Nvidia's RTX 5070 Laptop GPU Gets 12GB RAM Upgrade at 71% Price Hike

Memory upgrade addresses VRAM bottlenecks but comes with steep premium amid ongoing silicon shortages

Auf einen Blick

  • Nvidia is upgrading the laptop RTX 5070 from 8GB to 12GB of GDDR7 memory, a 50% increase aimed at reducing performance bottlenecks for AAA gaming and local AI models.
  • However, the upgrade comes with a 71.5% price premium—$1,199 versus $699 for the 8GB version—due to ongoing memory shortages and silicon supplier pricing.
  • The mobile RTX 5070 uses the same GB206 silicon as the desktop RTX 5060, and the RAM remains on a 128-bit interface with 4,608 CUDA cores unchanged.
