Nvidia RTX 5090 specs leak suggests a welcome GeForce GPU upgrade

The Nvidia RTX 5090 is undoubtedly some methods off, however even now we’re studying extra in regards to the GeForce flagship’s potential specs. In a bid to maybe keep away from the identical missteps which have harmed the reception of lower-end RTX 40 sequence playing cards, it seems to be like crew inexperienced is giving its future GPUs a reminiscence bandwidth improve.

At present, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 is essentially the most highly effective graphics card you should purchase right this moment, geared up with 24GB of GDDR6X VRAM and a 384-bit reminiscence bus. This offers the pixel pusher loads of bandwidth to sort out video games at 4K and even past, clocking in at over 1,000GB/s. So, as you may anticipate, its successor will push efficiency even additional.

The Nvidia RTX 5090 will allegedly pack a whopping 512-bit reminiscence bus, offering an unprecedentedly massive base for its bandwidth to construct from. We’ll want the GPU’s reminiscence clock fee earlier than we will decide a precise determine, however I don’t think about it’ll be lengthy earlier than kopite7kimi or one other respected {hardware} leaker shares that info.

Excited as I’m on the prospect of ever speedier graphics playing cards, I hope that these wider reminiscence buses and, equally vital, massive quantities of VRAM trickle right down to lower-end GPUs. There’s already rumors that we may even see new variations of some RTX 40 sequence pixel pushers, and I sincerely hope {that a} potential RTX 4070 Super will get a reminiscence buff.

Try my Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti review to be taught extra in regards to the issues piddly quantities of VRAM and skinny reminiscence buses can create in your PC. Nevertheless, for those who’re extra within the newest developments on the RTX 5000 sequence, try our information.
