These timings are derived from Blender Open Data benchmark medians and should be treated as comparative estimates, not guaranteed real-project render times.

Which GPU makes more sense?

RTX 5090 D v2 is the stronger Blender rendering pick here based on benchmark score.

Blender render speed

RTX 5090 D v2 leads by 4787.8% in the Renderjuice Blender benchmark model (12,965 vs 265). For render-time-first decisions, that is the card to prioritize.

VRAM and scene headroom

RTX 5090 D v2 has more scene headroom with 24 GB of VRAM versus 4 GB on GTX 1630. That matters most for large environments, dense geometry, high-resolution textures, and less optimized production files.

Power and cooling

GTX 1630 is the lower-power option at 75 W TDP, compared with 575 W for RTX 5090 D v2. If render speed is close, that can make GTX 1630 easier to cool and run quietly.

Upgrade decision

RTX 5090 D v2 is both the newer and faster Blender rendering choice here. The main reason to choose GTX 1630 would be price, availability, existing ownership, or a specific workstation requirement.

Quick take on GTX 1630 vs RTX 5090 D v2

RTX 5090 D v2 leads the Blender benchmark score by 4787.8%.

Fastest in Blender: RTX 5090 D v2 12,965.28 score.

Most VRAM: RTX 5090 D v2 24 GB.

Lowest power draw: GTX 1630 75 W TDP.

GTX 1630 has 4 GB of VRAM, while RTX 5090 D v2 has 24 GB, which matters when scenes, textures, or geometry get heavier.

If you are deciding between these cards for Blender, focus first on Blender benchmark score, VRAM capacity, memory bandwidth, and whether your scenes are likely to benefit more from raw speed or extra memory headroom. The comparison table above keeps those tradeoffs in one place.
