NVIDIA RTX 5080 will hit the market before RTX 5090.
Just yesterday, new information leaked about the biggest sister of the RTX 50 series. We were curious about how NVIDIA created a launch game changer for the first time in history and commented on it. Supposed reasons for delaying the implementation of the high and medium-high range until 2025. Well, the biggest source of information among the greens answered directly by ear
give something to talk about because The RTX 5080 should hit the market before the RTX 5090.what’s happening?
Where was it said, I say, now it’s time to tell Diego. The Spanish proverb is more alive than ever and more useful than ever, but with more uncertainty than ever. NVIDIA’s biggest leaker debunks the latest rumors and gives clues about what NVIDIA will be doing this year and how many graphics cards will hit the market early 2025.
NVIDIA will release the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 at different times, but they will be revealed at the same time.
In other words, a normal presentation where the entry-level RTX 5070 would even be considered, although there is one thing: GPUs as such. And we are talking about a completely different discrepancy between chips, which is rarely found among greens, namely:
- GB202 -> RTX 5090
- GB203 -> RTX 5080
- GB205 -> RTX 5070
Why RTX 5070 Would I stay away from this? Firstly, because Kopite7kimi didn’t call her that. In fact, given yesterday’s rumors, he stated that it is not true that, according to his sources, the RTX 5080 should hit the market before the RTX 5090.
This logically gives the launches a complete turnaround and would be the opposite of what we saw with the RTX 4090 and RTX 4080, since although both were introduced on September 20, 2022, the youngest of the sisters arrived more than a month later than the eldest. This has not happened before with the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080, although the time gap between them was only a few days.
Why did NVIDIA release high-end before premium?
Theorizing about this paradigm shift and giving more weight for obvious reasons to what Kopite7kimi said, NVIDIA’s reasons for pushing the release of a minor version over a major one have only one possible explanation: AMD and Intel with
RX 8000 and Arc 800.
Logically, more out of concern for the reds than the blues, but Intel’s good price/performance/consumption ratio cannot be ignored here. For NVIDIA to release the RTX 5080 early, its competitors’ high-end lineups would need to be released well before the market, but why not hit them directly with the RTX 5090 instead of launching the RTX 5080?
Again, there will be reasons high price of the fastest video card. There are certain rumors that this statement increase in recommended retail price for the RTX 5090, while the RTX 5080 will be “more earthy.” The argument in favor of this is the discrepancy in the characteristics, more precisely, we are talking about double the power, doubling the characteristics of one over the other, which, although it will not lead to doubling the actual performance, is not far off.
Nevertheless, PTX 5090 maybe on
US$1699leaving PTX 5080 Above US$899although it is true that there is other rumors pointing to $999 as suggested retail price. Unfounded or completely wrong, we’ll have to wait a few more months for someone to step in and provide more accurate numbers.
