-
GeForce RTX 5090
The flagship of the RTX 50 series, which debuted in January 2025 on Nvidia's Blackwell architecture. Wikipedia notes the series' 12V-2x6 connector design drew criticism and that availability and pricing were rocky.
-
GeForce RTX 5080
A high-end Blackwell card announced at CES 2025 at $999, the same as the RTX 4080 Super a year earlier, which surprised many. It is one of the first three RTX 50 cards released in January 2025.
-
GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
A high-end RTX 50 series card on the Blackwell architecture, which Wikipedia notes had availability issues at launch and, like the 5090 and 5080, was affected by some dies missing eight ROPs.
-
GeForce RTX 5070
Announced at $549. Nvidia's CEO claimed it could reach RTX 4090 performance, a claim derided because it relied on DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation rather than raw performance.
-
GeForce RTX 4090
The flagship that launched the RTX 40 series on October 12, 2022, built on Nvidia's Ada Lovelace architecture with third-generation RT cores and fourth-generation Tensor Cores.
-
GeForce RTX 4080
A high-end Ada Lovelace card from the RTX 40 series, which was announced on September 20, 2022. A refreshed RTX 4080 Super later followed in the same generation.
-
GeForce RTX 4070
An upper-midrange card from the RTX 40 series on the Ada Lovelace architecture, with third-generation RT cores and fourth-generation Tensor Cores for ray tracing and AI features.
-
GeForce RTX 4060
An entry-level to midrange RTX 40 series card built on Ada Lovelace, bringing the architecture's ray tracing and DLSS features to a lower price tier.
-
GeForce RTX 3090
The enthusiast card of the RTX 30 series, built on the Ampere architecture with second-generation RT cores and third-generation Tensor Cores. The series was designed to compete with AMD's Radeon RX 6000.
-
GeForce RTX 3080
A high-end Ampere card from the RTX 30 series, designed to compete with AMD's Radeon RX 6000 series, using second-generation RT cores and third-generation Tensor Cores.
-
GeForce RTX 3070
An upper-midrange Ampere card from the RTX 30 series, which sits below the RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 3080 and competes with AMD's Radeon RX 6000 series.
-
GeForce RTX 3060
The mid-range card of the RTX 30 series, above the entry-level RTX 3050, bringing second-generation ray tracing cores to a more affordable tier of the Ampere family.
-
GeForce RTX 2080 Ti
The top consumer card of the RTX 20 series, which started shipping on September 20, 2018, and introduced the Turing architecture and the first hardware real-time ray tracing in a consumer product.
-
GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
The enthusiast card of the GeForce 10 series, based on the Pascal microarchitecture, a generation released in May 2016 that succeeded the GeForce 900 series.
-
GeForce GTX 1660 Super
A card from the GTX 16 series, announced in February 2019, which brought the Turing architecture to the entry-level and midrange market without RTX ray tracing hardware.
-
GeForce GTX 1060
A mainstream Pascal card from the GeForce 10 series, from the generation released in May 2016, which succeeded the GeForce 900 series and was based on the Pascal microarchitecture.
-
Radeon RX 9070 XT
A card from AMD's Radeon RX 9000 series on the RDNA 4 architecture, which targets the mainstream segment and succeeds the Radeon RX 7000 series.
-
Radeon RX 7900 XTX
The flagship of the Radeon RX 7000 series on RDNA 3, released on December 13, 2022, alongside the RX 7900 XT, as AMD's enthusiast card.
-
Radeon RX 7800 XT
A mainstream card from the Radeon RX 7000 series on RDNA 3, sitting with the RX 7700 XT under the high-end RX 7900 cards.
-
Radeon RX 6800 XT
A high-end card from the Radeon RX 6000 series on RDNA 2, announced on October 28, 2020, as the successor to the RX 5000 series and sitting below the enthusiast RX 6900 XT.
-
Intel Arc B580
A card from Intel's Arc line of discrete GPUs, made by TSMC, which competes with Nvidia's GeForce and AMD's Radeon. The first generation, the Arc A-series, launched in 2022.
GPUs tier list questions
Why does the GPU list not mention prices or benchmark scores?
Prices and performance positions change with every launch, price cut and driver update, so they would go stale quickly. The write-ups describe architecture, generation and role, and you can check current prices and reviews separately.
Why are older cards like the GTX 1080 Ti on the list?
Many people still own older cards, so the list mixes generations so you can rank both current cards and long-lived favorites.
How should I rank GPUs?
Common criteria include performance, value, efficiency, features such as ray tracing and upscaling, and longevity. Many people rank by generation, or by the price tier they care about.
