Computer makers are preparing budget gaming laptops with new RTX 5050 Blackwell chips. Reports show these entry-level graphics cards come with GDDR7 memory instead of the older GDDR6 type. Both LG and Lenovo have created laptops using this new graphics card with 8GB of fast memory. The faster memory should help players run games better than previous models.
LG plans to release its Gram Pro 16 laptop with a Core Ultra 7 255H processor alongside the RTX 5050. Lenovo is preparing two different models: the Legion 5 gaming laptop and the IdeaPad Pro 5i. These computers appear in online listings, though some pages remain incomplete. All evidence points to laptop makers using the newer memory technology across their products.
The desktop version might also use GDDR7 memory, but NVIDIA has not confirmed this detail. Experts believe the RTX 5050 will contain 2560 CUDA cores and use 130W of power. NVIDIA plans to launch the RTX 5060 first before releasing this budget-friendly option. More information should arrive after the company releases its mid-range graphics cards.
