But still no one dares to mention the price.
The highly anticipated RTX 5000 generation from Nvidia is just around the corner. The portal wccftech wants to know all the technical details and the release date of the RTX 5090, RTX 5080 and RTX 5070 graphics cards without exception.
As previously speculated, the trio of new RTX GPUs is indeed expected to be announced at CES 2025. The organizers of the technology trade show recently confirmed that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang will open CES with his own keynote address!
The wccftech report also confirms many of the more recent leaks surrounding RTX 5000. The RTX 5090, for example, will use the Blackwell generation GB202-300 chip – but in contrast to the full version, it contains “only” 21,760 shader units. The 32 GB GDDR7 memory with a 512-bit interface has also been the subject of rumors, and the 600-watt TDP is no stranger either.
A detail of the RTX 5080 is somewhat more interesting: in contrast to the flagship model with 28 Gbps, this one will receive the slightly faster GDDR7 memory with 32 Gbps. However, wccftech also only mentions 16 GB VRAM with a 256-bit interface here. Further data from the leak amounts to 10,752 CUDA cores and a power consumption of 400 watts.
Surprisingly, the RTX 5070 is also to be announced at CES 2025, about which there has been comparatively little information so far. The wccftech leak also doesn’t provide any information about the chip used or even the number of shader units. On the other hand, 12 GB GDDR7 VRAM (28 GBps) with a 192-bit connection is said to be certain. Compared to its predecessor, the TDP increases slightly to 250 watts.
| RTX 5090 | RTX 5080 | RTX 5070 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Graphics chip | GB202-300 21,760 CUDA cores | GB203-400 10,752 CUDA cores | N/A |
| Memory size and type | 32 GB GDDR7 | 16 GB GDDR7 | 12 GB GDDR7 |
| Memory interface and speed | 512-bit 28 Gbps | 256-bit 32 Gbps | 192-bit 28 Gbps |
| Bandwidth | 1,792 GB/s | 1,024 GB/s | 672 GB/s |
| Power consumption | 600 watts | 400 watts | 250 Watt |
In principle, all of the upcoming Nvidia graphics cards will use the 12V-2×6 power connector, which Nvidia has made standard for its in-house products with the introduction of the RTX40 super GPUs.
In terms of connections, DisplayPort 2.1a with the full 80 Gbps should be on board. However, a price is still missing.
In addition, according to wccftech, Nvidia is to make changes to the graphics cards’ PCB: “Back Drilling” has therefore been revised. Put simply, this involves removing small copper residues that occur during the manufacturing process. With the new method, the signal integrity between the RTX 5000 GPU and the GDDR7 memory is better – but no details are given.
Now we want to hear your opinion: What do you think of the technical data of the RTX 5000 graphics cards (assuming they are correct)? Will you follow CES 2025 more closely because of the Nvidia GPUs? Let us know in the comments!
