NVIDIA RTX 5050 with 9GB GDDR7 memory to launch around Computex

Welp, least its not 8GB

It's going to drop down to a 96bit bus from 128bit.
So if memory speed stays the same, we would be looking at 240GB/s of bandwidth.

If nVidia pushes for faster memory, it could make some of that 80GB/s of bandwidth back... But overclocking headroom will be lower.

I think I would personally opt for the 8GB model if I was choosing that class of GPU.

This is likely to save memory chips for A.I/Data centers, 3 chips is easier than 4 to sell to the budget segment.

The article of this rumor/leak states that it will jump from GDDR6 to GDDR7, the only kind of memory chips with 3GB products, and will jump from 20 to 28 Gbps and a bandwidth that will go from 320 to 336GB/s.

Thanks for the answer to my comment.
(Thanks as well to you, Jizz)
