Previously, there were different opinions about the upcoming release of Nvidia's next-generation RTX 50 series graphics cards within the year, and different revelations brought different release schedules, both saying that the RTX 5090 would be released first, and that the RTX 5080 would be released first. At present, the latest revelations have been brought to the Internet, indicating that the two may be released at the same time.

According to XpeaGPU, Nvidia will release its new flagship RTX 5090 and high-end RTX 5080 graphics cards at the same time, and then the two graphics cards may go on sale in a few weeks. This is not quite the same as the previous revelations from Kopite7kimi, who said that Nvidia intends to release and list the RTX 5080 first, although previous reports also suggest that the RTX 5090 may be the only GPU to launch this year, although these reports are currently contradictory, and it is still unclear whether these news are true.

It's not surprising that Nvidia might stagger the idea of two SKUs for release, and in 2020, NVIDIA launched the RTX 3080 two weeks before the RTX 3090, with both cards unveiled at the same time. In terms of specs, the GB203 GPU that RTX5080 is expected to carry is expected to provide about half of what the GB202 offers, with 96 SMs, compared to 192 SMs for the GB202. In addition, it has been reported that the GB203 GPU will come with 256-bit memory bit width support, while the largest Blackwell GPU will likely use 512-bit memory bit width. In addition, the leaks of the cooling module show that the maximum power consumption of the RTX 5090 may be close to 600W.
