Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 reportedly features TDP of 575W, RTX 5080 set at 360W

NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 graphics cards are set to feature significant power requirements, with the RTX 5090 having a thermal design power (TDP) of 575W, which is 125W more than the RTX 4090's 450W. The RTX 5080's TDP is confirmed at 360W, down from earlier estimates of 400W. The RTX 5090 will utilize the GB202 GPU with 21,760 CUDA cores, marking it as the first GeForce model to exceed 20,000 cores, and will include 32GB of GDDR7 memory on a 512-bit memory interface. In contrast, the RTX 5080 will feature the GB203 GPU with 10,752 CUDA cores and 16GB of GDDR7 memory. Both models are expected to support PCIe 5.0 and DisplayPort 2.1a. Despite the increased power and specifications, there are no substantial technological upgrades compared to the previous Ada Lovelace generation. NVIDIA is anticipated to announce pricing soon, with the RTX 5080 expected to launch in mid-January 2025, while the release date for the RTX 5090 remains unconfirmed.
