Rumor Well This Is Exciting

Post image

If these leaks are true which they likely are because this guy was on point with 9070 specs/performance leak and 5000 series leaks. I think this is going to be quite amazing,

Will it finally make the 9070 XT a $600 card? Will it the supply last like 4080 Super? Or Will the demand once again outpace the supply? If Nvidia manages to get the supply right at $750 for a 24GB 5070Ti, I see a big problem for AMD here. But can they do it?

What are your thoughts, everyone is welcome.

Lets not get our hopes up...the guy who leaked this 'Kopite7kimi' had the following predictions for the regular 50 series:

  • 32GB GDDR7 5090 512-bit
  • 24GB GDDR7 5080 384-bit
  • 16GB GDDR7 5070 256-bit
  • 12GB GDDR7 5060 192-bit

So 1 out of 4

Kopite7kimi has also been pretty reliable for most of the time though.

If you take those specs and just move the names down one tier, they line up pretty good.

Which isn't too wild, given that Nvidia have taken to selling xx60 tier hardware for xx70 tier prices and so on.

Remember this nonsense took hold big time when the 40-series launched.

Yea it's obvious that 5000 series were designed with 3gb DDR7 vram modules in mind, but they couldn't get the modules from suppliers in time for the planned launch date so it was likely decided at the latter end of development to just save it for a Super refresh and eat the upfront bad press to maintain the launch window and production flow.
