• Lenovo, LG, and Razer have leaked some laptops carrying the RTX 5060 and 5050 GPUs
• These leaks come within the type of press materials or product listings
• They again up the rumor that Nvidia will reveal these cellular graphics playing cards in a few weeks

Nvidia’s RTX 5060 desktop graphics card is regarded as touchdown very quickly – perhaps subsequent week, in actual fact – and the laptop computer spin on the GPU might not be far behind, as additional leaks have pointed to its existence, and the RTX 5050 cellular, too.

VideoCardz studies that these laptop computer graphics playing cards are anticipated to reach in two weeks, and a few pocket book makers have already issued press materials, or product listings, that by accident point out the GPUs.

The offending distributors are Lenovo, LG, and Razer, so let’s take them in that order.

As a part of an unboxing video on YouTube, Lenovo highlighted an IdeaPad Professional 5 16-inch laptop computer that’s coming later this yr as having an Nvidia RTX 5050 graphics card, with that GPU talked about within the clip’s description.

Extra just lately, LG introduced its Gram Professional laptop computer for 2025, and within the press launch revealed by way of its Taiwanese press heart, there’s additionally a point out of the RTX 5050 (not for the primary time, I ought to add).

The laptop computer maker says: “As well as, the Gram Professional 16 geared up with the Nvidia RTX 5050 discrete graphics card can also be anticipated to be obtainable for pre-order within the second quarter of this yr.”

A footnote to the discharge additionally clarifies that the RTX 5050 will come geared up with 8GB of video RAM.

Lastly, Razer’s Chinese language web site already lists the brand new Razer Blade 16 for 2025, and one of many GPU choices is the RTX 5060 cellular.

Evaluation: Hoping for the most effective, however fearing the worst (at the very least supply-wise)

Whereas each the RTX 5060 and 5050 laptop computer GPUs are supposedly coming with 8GB of video RAM onboard, there might be slower VRAM within the lesser mannequin. As VideoCardz notes, as a substitute of the newer (and far quicker) GDDR7 as seen in different Blackwell GPUs, Nvidia could swap again to GDDR6 with this lowest-end mannequin. (That’s rumored to be the case for the desktop RTX 5050, actually – and sure, the speculation is there can be a desktop spin on the graphics card this time, when there was by no means a desktop RTX 4050).

On condition that on the desktop GPU aspect of the equation, the RTX 5060 Ti is meant to be arriving subsequent week, and the RTX 5060 is predicted to be revealed too. If VideoCardz is right, Nvidia can have a separate announcement the next week for these cellular GPUs.

We will see, however with these laptop computer graphics playing cards popping up in a number of locations now – with a particular point out of Q2 availability in a single case (LG), that means a launch earlier than June 2025 – it appears a very good guess they’re nearing launch.

Quite a lot of players will likely be eager to see what sort of value level extra reasonably priced laptops utilizing the RTX 5050 GPU would possibly land at, and whether or not these will make nice finances gaming laptops (or not). Quite a lot of that can rely on the efficiency degree of the RTX 5050, in fact, and we don’t have a lot in the best way of rumored specs for this mannequin but (or the laptop computer 5060, for that matter).

Availability can also be a priority right here, provided that whereas laptops with Blackwell GPUs inside formally ‘launched’ on the finish of March, you’ll be able to’t purchase them. They had been all listed as out of inventory proper from the beginning, and though they need to grow to be obtainable all through April, it’s not clear in what sort of portions. The best way Blackwell provide has gone to date doesn’t precisely instill confidence, although.

• Newest Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti GPU rumor suggests excellent news and dangerous in relation to value
• If the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT comes with a sub-$400 price ticket, it is perhaps the best-value graphics card PC players have ever seen
• AMD might be engaged on a quicker RX 9070 Excessive graphics card
