NVIDIA's next-generation GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPU lineup for laptops featuring the latest GDDR7 memory has leaked out.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" Laptop GPU Lineup Leak Reveals Up To 16 GB GDDR7 Memory, Six SKUs Planned For 2025
The leak comes from a ransomware attack on CLEVO that has exposed the CPU and GPU roadmap of several next-generation AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA chips. The leak includes details on the next-generation GeForce RTX 50 lineup for laptops which is codenamed Blackwell and from the looks of it, there are at least six variants in the works, all with the latest GDDR7 memory. Following is the full list:
- GN22-X11 (16 GB GDDR7)
- GN22-X9 (16 GB GDDR7)
- GN22-X7 (12 GB GDDR7)
- GN22-X6 (8 GB GDDR7)
- GN22-X4 (8 GB GDDR7)
- GN22-X2 (8 GB GDDR7)
Starting with the top SKUs, at least two variants serve the high-end laptop segment, the GN22-X11 and the GN22-X9. Both of these chips feature 16 GB GDDR7 memory running across a 256-bit bus interface and are based around the GN22 Board 1 PCB which is a new package and not pin-to-pin compatible with the existing GN21 "Ada" GeForce RTX 40 GPUs. These two chips are likely to use the GB203 GPU while the third chip is likely based on the GB205 GPU. This chip is called the GN22-X7 and features 12 GB GDDR7 memory across a 192-bit bus interface.
Moving over to the entry-level parts, we have the GN22-X6, GN22-X4, and the GN22-X2. All three GPUs feature 8 GB GDDR7 memory and are likely to feature a 128-bit bus while utilizing the GB206 and GB207 GPU SKUs. What's interesting is that these GPUs aren't meant to replace the entry-level lineup since the RTX 4050 6 GB, RTX 3050 6 GB, and the RTX 2050 4 GB (64-bit) will continue in 2025.
All three of the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" Laptop GPUs will be using the GN22 Board 2 which once again is a new package design and isn't pin-to-pin compatible with older PCBs.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" Laptop GPUs are likely to be introduced by CES 2025 and will be powering the latest mobility gaming platforms with next-generation CPUs such as AMD''s Fire Range and Intel's Arrow Lake. Expect more information on these GPUs after the launch of the desktop family which is currently rumored to be launched either in late 2024 or early 2025.
