Nvidia will launch its next GeForce RTX 5090 equipped with as much as 32 GDDR7 memory. Today, hardware leaker Kopite7kimi released rumored specifications for the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 today and as expected, the two will require more watts as Nvidia seeks to market more powerful GPUs for the next generation.
As VideoCardz pointed out previously, this is not clear if it indicates how much power the whole GPU board uses, or how much the chip utilizes. Essentially, it notifies a 600-watt spec for an RTX 5090. Either that, or the RTX 5090 appears to draw around 150W more than the 450W being drawn by the RTX 4090. It also has a 32 GB GDDR7 memory on a forceful 512-bit bus and a total of 21,760 CUDA cores. There were rumors that the RTX 5080 is drawing out power of 400W, 16W more than the RTX 4080 that goes for 320W of power. In as much as memories are concerned, it is said that the RTX 5080 has a GDDR7, 16GB with a 256-bit memory bus as well as 10,752 CUDA Cores. Kopite7kimi has shared various GPU bits of information over the years and, in terms of accuracy on Nvidia hardware, it is actually quite good.
Despite that, Kopite7kimi had released some leaks of specs of the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 cards earlier, the release dates of the RTX 4070/RTX 4080 Super cards, and even the rebranding of the 12GB RTX 4080 to RTX 4070 Ti; he was right on predicting that the RTX 4090 needs 450 watts of Since there are leaks of the specifications of Nvidia’s high-end RTX 50 series cards, we have yet to see those cards surface. According to insiders familiar with Nvidia’s roadmap, we may just be hearing more about the RTX 50 series at CES early next year.
