Nvidia may plan to announce GeForce RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 graphics cards in the fourth quarter of 2024. The GPU maker’s board partners reported this to UDN Daily. The video cards are expected to be based on the new Blackwell architecture.

“Board partners expect Nvidia’s latest RTX 50 series graphics cards to be unveiled in the fourth quarter,” insiders say. Against the Taiwanese news outlet. According to UDN Money, the focus will initially be on the most high-end models: RTX 5080 and RTX 5090. Board partners create custom video cards based on Nvidia GPUs. It is not known which board partners shared their forecasts with UDN Money.

Rumors have been circulating for some time about the arrival of Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 50 series, although few concrete details have been known about the individual models. According to rumors, the RTX 5090 will be based on a GB202 GPU, while the RTX 5080 will have a GB203 chip in a lower position. The fully enabled GB202 and GB203 are expected to score 192 and 96 respectively. Multiprocessor streaming, Writes VideoCardz.

This could be up to 12,288 CUDA cores for the GB203 and 24,576 cores for the GB202. However, both video cards are supposed to have lower GPUs in order to improve productivity during the production process. In fact, the cards will likely have fewer CUDA cores. Additionally, the RTX 50 series was previously expected to use GDDR7 memory. Several manufacturers have said they are working on this type of memory, which offers faster speeds than GDDR6 and GDDR6X.

Famous Nvidia leaker @kopite7kimi He already expressed his predictions last week The first RTX 50 video cards will be available in the market at the end of this year. This leaker also previously said that the RTX 50 cards will feature GDDR7 memory and that the top-placed GB202 chip will have a 512-bit memory bus. Video cards can be produced using TSMC’s 3nm process.
