Nvidia’s cutting-edge AI developments, including hardware innovations designed to push forward machine learning, autonomous systems, and AI-driven applications.

However, for gaming enthusiasts and the tech community, the biggest excitement revolves around the potential unveiling of Nvidia’s Blackwell architecture-based desktop GPUs, specifically the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080.

RTX 50-Series: What We Know So Far

According to a source familiar with Nvidia's plans, CES 2025 could see the first official reveal of the RTX 50-series GPUs. While details are still under wraps, rumors suggest that the RTX 5090 will be a powerhouse, boasting 32GB of VRAM and featuring GDDR7 memory. However, this increase in performance is expected to come at the cost of heavier power requirements, making it a card aimed at high-end gamers and professionals with robust systems.

Nvidia’s Timeline for the Next-Gen GPUs

It’s been over two years since Nvidia introduced its RTX 40-series GPUs, which debuted with the RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 in September 2022. At CES 2024, Nvidia expanded the 40-series lineup with the launch of the RTX 4070 Super, RTX 4070 Ti Super, and RTX 4080 Super, strengthening its mid-range and high-performance offerings.

If the rumors hold true, both the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 could be announced simultaneously, marking the next major leap in Nvidia’s GPU technology. Given Nvidia’s past trends, the company will likely emphasize the groundbreaking performance of the new cards, especially in areas such as ray tracing, AI-driven rendering technologies, and enhanced support for next-gen gaming experiences.

A Glimpse Into the Future

While AI is expected to dominate the narrative of Huang’s keynote, the potential reveal of the RTX 50-series will be a massive draw for enthusiasts. The Blackwell architecture promises to build on the success of the Ada Lovelace architecture used in the RTX 40-series, with even greater power for AI, gaming, and creative applications.

Huang’s keynote at CES 2025 is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated tech events of the year. Whether it’s AI innovations or the debut of the next-gen GPUs, Nvidia is set to once again push the boundaries of what’s possible in the world of technology.
