Nvidia reportedly plans July launch for its GeForce RTX 5050 – Specs Revealed!
Nvidia reportedly plans to launch its GDDR6-powered RTX 5050 GPU next month
According to a report from Videocardz, Nvidia is planning to launch a new RTX 50 series GPU model next month. This new graphics card reportedly sports GDDR6 memory, making it the only RTX 50 series GPU not to use faster GDDR7 memory modules. Nvidia’s new GPU is the GeForce RTX 5050, a GPU that was listed by Zotac earlier this year.
Nvidia’s RTX 5050 will likely be Nvidia’s most affordable RTX 50 series GPU model. This new GPU reportedly features 2560 CUDA cores and 8GB of GDDR6 memory. This gives Nvidia’s RTX 5060 50% more CUDA cores, and much more memory bandwidth. This new model also has fewer CUDA cores than Nvidia’s last-generation RTX 4060 (which has 3072 CUDA cores).
(Specifications from Videocardz)
Since Nvidia’s RTX 5060 targets a price tag of $299/£269, we can expect Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5050 to cost much less than this. Given its specifications, we expect this GPU to cost around $200. After all, a GPU with two-thirds of a $300 GPU’s CUDA cores should cost $200 (preferably less).
