New filings at the EEC (Eurasian Economic Commission) suggest that Nvidia might be preparing the RTX 5060 Ti in 8GB and 16GB flavors. Thanks to Olrak at X, it appears Maxsun has registered a handful of new GPUs, including the RTX 5060 Ti iCraft and TR series, with the regulatory body. As always, take this leak with a grain of salt since we could be months away from seeing budget Blackwell GPUs on desktop.
Nvidia's use of GDDR7 with Blackwell sparked numerous questions, especially regarding higher VRAM capacities. For reference, the RTX 5090 laptop with a 256-bit interface has been outfitted with 24GB memory using denser 24Gb (3GB) memory ICs. On the contrary, the desktop RTX 5080, despite using a similar 256-bit interface, only offers 16GB, similar to its predecessor. The mid-range RTX 5070 sticks with 12GB, and it seems the budget 5060 Ti series may be split into 8GB and 16GB versions, as was the case last generation.
