Oh no, I'm sure no one could've guessed the names...
32GB is news. It confirms either a 512 or (more likely) 256 bit bus, which would be a significant drop from the 384 bit on the 4090.
I'm sure the increased perf of G7 would fully offset that, but this means without some larger caches it will be difficult for this to be a massive performance jump from last gen.
Unless they're going 512 bit, in which case ignore all that and wow is this a monster.
More likely a 256 bit bus? Not with the monster of a card the 5090 would be. 256 bit on that massive of a card would be ridiculous. The card is set to draw 600 watts.
For the record, in case anyone cared, I audibly laughed when I read 600 watts.
