Following scorching on the ray-traced heels of that leak masking off the RTX 5050, RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti desktop GPUs comes information that the cell variations of the RTX 5050 and RTX 5060 ought to be out there in laptops from May.
The kicker right here is that it ought to allow RTX 50 laptops to dip under the $1,000 mark and in accordance with Videocardz some RTX 5050 and and RTX 5060 laptops have been noticed on Acer Hong Kong’s web site and will probably be out there in May.
The caveat? We do not know the total specs of those GPUs, whereas the broader Nvidia Blackwell RTX 50 household is mostly proving to not be a dramatic advance on the outgoing RTX 40 household.
Anyway, no official specs are recognized for both GPU. But provided that Nvidia has revealed full particulars of the RTX 5070 laptop computer chip, we are able to safely assume that represents an higher restrict.
The 5070 laptop computer, sadly, is an 8 GB GPU with a 128-bit reminiscence bus. So, it is probably the 5050 and 5060 will likewise provide not more than 8 GB. Similarly, the 5070’s 4,608 CUDA cores signify an higher certain. The new GPUs will are available decrease than that.
How a lot decrease is not recognized, however laptop computer GPUs are likely to align with the desktop, however one tier decrease. We even have the latest hearsay of the desktop RTX 5060 providing 3,840 cores and the desktop RTX 5060 TI rocking the identical 4,608 cores because the laptop computer RTX 5070.
The confounding issue right here is there seems to be no RTX 5060 Ti laptop computer chip. So, hopefully, the RTX 5060 laptop computer will get the identical 3,840 cores because the desktop, simply with decrease clocks. If so, it will be a good step over the RTX 4060 laptop computer chip and its 3,072 cores.
That would go away the RTX 5050 laptop computer to align with the RTX 5050 desktop, which is rumoured to have 2,560 cores. Anyway, the broad level right here holds. These new GPUs ought to allow a tranche of latest lower-cost gaming portables to rank amongst our favorite gaming laptops.
