The RTX 5050 laptop variant has shown up on Geekbench. Specs-wise, it isn't different from the RTX 4050 laptop, with the notable exception of more VRAM.

A new Geekbench listing has finally revealed the specs of Nvidia's upcoming GeForce RTX 5050 laptop GPU. As expected, it will feature fewer CUDA cores than the RTX 5050. If Acer's listing is accurate, it could have a max TGP of 100 Watts. One leak says it could launch with GDDR7 memory, while another insists it might follow its desktop counterpart and use GDDR6 modules.

The RTX 5050 laptop GPU scores 88,727 in Geekbench's OpenCL benchmark. That represents an 11% increase in performance over the RTX 4050 (79,601). Of course, this figure could vary depending on how much power the RTX 5050 draws. Moving on to it specs, Geekbench confirms 8 GB of dedicated VRAM. Lastly, the RTX 5050 sample here has 20 SMs or 2,560 CUDA cores, about 500 fewer than the RTX 5060.

It has a boost clock of 2.5 GHz. Incidentally, this CUDA core count is the same as the RTX 4050, as is the boost clock. In conclusion, the RTX 5050 will not offer much in the way of raw performance uplift based on its silicon alone. Its GDDR7 modules might help a little, and the rest of the computational power will come from AI-powered features like DLSS and Multi Frame Gen.
