I recently reviewed the Acer Predator Helios 16, a fantastic gaming laptop that impressed me in more ways than one, but it made me realize something about the current state of gaming laptops.

If you've been holding off on the sweet gaming laptop deals this holiday season in favor of Nvidia's upcoming "Blackwell" gaming GPUs, new leaks today indicate what those desktops and laptops might cost you.

According to sources speaking with Wccftech, Nvidia is tipped to launch its first RTX 50-series GPU in January 2025, with the RTX 5080 graphics card being the first to ship. This GPU will offer 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM, which matches previous leaks suggesting the RTX 5080 will sport 16GB of video memory.

Nvidia may reveal a DLSS 4 update to its AI upscaling suite that will help you run AI tasks and get better frames in games.

This leak asserts that the RTX 5080 will adopt 16GB of memory, which aligns with previous rumors. Likewise, the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 are rumored to sport 16GB of memory, though

The post NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5080 GPU rumored to see huge price increase appeared first on Android Headlines.

Nvidia's RTX 5090 GPU is one of the most searched-for GPUs that is not publicly announced by the company but still comes with its fair share of leaks. Some of these are simply due to the sheer scale of the product lineup it is a part of in addition to the number of AIB partners involved and the general excitement around the product.
