Nvidia’s RTX 5080 was recently rumored to be getting 16GB of VRAM – speculation that did not go down well with PC gamers, as it’s an amount no better than the RTX 4080 – but fresh word from the grapevine is the next-gen graphics card could also arrive in a 24GB flavor.

A new report by a popular leaker suggests that the RTX 5080 could possibly come in two VRAM variants, but there is a catch.

NVIDIA rumored to launch GeForce RTX 5080 with 16GB of GDDR7 memory, with a beefier RTX 5080 model with 24GB GDDR7 now in the rumor mill.

Nvidia ’s GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 will be introduced at CES 2025, we’ve again been told – alongside Blackwell notebook GPUs, possibly.

Last week, the leaker known as kopite7kimi — known for his accurate predictions — revealed on X (formerly Twitter) the likely final specifications for Nvidia’s next-gen RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs.
