Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop vs Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop
► remove from comparisonThe Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop is a mobile graphics card from the Blackwell family for laptops, which was presented at CES 2025 and is expected to be commercially available in April 2025.
The GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile uses the GB203 chip and utilizes 10,496 shaders / CUDA cores of the maximum 10,752 that the chip has. This makes the RTX 5090 Laptop more similar to the RTX 5080 desktop variant (same chip) than the Desktop RTX 5090 with 20,760 cores and higher clock rates.
As a novelty, Blackwell offers support for Multi Frame Generation (MFG) with DLSS4 thanks to the 5th generation of Tensor cores.
The GB203 chip is manufactured at TSMC in the 4N (4nm) process.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop
► remove from comparisonThe Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop is a high-end notebook graphics card that was presented at CES 2025 and will go on sale in April 2025. It uses the GB203 Blackwell chip and offers 8,192 of the chip's 10,752 cores. The graphics memory used is 16 GB GDDR7, which is connected via a 256-bit memory bus (896 GB/s maximum bandwidth).
A new feature of the Blackwell architecture is support for multi-frame generation (MFG) in DLSS4.
The GB203 is manufactured at TSMC using the 4N FinFET process (4nm or 5nm). Currently, much of the data is still based on the specifications at Techpowerup.
