NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 to Feature 512-Bit Memory Interface Width: Sources

[Tsing]

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 is expected to have a much wider memory interface than the GeForce RTX 4090. This is according to hardware tipster kopite7kimi, who has been told by their sources that NVIDIA's next flagship gaming GPU will have a 512-bit memory interface—128 bits higher than what the GeForce RTX 4090 is currently working with. Some have pointed out that this sort of specification hasn't been seen since ancient GeForce releases, such as the GeForce GTX 280, which launched way back in June 2008. kopite7kimi also claimed today that the GeForce RTX 4090 Ti has been canceled, although more GeForce RTX 4070 and 4060 models are said to be coming.

This makes me wonder at the needed/desired/planned bandwidth the gpu needs. Is some new feature on the way? Or just improvements to the existing ones?

I'm hoping for new chipsers with ipc improvements and not just new software tweaks. Efficiency would be nice too.

maybe for GDDR7?
