- Colorful has two new laptops of RTX 5060 games on the horizon
- Reference points have been leaked, indicating a considerable leap on the RTX 4060 portable GPU
- 8 GB of GDDR7 VRM can be sufficient for laptop and desktop GPU
We are still waiting for the NVIDIA RTX 5060 GPU to be launched, a GPU that is expected to complete the alignment of Team Green Blackwell GPU (at least, before the super models rumored). Now, we have an early vision of the portable computer version of this GPU, which could strongly indicate what the desktop counterpart has to offer.
As reported by Videocardz, the colorful Chinese portable computer manufacturer has two new Nvidia RTX 5060 gaming laptops on the road. The most important thing, the reference points have already leaked (in the photo below) for both systems; The colorful IGAME M15 Origo and the colorful P15 PRO, which also use the powerful Ultra 9 285h and Core I9-13900HX processors of Intel, respectively.
Using the API OpenCL (used in general computing applications), the IGAME M15 Origo obtained 102,564 points, while the P15 Pro reached 109,431 points. It is worth noting that there are no filtered Vulkan reference points, which is a graphic API commonly used in many triple-A games, so these scores do not give us the complete image.
However, Videocardz remarkably highlights that the GPU of the laptop RTX 5060 is approximately 18% faster than its predecessor, the RTX 4060, thanks to its GDDR7 VRM on the GDDR6 of the latter and more CPU nuclei.
There is no official confirmation of these colorful laptops or nvidia, so this escape is all we have at this time: apply salt pinching when necessary. The supposed jump on your predecessor suggests that 8GB GDDR7 can be sufficient to provide good performance: the same could be true for your desktop variant as well.
I still want the 8GB GPUs to have gone forever, but I think the GDDR7 speeds will be the difference
Now, don’t melinterpret, I still want 8GB GPU to go. Modern games, especially poorly optimized PC ports, are often older Geekbench.
With early improvements, I think 8GB of VRM is slightly more acceptable to portable budget game computers; Particularly because laptops of games with less powerful GPUs generally remain with 1080P often do not go much more than 1440p (which no longer makes sense to me).
The potential of the improved base box speeds, together with the advantage of the new resolution resolution DLSS 4 of NVIDIA and the generation of multiple frames, could make laptops RTX 5060 more attractive to budgetary players.
Naturally, the desktop GPU is expected to exceed the portable computer variant (if not, something is very bad), and these reference points tell me that RTX 5060 can go a little better than I expected. Hopefully the price of the laptop does not become too unrealistic, considering the initial price of NVIDIA of $ 1,099 for its main manufacturing partners.
