According to the latest behind-the-scenes information, NVIDIA's new flagship card will feature 24 GB of GDDR7 VRAM with a speed of 28 Gbps, a 512-bit bus and a bandwidth of 1536 GB/s.

The new information, released by leaker @kopite7kimi, points to the jump in speed from 21 Gbps in the RTX 4090 to 28 Gbps for the implementation of GDDR7 in NVIDIA's new top of the line, based on the Blackwell architecture. Remember that this new DRAM standard can exceed this barrier, reaching up to 64 Gbit. As for the bus, the new rumors point to 512 bits



If the rumors are true. The RTX 50 should be configured as follows:
  • GB202 - 512-bit bus, 24 GB VRAM, 1536 GB/s bandwidth;
  • GB203 - 384-bit bus, 16 GB VRAM, 1024 GB/s bandwidth;
  • GB204 - 256-bit bus, 12 GB VRAM, 768 GB/s bandwidth;
  • GB206 - 192-bit bus, 8 GB VRAM, 512 GB bandwidth;
  • GB207 - 128-bit bus, 8 GB VRAM, 512 GB/s bandwidth.

@Nhomnhom, I expect a review of one of these beasts from you on day one.

No bloody excuses; you are the new VFX on these forums.

Time to stand up and deliver PC Boy.

i have a feeling this might melt that 800 dollar budget a couple of times 🙁

I plan to stay with my 4060 for a while I regret trading my 6600 for it already. I didn't know Nvidia didnt support HDMI FreeSync.

There are hardly any games worthty it that demands an expensive GPU.

They have there own standard i think, sucks if you have a monitor for the freesync though

But why?

What games will this power that are worth the money? It's not like back in the day with PC elitism, back when they had a reason to be elitist.

Show me games and memes like "can it run crisis".

No game, PC or otherwise, has justified the cost of hardware for a long, long time. The Order 1886 looking incredible on a launch PS4, which was very cheap at launch.

Who cares? Why wouldn't you want more power, better price/performance and better performance per watt, more modern features and the like.

We absolutely need the low end to have a significant increase in price/performance and other tiers to follow suit. You gotta make all those 1060/580/1650 users to upgrade after years of stagnation.

I for once would like the 5050 to release first to set the tone for the rest of the lineup and for other GPU vendors to readjust strategies.

If there are no games making good use of all that power (which is debateable) hardware vendors are not to blame.

Why pay an arm and a leg for no reason? What's the extra power going to do? 4k@120fps ultra with RT?

I agree with this. The lower powered cards should be reduced in price massively.

This is why we need a Crysis 4

I'll definitely be grabbing one of these on day 1, relegating my 4090 to Streaming PC duty lol

Then I just need to get some DisplayPort 2.1 dual 4K ultrawide 240Hz beast of a display. Maybe a 2nd gen Samsung 57" Odyssey G9 if there is one by that point

Avatar at unobtanium settings in 4K ultrawide at 240Hz will need it

Probably lucky to get over 120Hz even.

Hey @John Elden Ring your post contradicts the thread title.

As for the bus, the new rumors point to 384-bits, instead of the 512-bits initially rumored.

What games are even really taking advantage of these cards these days?
