Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 and RTX 5060 series GPUs leaks, via renowned industry insider Kopite, reveal minimal changes across the board, especially in the VRAM department. Earlier today, the leaker spilled the beans surrounding Nvidia's upcoming budget GPU offerings in a series of tweets. From the looks of it, after three long years we're finally getting another 50-class GPU from Nvidia, but there isn't much to show for it.
As shown by the Steam Hardware Survey, Nvidia's 60-class GPUs are extremely popular among gamers, with flagship-grade SKUs nowhere in sight. While it's hard to estimate how much Nvidia rakes in from the budget segment, it undoubtedly plays a key role in shaping mind share and consumer sentiment. The cheapest GPU in the top-five list goes for $300. This speaks volumes about how much the average user is willing to spend on their graphics card.
