Nvidia Reveals Next-Gen Laptop Graphics at CES 2025
At CES 2025, Nvidia has just revealed the GPUs behind the next generation of gaming laptops. The RTX 5000 mobile series is here, led, of course, by the GeForce RTX 5090.
Unlike its desktop lineup, Nvidia has revealed a full stack of mobile graphics cards, bookended by the RTX 5060 on the low-end and the RTX 5090 on the high-end. However, keep in mind that these mobile GPUs will be much less powerful than their desktop counterparts.
These new mobile GPUs are powering a wide swath of next-generation gaming laptops, also revealed at CES, from the likes of HP, MSI, Alienware, and Asus. Nvidia is claiming that these new gaming laptops are significantly faster than laptops sporting last-generation parts, which is something I'll have to test once I get these devices in the lab.
If you want to get your hands on a gaming laptop with an RTX 5090, however, you should start to see them on store shelves in March.
The Age of 4K Gaming Laptops?
While 4K gaming laptops have been a thing for a while, mobile-class graphics chips are usually a little too weak to handle the most demanding games at that resolution. While 4K performance on gaming laptops has certainly improved over the last couple of generations, there are still times where I try to boot up Cyberpunk 2077 with path tracing on an RTX 4090 laptop, only to remember that it's a bit too ambitious.
With the RTX 5000 series, particularly the 5090, it looks like gaming laptops sporting 4K displays – which is becoming more common on high-end devices – will be much better equipped to play pretty much any game at native resolution.
Either way, I won't know exactly how these new GPUs will perform at 4K – or any resolution – until I'm able to benchmark it. Luckily, I won't have to wait long to see what the next generation of gaming laptops will look like.
