Nvidia’s RTX 5090 will reportedly embrace 32GB of VRAM and hefty energy necessities

Nvidia is reportedly planning to ship its upcoming GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card with 32GB of GDDR7 reminiscence. {Hardware} leaker Kopite7kimi has printed rumored specs for the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 as we speak, and each playing cards will reportedly be extra energy hungry as Nvidia seems to debut extra succesful next-gen GPUs.

The RTX 5090 is claimed to have a 600-watt spec, though as VideoCardz factors out it’s not clear if this refers to how a lot the complete GPU board attracts, or how a lot energy the chip itself consumes. Both method, it seems just like the RTX 5090 will draw 150 watts greater than the 450 watts that the RTX 4090 pulls. The RTX 5090 will even reportedly embrace 32GB of GDDR7 reminiscence on a 512-bit bus, with 21,760 CUDA cores.

Equally, the RTX 5080 is claimed to make use of 400 watts of energy, up from the RTX 4080’s 320-watt whole graphics energy. The RTX 5080 will additionally reportedly ship with 16GB of GDDR7 reminiscence and a 256-bit reminiscence bus, with 10,752 CUDA cores.

Kopite7kimi has leaked quite a lot of GPU info through the years, and has a dependable monitor report for Nvidia {hardware} leaks. Kopite7kimi beforehand revealed the specs of the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 playing cards forward of their launch, the launch dates of the RTX 4070 / RTX 4080 Tremendous playing cards, and the return of the 12GB RTX 4080 because the RTX 4070 Ti. Additionally they accurately predicted the RTX 4090 would require 450 watts of energy.

Whereas the specs for Nvidia’s high RTX 50-series playing cards might have been leaked already, dates for once we’ll see these playing cards haven’t been shared. I perceive from one supply aware of Nvidia’s plans that we would hear extra concerning the RTX 50-series on the Client Electronics Present in early 2025.
