Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 28209, member: 2262"] Stores just leaked details about two new NVIDIA laptop chips ahead of schedule. Both PC21 and Acer Hong Kong posted information about the upcoming GeForce RTX 5060 and RTX 5050 laptop graphics cards. Acer says the RTX 5060 will ship inside new laptops around May. The listings confirm both cards come with 8 GB of the newer, faster GDDR7 memory. This surprises many tech fans because the desktop version of the RTX 5050 was expected to use older GDDR6 memory. The laptop model seems to offer better memory performance than its desktop counterpart. People should note that the RTX 5070 laptop chip also uses 8 GB of GDDR7, which means these three models mainly differ in their processing power. Anyone wanting more memory must buy a laptop with the RTX 5070 Ti, which packs 12 GB of GDDR7 on a wider 192-bit memory connection. These fancy new graphics cards carry hefty price tags. A leaked MSI VenturePro 16 laptop featuring a Core 7 240H processor, 16 GB memory, 512 GB storage drive, and the RTX 5050 costs about €1580 (roughly $1720). Even basic models from NVIDIA's new Blackwell family cost enough to make most shoppers' wallets hurt badly. The high prices affect all levels of these next-generation graphics cards. Leaked store listings have become a reliable way to learn about upcoming computer parts before official announcements. These early glimpses let us see what companies plan to release months ahead of schedule. The information helps buyers decide whether to purchase current models or wait for new technology. NVIDIA continues bringing its powerful Blackwell architecture to laptops despite the premium pricing strategy. [/QUOTE]
