NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPUs are reportedly set to debut at CES 2025, according to industry insider Kopite7kimi. Initially expected in Q4 2024, the release has been postponed to early 2025, signaling a significant advancement in gaming technology.
NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 ‘Blackwell’ GPUs Set for CES 2025 Launch, Delaying Q4 2024 Expectations
Kopite7kimi, an industry informant, has reported that NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPUs for gamers will be introduced at CES 2025.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPU lineup is poised to inaugurate a new era in NVIDIA's gaming dominance. Nevertheless, the anticipated release has been postponed until CES 2025. Initially, it was speculated that these GPUs would be released in Q4 2024, with the GeForce RTX 5080 being the first to be released, followed by the RTX 5090. The most recent reports suggest that the release will occur in Q1 2025, and this timeline has been revised accordingly.
Sources at Computex conveyed conflicting messages regarding the launch, with some predicting a Q4 2024 release and others indicating a Q1 2025 release. The most recent information substantiates the latter timeframe.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 and 5080 to Feature Advanced GB202 and GB203 Dies with GDDR7 Memory
According to rumors (via Wccftech), NVIDIA is expected to introduce two premier dies: the GB202 and GB203. The GeForce RTX 5090 is anticipated to be powered by the GB202, which is expected to feature a 512-bit interface and up to 192 SM units. The GB203, expected to be utilized in the RTX 5080, is purported to be half the size of the GB202. It is equipped with a 256-bit interface and 92 SM units. Both GPUs are expected to implement the most recent GDDR7 memory interface.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 GPUs were recently published on the wattage calculator webpage of PSU manufacturer Seasonic. This listing suggests that the TDPs are slightly higher, which is likely based on preliminary information. Both laptop and desktop GPUs from the Blackwell lineup will be available in 2025. The RTX 50 unveiling is a fitting venue for CES 2025, as NVIDIA's RTX 40 "SUPER" lineup was unveiled at the same event last year. NVIDIA typically introduces its desktop SKUs in Q3-Q4 and laptop SKUs in Q1.
If the reports are accurate, it is improbable that any announcements or teasers regarding the gaming lineup will be made at upcoming events such as SIGGRAPH or Gamescom. Nevertheless, AIB partners are anticipated to issue rumors regarding the forthcoming lineup. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" Gaming GPUs are expected to advance substantially in the PC graphics arena. AMD is rumored to release its Radeon RX 8000 GPUs on the RDNA 4 architecture around CES 2025.
