The specs of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5050 have been leaked, confirming the few hints we posted a few days ago.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 will Feature 2560 CUDA Cores While RTX 5060 Ti will Feature 4608; More Specs Leak Out
The upcoming GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards, including the 60-class (RTX 5060 Ti) and 50-class (RTX 5050) series, have been unveiled. The GPUs will target the mainstream and entry-level markets respectively, and here is exactly what we know from today's leaks. The leak comes from one of the most accurate leakers, @kopite7kimi.
As per two of his posts on X, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti will feature the GB206-300 GPU die while the RTX 5050 will be based on the GB207-300. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is the faster 60-class variant and will feature 4608 CUDA Cores, which are roughly 6% higher than the RTX 4060 Ti. As rumored, the GPU will be available in two variants based on the VRAM capacity. One is an 8 GB and the other is a 16 GB card, both featuring the same GDDR7 memory. The 16 GB variant will be first to hit retail shelves around the end of March, while the 8 GB variants will go live in April around the RTX 5060 (Non-Ti) release.

180W— kopite7kimi (@kopite7kimi) March 9, 2025
Since the memory bus width is identical, i.e., 128-bit, all cards except the RTX 5050 will feature the same memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s, which is about 55% higher than the memory bandwidth of the RTX 4060 Ti. The GPU will use the PG152-SKU10/15 board and will feature a GB206-300-A1 GPU die. The RTX 5050 will stick to the GDDR6 standard so you can expect 20-22 Gbps speeds on that model, offering over 300 GB/s of total bandwidth.
The TDP for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is reportedly 180W, which is 20W higher than its predecessor. On the entry-level side, the GeForce RTX 5050 is about to make an entry after NVIDIA skipped the 50-class card in the RTX 40 series. The RTX 5050 will exist as a discrete GPU in the Blackwell family and will feature a PG152-SKU50 board, GB207-300-A1 die, and 2560 CUDA Cores. Last time, NVIDIA used the XX7-class die on the RTX 4060, but hopefully, NVIDIA is only using it for the RTX 5050 this time.

130W— kopite7kimi (@kopite7kimi) March 9, 2025
There are some changes to the specifications as to what we reported two days ago. The GeForce RTX 5050 was expected to feature a TDP of 135W, but Kopite says the GPU will be rated at 130W. Not much difference there, but the card is indeed bringing 8 GB of VRAM. The 16 GB variant will likely feature a TBP of 135W, which is a similar uplift as the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB model.
We don't know the launch date for the GeForce RTX 5050 but the RTX 5060 series, including both the RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti, are expected to launch in a few days, followed by the retail launch next month.
