NVIDIA is expected to launch at least four GeForce RTX 50 “Blackwell” gaming GPUs in early 2025, which will be followed by mainstream launches.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and 5070 to join RTX 5090 and 5080 for launch in Q1 2025, but mainstream RTX 50 “Blackwell” variants will follow later
Various leaks and rumors have been surfacing for the past few days that are revealing crucial information about the upcoming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 “Blackwell” gaming GPUs. The latest info relates to the launch of these GPUs and while we expect NVIDIA to come up with at least RTX 5090 and 5080 in the initial batch, there are two more GPUs it may bring forward in the same time frame.
GeForce RTX 5090 – Q1; GeForce RTX 5090
D – Q1; GeForce RTX 5080 – Q1; GeForce RTX 5070 Ti – Q1; GeForce RTX 5070 – Q1; GeForce RTX 5060 Ti – TBC; GeForce RTX 5060 – TBC;
As reported by Benchlife, NVIDIA may launch both GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and 5070 GPUs just after the enthusiast-grade RTX 5090 and RTX 5080. The launch date is falling in the first quarter of 2025, which signals that CES might be the perfect time for the company to showcase its flagship products (RTX 5090 and 5080) for desktop gamers.
However, both NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 may be revealed a month later, i.e., in February 2025. Up until now, it was rumored that the RTX 5070 would be the only 70-class card to get a release in Q1 2025, but it seems like the 5070 Ti will join it as well. In a nutshell, NVIDIA will take all four cards in the same quarter.
Later on, the company is expected to reveal the 60-class card, possibly both RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060, only four months later. This means a May 2025 launch, but not many sources have confirmed this report. Nonetheless, the initial launch might reveal most things, including the release of slower cards and their specifications.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is going to be the third-fastest GPU in the series, featuring 8960 Cuda Cores, 16 GB GDDR7 memory, and a TGP of 300W. Benchlife says that even though some reports have confirmed the TGP to be 300W, one of NVIDIA’s AIB partners has confirmed the TGP to be 350W. The RTX 5070 will have a 250W TGP, 6400 Cuda Cores, and a 12 GB GDDR7 VRAM.
As far as the RTX 5060 Ti and 5060 are considered, nothing substantial has been leaked. We will keep you updated as soon as we find more reliable reports about the specs and launch of these GPUs as well.
