With CES 2025 approaching, the frequency of leaks about Nvidia's upcoming GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards have been picking up steam. One of them made a cameo alongside The Witcher 4 showcase at The Game Awards. Now, Videocardz spotted what looks like Nvidia's entire CES 2025 lineup.
A now-deleted drop-down menu buried deep with in Zotac's website shows off four SKUs: GeForce RTX 5090, RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070; five if you count the China-only RTX 5090D. A filter on its website also tacitly confirms the GeForce RTX 5090 will launch with 32 GB GDDR7 VRAM. Not exactly a secret, but nice to have a confirmation. These will likely be the first SKUs out of the door and we hope none of them get 'unlaunched' this time.
As far as the GeForce RTX 5080 goes, it isn't due much of an upgrade. Kopite7Kimi said earlier its GB 203 GPU would be half the size of the RTX 5090's GB 202 and come with 16 GB VRAM. Interestingly, that's how much VRAM we'll get on the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5060 Ti. But, the latter isn't scheduled to show up at CES and might be unveiled later in 2025. That leaves us with the vanilla GeForce RTX 5070 which gets 12 GB of VRAM.
Unfortunately, the GeForce RTX 5060 will, once again, be stuck with 8 GB of VRAM. While it should get substantial performance upgrades thanks to a new architecture, DLSS and other software-driven features, it will be bested by competing offerings from AMD and Intel in VRAM-heavy titles such as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (read our review here). The Arc B580, in particular, could offer decent value in the $250-300 GPU market; one that Nvidia stopped paying attention to for a while.
