Nvidia RTX 5080 Super leak suggests a big memory upgrade to 24GB

In a nutshell: The latest leak suggests that the upcoming RTX 5080 Super could receive a significant upgrade in the memory department. If the information holds true, we're looking at a consumer graphics card featuring 24 GB of cutting-edge GDDR7 memory, 10,752 CUDA cores, and a power draw exceeding 400 watts. The RTX 5080 Super is likely to use denser 24 Gb (3 GB) GDDR7 modules, allowing Nvidia to maintain the same 256-bit memory bus as the standard RTX 5080 while fitting in 24 GB of VRAM. That's a 50 percent increase in capacity, which should be ideal for higher-resolution textures, demanding 3D workloads, and future-proofing against increasingly memory-intensive games. For additional context, the 24 GB configuration mirrors what we've already seen in the RTX 5090 Mobile GPU, which also uses these denser memory modules. And with memory clocked at 32 Gbps, the 5080 Super could reach a massive 1 TB/s of memory bandwidth – slightly faster than the vanilla 5080. GeForce RTX 5080 Super ... Read full article.
