Nvidia’s RTX 5000 series announcement could be closer than you think, as a reliable leak suggests the reveal will happen soon
- A new leak hints at an RTX 5000 series reveal sooner than expected
- Previous leaks showed the possible specifications of the RTX 5090
- The leaked price of the RTX 5090 could be accurate based on rumors
There has been a plethora of rumors and leaks about the upcoming reveal of Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5000 series, but according to a reliable leaker, it could be much closer than expected.
Spotted from WccftechKopite7kimi on X, hinted at Team Green’s inevitable announcement in a post stating ‘We will meet GeForce or Blackwell soon’ – the user has accurately revealed some specifications of the RTX 4080 (and the RTX 5090 which has not been officially confirmed), suggesting that an announcement or teaser could be made before the end of the month can come. year.
We know that Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang will be giving a CES 2025 keynote, which is a big indication of the GPU series reveal – this could mean Kopite7kimi is referring to the CES 2025 event or an incoming teaser from Team Green. Either way, we won’t have to wait long to see the RTX 5000 series unveiled, with CES in January.
Is the ‘leaked’ price of the RTX 5090 legit?
There’s no official confirmation from Nvidia about any of the RTX 5000 GPUs, nor their specs or prices, but if the leaked specs for the flagship GPU (the rumored RTX 5090) are anything to go by, we could indeed see a price tag of $2,500. Considering the price behind the RTX 4090 ($1,599 / £1,499 / AU$2,959 at MSRP) at launch, it’s not really a surprise to see rumors of a big price increase.
The RTX 5090 is rumored to use 32GB of VRAM, a significant jump from its predecessor’s 24GB. Team Green’s new Blackwell architecture will see the new GPUs powered by AI, with DLSS and Frame Generation expected to play a bigger role in this release. If Nvidia makes the successor to DLSS 3 exclusive to the new GPU series (which we hope won’t happen), expect demand to skyrocket.
Scalping with Nvidia’s GPUs has been a major problem, especially during COVID-19 – the rumored $2,500 price point could make this much worse, but we hope this isn’t the case once the new range launches.
