When the RTX 40 series of laptops were launched, the performance disappointed many of the users as they had limited memory capacity. However, the Nvidia upcoming next-gen RTX 50 GPUs for laptops will fix all these issues as the specifications of the RTX 5090 24 GB VRAM have been revealed.
A new generation of graphics cards from NVIDIA, AMD, and even Intel has been anticipated for almost two years.
Why it matters: The three tech companies released their latest GPUs in 2022, and we haven’t heard anything official about the next generation since.
While Intel did indeed unveil the Xe2 architecture and its theoretical improvements, in reality, only the iGPU tests conducted on Lunar Lake were demonstrated. Regarding AMD, there was no mention of the Radeon RX 8000, while NVIDIA’s only offering was Blackwell for AI.
We are unsure if these products will indeed be released in 2024 or if they will ultimately be released in 2025 because of no official information from these companies. Right now, all we can do is wait for the leaks and rumours. Thus, the features and anticipated release date of the RTX 5090 laptop are covered in a new video from Moore’s Law is Dead.
If you remember correctly, there is a significant VRAM issue with the RTX 40 laptops, in which the RTX 4050 required 6 GB of RAM, the RTX 4070 8 GB, and the RTX 4080 12 GB.
With the RTX 4090, we got 16 GB, which was the same as the PC version of the RTX 4080. This has been resolved with the RTX 50, or at the very least the RTX 5090, as it will use a 256-bit interface and 24 GB of GDDR7 memory instead of 16 GB.
The RTX 5090 laptop CPU will be known as GB203; it will be 377 mm2 in size, just like the previous version. It appears that the 24 GB model is the only one that will be available because there won’t be other versions with less memory.
According to Moore, NVIDIA is awaiting the release of 3 GB GDDR7 memory modules for its GPUs, which is why there is a delay. Moore also indicates the launch of the PC version RTX 50 series will be later this year.
