NVIDIA's Next-Gen GeForce RTX 50 Series Mobile GPUs Break Cover With GDDR7
According to some potential leaked information shared via user Alvieri on X, we should expect NVIDIA's next-generation GPUs to make an appearance on mobile. Clevo, an OEM laptop manufacturer, apparently had its roadmap information revealed concerning its future laptop plans.
The first tidbit of information is that NVIDIA's new Blackwell GPUs in consumer form will feature GDDR7 memory, just like we expect the desktop GPUs to have. While GPUs such as the GeForce RTX 5090 have been rumored to feature GDDR7 with as much as a 512-bit memory bus, the mobile variants will be comparatively tamer, as is typically case.
For example, the existing mobile GeForce RTX 4090 GPU in laptops features 16GB of VRAM, and its performance falls short of the desktop GeForce RTX 4090 with 24GB of VRAM. It's still an uber-powerful GPU, but the thermal confines of the laptop form factor necessitate having to tone thing down a bit.
With a total of six GPUs mentioned, the RTX 5090 will likely be based on GN22-X11. Other GPUs will be divided between GN22 boards 1 and 2, ranging from 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB VRAM capacities.
If NVIDIA follows its history, we should expect launches of the high-end RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 first, which should come sometime in 2025. The other lower tiered products should come after, such as the RTX 5070 and below.
