Acer Accidentally Reveals PCs with RTX 5090 and RTX 5080: VRAM Confirmed
1 min read1 month ago
Gaming PCs from Acer's Predator Orion 7000 lineup appeared briefly on the company's website, confirming key details about the upcoming Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards:
- RTX 5090 will feature 32 GB of GDDR7 VRAM.
- RTX 5080 will come equipped with 16 GB of GDDR7 VRAM.
Rumored Specs:
- RTX 5080:
- Chip: GB203-400
- CUDA cores: 10,752
- Memory bus: 256-bit
- TDP: ~400W
- RTX 5090:
- Chip: GB202-300
- CUDA cores: 21,760
- TDP: ~600W
Both GPUs are expected to make their official debut at CES 2025 in early January.
My Take:
Looks like 2025 is shaping up to be another year of crispy power bills. 32 GB VRAM is jaw-dropping but considering the wattage rumors—600W for the 5090? That’s practically a space heater with ray tracing. On the bright side, it’s exciting to see GDDR7 in action, and with CES 2025 right around the corner, we’ll finally find out how much power it takes to run Minecraft in 8K RTX Ultra Platinum Edition.
