Until now we did not have any news related to the development of these new GPUs for laptops. Again, it has been the Moore’s Law Is Dead podcast, who has published an image of what the design of the RTX 5080 for laptops will be.
NVIDIA’s RTX 50 range for laptops
According to the information they have had access to, NVIDIA has begun sending samples of the RTX 50 for laptops, specifically the RTX 5080 model. As we can see in the following image, it is an engineering sample where the model.
This has a more rectangular design than the one found in the RTX 40 generation and which corresponds to the architecture Ada Lovelace, architecture that with the RTX 50 will give way to Blackwell, the same architecture that is also available in the new NVIDIA graphics for servers.
Instead, the code N22W-ES-A1 is displayed. This GPU will be managed by the chip GB203the same one that is also found in the RTX 5090, and has 8192 CUDA Cores and 16 GB of GDDR7 memory. It should be remembered that the new RTX 50 will be managed, at least the highest-end models by the GB202 GPU.
With this configuration, Moore’s Law Is Dead claims that this graphics card will offer 45 to 65% better performance compared to the RTX 4080 12GB and higher performance by 10-25% compared to the RTX 4090 with 16GB of RAM.
This performance improvement that they predict from this podcast, as long as the speed of the GDDR7 memory be 28 Gbps or higher and with equipment with a consumption of 175W or higher. According to them, the performance of the RTX 5080 graphics for laptops will offer similar performance to what we can currently find in the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER for desktop.
While it is true that establishing such a wide margin of error is impossible to make a mistake, what is clear is that the RTX 5080 for laptops will be more powerful than the RTX 4090 in the same version.
The information published in the latest edition of this podcast coincides with a leak of the specifications of the Clevo board manufacturer where the entire line of RTX 50 graphics was shown. The G22 code corresponds to GPUs with Blackwell architecture and will be available in up to 6 different versions.
Contrasting the information from Moore’s Law Is Dead with that leaked by the manufacturer Clevo, the graphics models that NVIDIA would plan to launch on the market within the RTX 50 range for laptops would be:
- RTX 5090
- RTX 5080 Ti
- RTX 5080
- RTX 5070
- RTX 5060
- RTX 5050
If NVIDIA has already begun to distribute samples of the new range of graphics for laptops, it is a clear indication that it is more than likely that, during the same event where NVIDIA will present the new RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 graphics for desktop computers, it will also be will show the new generation of graphics in the RTX 50 range for laptops.
