The GeForce RTX 5090, a new flagship GPU for gamers based on NVIDIA’s new “Blackwell” architecture, will feature 32 GB of GDDR7 memory, according to the remnants of several updates on the official ZOTAC website that have been cached by popular search engines that include Bing and Google. This is 8 GB higher than what the GeForce RTX 4090 (GDDR6X), NVIDIA’s current flagship, has been working with since its launch in October 2022. Additional captures suggest that a GeForce RTX 5090D, RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5070 will also be announced by NVIDIA.

Titan and prices. Yep, one day it'll return for a whole new generation to complain about not knowing that it broke the $1K barrier long before any x80 or x90 did.
On the plus side, this seems to confirm the 32 GB spec, but I'm still not sure if it's 512-bit or 384-bit.
Is 32 GB of VRAM even needed? Genuinely asking since I have no experience with 4K gaming or what kind of VRAM is used. Just that on cards like the 7900XTX was coming no where near using 24 GB.
I agree, I think 32 GB is way overkill. I've maxed things well beyond native just to see 24 GB get used on my 4090 but that usually becomes a slideshow. If 8K was really a thing I guess it could be.
NV is more than likely trying to target users with a card that looks budget friendly compared to a QUADRO and can be used for both gaming and productivity/AI stuff.
This right here, and is the exact reason I'm looking at them.
