Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop vs Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop
► remove from comparisonThe Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop is an upcoming Blackwell family graphics card for laptops that Team Green is very likely to unveil during CES 2025 with retail availability expected by April 2025.
Considering the 4050 Laptop has 2,560 unified shaders (CUDA cores) at its disposal, the 5050 will most most likely sport 3,072 or 3,584 shaders making most 2025 and 2024 games playable at 1080p / Medium. Nvidia might tap one of Samsung's or TSMC's 3 nm processes to make the chip but 4 nm processes are not off the table, either.
Other features of the GPU include native PCIe 5 support, DisplayPort 2.1a, 8 GB of 128-bit GDDR6 or GDDR7 VRAM and a 115 W max power target (not including Dynamic Boost - ?).
Note: All of the above is based on various leaks and speculations like this one here (VideoCardz).
