Power supply maker Seasonic has inadvertently added fresh fuel to speculation about a future Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 Super series, listing three unannounced graphics cards in its online wattage calculator. The entries, which detail peak power consumption figures for the RTX 5080 Super, RTX 5070 Ti Super, and RTX 5070 Super, point toward a lineup that could break cover around CES 2027, though Nvidia itself has given no indication such products are in development.
Ampere appetite climbs across the Super stack
According to the Seasonic data, the flagship RTX 5080 Super is rated for a peak draw of approximately 415 Watts. That represents a 55 Watt increase over the standard RTX 5080’s 360 Watt envelope and sits remarkably close to an earlier leak that forecast a 420 Watt figure. It remains unclear whether the card will adopt the 12VHPWR power connector, but a connector of that class appears probable given the higher electrical load. The same listing indicates the RTX 5080 Super would ship with a fully enabled GB203 GPU featuring 10,752 CUDA cores and 24 GB of GDDR7 video memory.
Moving down the stack, the RTX 5070 Ti Super appears with a peak power draw of 350 Watts, up from 300 Watts on the existing RTX 5070 Ti, while the RTX 5070 Super is listed at 275 Watts, compared to 250 Watts for the non-Super variant. Both models are expected to carry substantial memory upgrades.
A potential memory leap for consumer GPUs
Memory configurations stand out as a key differentiator. The RTX 5070 Ti Super is tipped to offer 24 GB of GDDR7 VRAM, matching the RTX 5080 Super and doubling the capacity of the current RTX 5070 Ti. Meanwhile, the RTX 5070 Super is listed with 18 GB, likely achieved via six 3 GB modules. If accurate, that would make it one of the first consumer graphics cards to reach 18 GB of video memory, marking a notable step beyond the 12 GB and 16 GB tiers that have long dominated the mid-to-high-end market.
Uncertainty amid Nvidia’s shifting priorities
As with any pre-release hardware listing, some caution is warranted. Seasonic’s calculator may reflect placeholder specifications or educated estimates rather than final product definitions. Still, the alignment with earlier leaks lends the figures a degree of credibility. Nvidia has not publicly acknowledged a Super refresh for the Blackwell generation, and the company’s growing emphasis on data-center AI accelerators could influence the timing and prominence of any consumer GPU unveiling.
Should the RTX 50 Super cards materialize, the combination of higher power ceilings and expanded memory pools is likely to push pricing upward. For users who can absorb the cost, the added VRAM would offer meaningful headroom for high-resolution gaming, content creation, and memory-intensive workloads.
