By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Nvidia is reportedly discontinuing the RTX 5080 16GB graphics card, with rumors suggesting a new RTX 5080 24GB model will launch in early 2027. This updated model is expected to use the same GPU die as the current version, with the primary difference being an increase in VRAM from 16GB to 24GB. The larger VRAM capacity could make the 24GB RTX 5080 particularly attractive to AI users, potentially leading to limited availability. AI

IMPACT The increased VRAM on the rumored RTX 5080 24GB could benefit AI workloads, potentially impacting hardware choices for AI practitioners.
