You can't put 650w down a 600w connector

thanks just corrected it

 

[DavieJG]

There's also a formula linking bus width, memory chip capacity and total memory. I don't think either of these are valid configs

ah cool, i didn't know that, do you want to share your prediction instead?

There won't be a 5080ti because the die is full.

The 5090ti will be the full gb202 die and either 32gb or 48gb memory if they go for a "titan" ai type card

Thank you - ive edited the table now

As above the power is limited on a single connector so down clock and enable more silicon. You can power limit the 5090 ~100W and lose less than 10% I believe.

My 4080 is undervolted using the Afterburner curve tool and it rarely goes above 300W more like 250-280W even though the TDP is 320W.

RTX 5080 is already full die, there can't be a 12k cuda core 5080 without an entirely new chip being developed which would be pointless from a commercial point of view. I can't see them cutting down a 5090 die that far either.

There's needs to be a 24gb card somewhere in the stack

So either a 5080 gb203 with 3GB memory chips (are these available yet?) or they cripple the gb202 down to a 384bit bus like the 4090 but that seems unlikely.

 

[Ayahuasca]

5080 super or whatever is likely to just be a card with more VRAM and higher clocks considering the massive headroom in the core clock we’ve seen in 5080 overclocking videos.

There will be a similar show to what happened with the 3080 (12GB version).

This. Between the 80 and 90 this gen middle ground is 24GB.

Rumour is they'll be putting them in the RTX 6000 Blackwell; which should be launched in a month or so at GTC. Not sure when they will trickle down to consumer products.

good lord the originals only just got released

 

[Bidley]

Maybe the lack of stock on the 5090 is because they're binning chips or accumulating defective dies for the real 5080.

 

[Joxeon]

I think this will be a short lived generation without refreshes and they’ll move onto 3nm RTX60** in 12-18 months

Imagine if they decide to unlaunch the 5080, recall them from stores, change their names to 5070, and launch a real 5080.

The past few gens were done in Q4 of that year, this release was already months behind, especially if you go by the sale date being stretched to the end of January (70 now march?). So yeah it would make most sense to ignore the refresh (of the node refresh) and go for late 2026.
