Which GPU should you choose for Blender?
RTX 4090 is the stronger Blender rendering pick here based on benchmark score.
Cycles rendering performance
RTX 4090 leads by 563.2% in the Renderjuice Blender benchmark model (11,571 vs 1,745). For render-time-first decisions, that is the card to prioritize.
VRAM and scene capacity
RTX 4090 has more scene headroom with 24 GB of VRAM versus 12 GB on TITAN V. That matters most for large environments, dense geometry, high-resolution textures, and less optimized production files.
Power ratings and cooling
TITAN V is the lower-power option at 250 W TDP, compared with 450 W for RTX 4090. If render speed is close, that can make TITAN V easier to cool and run quietly.
Is the upgrade worthwhile?
RTX 4090 is both the newer and faster Blender rendering choice here. The main reason to choose TITAN V would be price, availability, existing ownership, or a specific workstation requirement.
Comparison summary
RTX 4090 leads the Blender benchmark score by 563.2%.
Fastest in Cycles: RTX 4090 563% faster than TITAN V.
Most VRAM: RTX 4090 100% more VRAM than TITAN V.
Lowest power draw: TITAN V 44% lower rating than RTX 4090.
Cheapest: Cannot compare Price unavailable for some GPUs.
Best value for money: Cannot compare Price or benchmark unavailable for some GPUs.
RTX 4090 has 24 GB of VRAM, while TITAN V has 12 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.
