Despite the RTX 50 series debuting with newer and faster GDDR7 memory, almost every source indicates that Nvidia will stick with standard 16Gb (or 2GB) modules for these GPUs. However, according to a rumor from the renowned leaker Golden Pig Upgrade Pack, Nvidia may equip the RTX 5090 mobile with 24Gb (or 3GB) memory modules, resulting in 24GB of total video memory.
The RTX 50 series of GPUs from Nvidia codenamed "Blackwell" will be the first consumer offerings to launch with GDDR7 memory. This new type of memory offers several advantages over GDDR6 and GDDR6X, including higher speeds and improved densities. Samsung is developing 42.5 Gbps GDDR7 modules in 24Gb (3GB) flavors, expected to hit mass production soon. Word on the street is that RTX 50 mobile and desktop GPUs could be announced in parallel next week.
