It’s basically an open secret that NVIDIA is planning to release an RTX 50 Super Series lineup, as a means to supplement the current Blackwell generation of graphics card. According to the most recent rumours and leaks, that list could end up comprising no less than three variants of existing cards.
Specifically, NVIDIA is allegedly planning on releasing an RTX 5080 Super, 5070 Ti Super, and 5070 Super. As per its own trend, these RTX 50 Series cards may also feature an increase in the amount of graphics memory they carry, as well as the number CUDA cores and increments in their TGP.
Starting with the RTX 5070 Super, the GPU is rumoured to ship out with 18GB GDDR7, 6GB more than the non-Super variant, 6,400 CUDA cores, and a 275W TGP. Then there’s the 5070 Ti Super: the card may come with 24GB GDDR7, no change to its CUDA cores, and an increased TGP of 350W.
Like the 5070 Ti Super, the RTX 5080 Super reportedly shares the same increase in graphics memory, with NVIDIA allegedly slapping 24GB GDDR7 with no change to its CUDA core count as well, but with an increased TGP of 415W. For context, the non-Super RTX 5080 has a TGP of 360W, so the increase in power consumption is expected.
Now, while we say that it’s an open secret, the fact remains that NVIDIA has not acknowledged these rumours, as is its policy. For another matter, it is unlikely that we’ll be seeing the RTX 50 Super lineup anytime soon; Blackwell just launched at the start of the year during CES 2025, and if the brand’s product cadence is to be adhered to, the RTX 50 Super Series may only hit the market by next year, or end of the year the earliest. Whatever the case, we reckon it’s going to be a while before we see anything tangible from NVIDIA.
