In addition to the desktop graphics cards, NVIDIA has also unveiled the GeForce RTX 5090, 5080, 5070 Ti & 5070 for high-end gaming laptops.
NVIDIA Blackwell Enters The Gaming Laptop Segment With 24 GB GeForce RTX 5090, RTX 5080, 5070 Ti & 5070 GPUs
NVIDIA's Blackwell AI GPU architecture is coming to high-end gaming laptops with the RTX 50 series lineup. These GPUs will offer expanded capabilities through the updated architecture while utilizing new upgrades to expand their efficiency. According to NVIDIA, the RTX 50 laptop GPUs will come in designs as thin as 14.9mm, which are made possible using new Max-Q innovations. One advantage comes through the use of GDDR7, which provides ultra-low voltage states that allow these laptops to run longer and also faster.
In terms of specifications, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU is going to be the flagship chip with a humongous 24 GB GDDR7 VRAM running across a 256-bit bus interface. This chip will offer a total of 10,496 CUDA cores in a 95-150W TGP package and offer up to 1824 AI TOPS.
In addition to the flagship RTX 5090, NVIDIA is also going to offer RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5070 GPUs for laptops. Starting with the RTX 5080, the chip gets 7680 CUDA cores with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory and an 80-150W TGP, the RTX 5070 Ti gets 5888 CUDA cores with 12 GB of GDDR7 memory and a 60-115W TGP, while the RTX 5070 gets 4608 CUDA cores with 8 GB of GDDR7 VRAM and a 50-100W TGP.
There's no word on the performance, but given what we have seen on the desktop graphics cards, we can expect the performance to be doubled over the existing RTX 40 "Ada" lineup along with the support for DLSS 4. NVIDIA anticipates the launch of the first GeForce RTX 50-powered laptops in March 2025, so within Q1 2025. We can expect designs from leading partners such as Acer, ASUS, Dell, GIGABYTE, HP, Lenovo, MECHREVO, MSI, and Razer.
