The RTX 5050 for Desktop PCs will not really come equipped with GDDR7 modules like the rest of the RTX 50 line. The information would have been “confirmed” by Nvidia partners who will provide memories to the new GPU, according to Benchlife website.

According to the Chinese website, both Samsung and SK Hynix will provide memories for RTX 5050, which can be considered an indicative that Nvidia aims to have a large volume of plaque units. The two manufacturers would have confirmed that GDDR7 chips were not ordered for the model.

According to previous leaks, and starting from the logic of the RTX 50 series, it is likely that we will see an 8GB GDDR6 plate for the new Blackwell Family GPU of domestic GPUS. Thus, Nvidia has the opportunity to charge considerably less for the new sign, but we will only see when the product is on the shelves of stores.

NVIDIA has many GDDR6 variants to choose

The GDDR6 generation of memories has been among us for a long time, which means that there are several variants that Nvidia could opt for Desktop RTX 5050.

First of all, it is worth mentioning that we have the most modern version of these modules, which is GDDR6X. Benchlife information only confirms that it will not be GDDR7 memories, so GDDR6’s “X version” would not be out of the question.

But even without the “x” in the name, the GDDR6 modules vary from 12Gbps versions to 20Gbps options. It can make an noticeable difference in the final product depending on the choice of Nvidia.

Although not an official announcement of the companies, it is now basically confirmed that the RTX 5050 for Desktop PCs will not use GDDR7. This will be especially curious as the notebook version of the same GPU uses technology.

For Tom’s hardware staff, this discrepancy in the adopted memories can be considered an indicative that we will see a 5050 with GDDR7 for desktop PCs eventually. Even if it is a future version of the board.
