Arrr me hearties! Word on the high seas be that a scurvy dog on YouTube hath been blabberin' 'bout them Blackwell GPUs. Aye, there be both fair winds and foul in this tale, so keep a weather eye on the horizon, me mateys!
Nvidia’s Blackwell laptop graphics cards are expected to arrive in early 2025, with leaked information regarding the video memory they will feature. The leak comes from Moore’s Law is Dead (MLID), a reliable source for GPU and CPU leaks. The flagship RTX 5090 is rumored to have 16GB of VRAM and a 256-bit memory bus, similar to the RTX 4090. The RTX 5080 is also said to have 16GB of VRAM, potentially using the same chip as the flagship, which could make it faster.There is speculation that Nvidia might name the RTX 5080 Ti to reflect the upgraded performance. The third tier GPU is expected to have 12GB of VRAM, an increase from 8GB on the RTX 4070. However, the fourth tier GPU may only have 8GB of VRAM, disappointing some users.While there are both positive and negative aspects to these leaks, it is important to remember that this information is speculative and may not be accurate. MLID sources have a good track record, but it is still early to draw conclusions. The Blackwell GPUs are anticipated to be released in March 2025, catering to gaming laptops.
