The GN22-X2 board with 8GB is likely the GeForce RTXD 5050, which replaces the GeForce RTX 4050. The leaked roadmap shows that the GeForce RTX 4050 and GeForce RTX 3050 6GB will continue to march into 2025.

There is some contradiction in your post.

Because the roadmap slide itself mentions that the RTX 4050 will continue to march into 2025. So the GN22-X2 board with 8GB could be some other GPU model, IMO, and not the RTX 5050.

But anyway, instead of giving the leaked IDs a proper GPU codename, let's also divide them based on the GPU die/SKU name as well.

Speculation, but based on current RTX 40 series LAPTOP specs.

GN22-X11 and the GN22-X9, both of these Mobile chips feature 16 GB GDDR7. So expect a 256-bit bus interface, and these two chips could most likely use the GB203 GPU die.

The GN22-X7 features 12 GB GDDR7 memory, so it could use a 192-bit bus interface based on the GB205 GPU.

Finally, we have 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.

GPU ID	GPU SKU	GPU Name (TBD)	Cores	Memory
GN22-X11	GB203	RTX 5090 (Laptop)	TBD	16 GB GDDR7
GN22-X9	GB203	RTX 5080 Ti (Laptop) ??	TBD	16 GB GDDR7
GN22-X7	GB205	RTX 5080 (Laptop)	TBD	12 GB GDDR7
GN22-X6	GB206	RTX 5070 (Laptop)	TBD	8 GB GDDR7
GN22-X4	GB206	RTX 5060 (Laptop)	TBD	8 GB GDDR7
GN22-X2	GB207	RTX 50** (Laptop) ??	TBD	8 GB GDDR7

One more point to be noted.

Since there are no RTX 50 series 6GB Laptop variants listed in this leaked roadmap, assuming it's accurate, then most likely the 8GB SKU/GN22-X2 board is not the RTX 5050 as assumed by the author. Can't say this with surety though.

But just for reference, the current gen RTX 4050 Laptop GPU only comes in a 6GB GDDR6 VRAM flavor.

Nice more 8gb cards on the market
Nvidia aways listen the consumers...
Can't wait to pay 500us on a 5060ti

There should be a law against selling 8 GB and 12 GB cards in 2024.

8gb? yes as even 1080p can use more than that now-a-days.

12gb? thats usable for most games at 1080p.

 

[vinay2070]

12GB on the 80 series is an insult to the customers. Especially with more and more people using it for AI/development etc. 16GB for 80 and 20GB for 90 it should have been.

LOL, apple laptops main memory itself is 8GB. Even in the pro sectors. And that too is shared with GPU. First sue apple for this.

 

[Dr D00p]

I suspect the 12GB card is actually the 5070.

They aren't going to have two 5080s in the stack.

 

[CmdrShepard]

And a whole prebuilt laptop is comparable to a single PC component (video card because I wasn't talking about laptop parts) how exactly?

I wish people would stop comparing apples and oranges.

 

[TechyIT223]

I was expecting an increase in VRAM for the next generation of GPUs.

But maybe these are laptop chips so I hope the desktop variants have different configurations in terms of memory..

They will have but not much is gong to change with the next-gen I'm afraid.

According to new rumours, the upcoming flagship Blackwell card, the RTX 5090, is rumoured to sport a 448-bit memory bus, sporting 28 GB of GDDR7 memory, a deviation from the initial speculation that it would feature a 512-bit memory bus, and 32 GB VRAM.

This suggests a potential shift in the memory configuration initially anticipated for this GPU.

So basically, it will not use all the available 512-bit memory bus of the GB202 die, and only 14 memory modules would be used out of 16. So that should give 28GB VRAM. 4GB more than the current gen RTX 4090.

Also, assuming Nvidia would utilize 28 Gbps speed GDDR7 memory modules initially, we could see a total bandwidth of up to 1568 GB/s on the 5090, which is 56% more bandwidth than the RTX 4090 (384-bit @ 21 Gbps).

They could reserve the remaining VRAM for later Ti variants, if need be, or used it on a "ProViz" RTX GPU.

Just saying people cant sue a company for 8GB VRAM no matter how disgusting it is when other companies are selling whole products with just 8Gigs of RAM.

Nvidia can add more VRAM and AMD eliminated completely in gpu game or they can keep that low VRAM so people have reasons to buy AMD.

 

[renz496]

Get true pro card if you want to do real work with AI or productivity. It was already kind of generous lol for them to even allow those pro app to work on non pro cards. As for gaming nvidia need them to keep buying future cards. Just look at AMD. one of the reason why gpu sales end up tanking was because there is already tons of 12GB/16GB gpu flooding the market after the mining craze.

I never said "people sue", I said "there should be a law against" as in government mandating 16 GB of VRAM be a minimum going forward like they do for many other things that are regulated.

Fully enabled GB202 most likely used for A6000/L40S successor. All of them.

The difference between a "true pro card" and a gaming card is literally a couple of IF statements in driver code.

Doesn't matter. Nvidia aim as a company is to make as much money as possible. Those that use nvidia card for pro work alao use nvidia to make money for themselves so nvidia does not have to be generous about it.

Of course, any fully enabled DIE is usually kept for future pro flagship GPUs. Nvidia has done this in the past as well.

So 4gb and 6gb suits you better?
There always is need for cheap gpus…
Some people does not want to pay $500 to get 8gb gpus… so they need something cheaper with 4gb of vram…

 

[hannibal]

I disagree with this. There are very few games that use more than 8GB at 1080p, even at Max Settings. 8GB can still exist in 2024, but just for the budget line

5050-5050Ti can be 8GB
5060 8GB. 5060Ti 12GB
5070-5070Ti - 16GB
5080-5080Ti - 20GB
5090 - 24GB

Even a 5040 can be 6GB and it could be entry level. Sure, you can't play at 4K 240FPS max settings on it, but not everyone does. Some people still play older games at 1080p, which are perfectly viable for 8GB or even 6GB cards. Some people play mostly indie games, so the 5030 4GB can peacefully exist in 2024 at a price tag of $149. There should be cards for every tier, from indie-side scrollers to 4K 240 RTX. Anything from 4GB - 24GB has its place, even in 2024

5060 hopefully have 8gb
5070 most likely still have 12gb… unless they drop it down…
And 5080 most likely have 16gb… unless they out it down. But that seems unlikely.
All in all the ram will remain the same… because gddr7 is new and expensive, so i expect more expensive gards with same amounth of ram. Other option is to keep the price same and reduce the ram… but that seems unlike to happen.

8gb of vram in a 500.00+ Graphics card in 2024

embarrasing

Damn . If the flagship card would only come with 4GB more VRAM then I don't expect other lower TDP models to see any uplift in memory as well.
