There has been much anticipation for Nvidia’s upcoming RTX 50 series for some time now. June saw the most recent leak about mobile GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs, and it happened again now.
Based on the information provided on Seasonic’s page, the RTX 5090 is expected to consume 500W of power, which is 50 watts more than the RTX 4090. This change could bring about architectural improvements and close performance disparities between current models. Likewise, the TDP of the RTX 5080 is anticipated to be 350W, whereas that of the RTX 4080 was 320W.
The modification was initially noticed by @Olrak29_ on X (formerly Twitter) on Seasonic’s PSU wattage calculator homepage. After visiting the website and completing the necessary fields, you can select an RTX 50 series card to add to your configuration using the drop-down list. Once the text file has been downloaded and opened, you may check the TDP values for the card you have chosen after saving the configuration.
As previously indicated, Nvidia’s plan for mobile RTX 50 GPUs was disclosed in a previously leaked roadmap from laptop manufacturer Clevo (in June). The RTX 50 series is expected to include six different options, with the RTX 5090 serving as the flagship model. However, the lower end of the market will likely continue to rely on the RTX 3050 and RTX 4050 variants. It’s interesting to note that two RTX 5080 models with different amounts of VRAM are also referenced.
It’s crucial to remember that these specifics are based on hearsay and leaks. It is anticipated that Nvidia will begin releasing consumer graphics cards in the 50-series in October. This year, the RTX 5080 will probably be the first model to be released, rather than the 5090.
