Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 laptop variant could max out at 115 Watts

Nvidia seems to be in no hurry to launch its next-gen RTX 50 series desktop GPUs anytime soon. Rumour has it we could see the GeForce RTX 5080 first at CES, followed by the RTX 5090 and others at a later date. Plus, there's no word about when their laptop versions could surface. Golden Pig Upgrade, a well-known Weibo leaker, has now shed some light on the mobile GeForce RTX 5060 variant.

Apparently, all GeForce RTX 50 laptop cards will launch with GDDR7 VRAM. This gives credence to an earlier leak which said the same. Plus, the GeForce RTX 5060's TDP will now cap out at 115 Watts instead of 140 Watts found on last-gen models.

Whether or not it will remain uniform in all RTX 5060 SKUs remain to be seen. If so, it will greatly help reduce confusion around Nvidia's laptops GPUs, as TDP often determines how a card performs instead of its model number.

Unfortunately, the GeForce RTX 5060 laptop variant is rumoured to offer a paltry 8 GB of video memory, effectively forcing you to rely on DLSS, Frame Generation and other AI-powered upscaling tech to play games at any meaningful resolution/framerate. Interestingly, even the RTX 5050 will get the same amount, while the GeForce RTX 5070 could offer up to 12 GB.

The above is the detailed content of Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 laptop variant could max out at 115 Watts. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
