Nothing is set in stone yet, and it is unlikely to be confirmed by anyone at this point, but one thing is certain: when it comes to NVIDIA GPU leaks, Kopite7kimi seems to be one of the most reliable sources. The leaker has responded to claims that the RTX 5090 graphics card could be the only model launching this year. These reports have no basis and technically make no sense, but Kopite wants to set the record straight.

According to the leaker, the GeForce RTX 5080 should actually appear before the RTX 5090, the supposed next-gen flagship GPU based on the Blackwell architecture. Contrary to the reports that the RTX 5090 would be the only SKU launching this year, it would actually be released after the RTX 5080.

Keep in mind that Kopite7kimi might be seeing a cut down die and thinking that it’s the 5080… while Nvidia will release that die and named it 5090 at $2000

OK, let's just hope the 5080 is actually affordable and a worthy upgrade from the 3080.

5080 to lube you up before the pounding the 5090 price will give you.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Confusing and conflicting rumors.

I’m guessing they’re releasing a very cut-down chip that should be called 5080 but they’re planning on branding it the 5090, until gamer backlash forces them to change the name back to 5080

 

[Holammer]

Been holding off upgrading GPU for yonks now and I'm still on a 1080.

Can't wait to get rid of this shitty 4090, feels like forever.

 

[Magic Carpet]

5090 or Bust.

 

[Ozriel]

5080 should once again be the sweet spot in terms of performance and power consumption. In for one when it shows up.

Hopefully this means they’ve got 5xxx series laptop GPUs for next year’s gaming laptop refreshes too

 

[Hudo]

once again

wasn't true for the 4080, tho. That shit is still overpriced like hell.

 

[The Cockatrice]

You guys definitely need a 5090 to play all those indie games lmao. Wake me up when we get actual demanding visual beasts on PC. Until then, 7080 is a more realistic wait for buy.

 

[BlackTron]

Shopping season for 40 series incoming

Can't wait for another paper launch

Nvidia affordable.

I'm a little concerned on pricing with GDDR7 memory making its debut on RTX 50xx.

 

[Kataploom]

I'm a little concerned on pricing with GDDR7 memory making its debut on RTX 50xx.

I'm more concerned about the power port they're using these days, literally the only thing keeping me from thinking on getting an Nvidia card until it's solved, but I'm whiling to give it a go if reports are good.

 

[squidilix]

2500$

Thank you.

 

[Cyborg]

These Nvidia GPU will come down in price when we have a competitor that is able to match them in every aspect.

 

[IDKFA]

OK, let's just hope the 5080 is actually affordable and a worthy upgrade from the 3080.

I'm hoping for a £400 price point. I think that's fair for a GPU.

I'm also delusional

 

[Ozriel]

I said nothing about price. My comment was all about efficiency. the 4080 had better performance per watt than the 4090

[Trogdor1123]

I wonder what feature they will lock behind the new generation this time?

 

[Pimpollo818]

hold strong, brother. keep playing them indie/less graphically demanding titles.

 

[Jigsaah]

Welp more time to build up the war chest. Can't go back to the 80 tier after the 4090. I'm invested now.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Wouldn't be surprised that it's the gen where they implement their Neural Radiance Cache tech optimized in the RT block for path tracing or a variant of it. Tech is already software ready in RTXGI SDK 2.0 but their papers if I recall showed many areas of improvements on hardware side.

Basically more AI



I would be shocked if 5000 series is not tailored made for making it the Defacto Path tracer, leaving Ada and Ampere in the dust for PT.

 

[DenchDeckard]

I'm hearing 5080 and 5090 this year..the rest 2025 so....maybe?

 

[Dr.D00p]

All I'd say is If you are considering a 90 class, then get it in the launch period.

It's the only time it makes sense to get one.

You'll get two solid years of enjoyment out of it, no worries about it being superceded by a mid gen refresh or their 2nd hand value falling.

 

[Hudo]

Ah sorry. I misread. For some reason I read sweet spot in terms of performance and price.

Mea culpa.

No worries at all. I use dual 1440p monitors so the 4090p was overkill for me…and the 4080 uses like 100w less power.

I’m not sure I’ll move up from 1440p anytime soon, so the 5080 would probably be the more sane upgrade for me.

Can’t deny I haven’t been tempted by the 4090 though…

 

[Eliciel]

5080 2500€ confirmed!

 

[amigastar]

I have an RTX 4070 so i will wait for a 6070 or 7070 in the future.

 

[Randall365]

Only overpriced if the 4090 exists

 

[Griffon]

Nvidia still trying to catch up to SGi workstation prices from the 90s.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

But this is the 5090. They're just planning on releasing an RTX 6000 a couple months later. 3500$ you will save so much money.

 

[ReyBrujo]

Well, duh, 5080 is lower than 5090!

I've been one of the premium retards who bought a 4090 for the price Nivida were asking for.

What can I say? I am a massive idiot.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

I will probably be selling my 4090 around that time

Can’t wait for that new vid cards smell !!!
