Super variants of the RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5070 have cropped up in Seasonic's PSU calculator, suggesting we may see Nvidia's long-lost GPUs yet

If you thought Nvidia's RTX 50-series Super cards were completely MIA at this point, think again. Seasonic's online PSU calculator tool has listed the RTX 5080 Super, RTX 5070 Ti Super, and RTX 5070 Super among its entries, with increased wattages ranging from an extra 10 to 17% depending on the card.

Granted, it's not exactly much to go on. But the individual listings for the various cards adds more credence to the idea we may eventually see Nvidia's fabled Super variants at some point in the future (via Videocardz).

In terms of individual wattages, the RTX 5070 Super is listed with a 275 W TGP, 25 W more than the non-Super card's 250 W spec. The RTX 5070 Ti Super has a listed TGP of 350 W, a 50 W increase, while the RTX 5080 Super is given a 415 W figure, 55 W more than the standard RTX 5080.

Which all seems fairly reasonable. The long-mooted RTX 50-series Super range is expected to be made up of several of the existing RTX 50-series GPUs with increased clock speeds and VRAM loadouts, which would explain the higher power allocations.

That being said, I would imagine the specifics of the extra wattage bumps are likely to be guesses, as Nvidia has been tight-lipped regarding the RTX 50-series Super refresh to date—although they do align with some of Kopite7kimi's earlier predictions. There's a good chance that all of the specifications for these RTX Blackwell updates have been known inside Nvidia for a good long while now, and it's not unreasonable to expect those details to have leaked out.

Ever since the memory crisis began to bite (and GPUs continued to increase in price beyond their MSRPs), rumours and speculation around the RTX 50-series Super cards has gradually slowed to a drip, although that seems to be on the turn.

Prominent tech leaker @Zed__Wang suggested last month that the RTX 50-series Super cards were "back on track," alongside a rumour that a 12 GB RTX 5060 was also now on the menu, perhaps under the name RTX 5060 Super.

Given the cadence of the tech launch calendar, I suspect we'd be looking at a potential CES 2027 launch for Nvidia's long-lost 50-series Super models, as the green team has likely been sitting on them for quite some time. And with the RTX 60-series on the way at some point, it'll want the cards on the market for a decent amount of time before they're superseded by the next generation.

The question is, with what are likely to be fairly marginal performance increases, will gamers want them? Especially as they're probably going to cost a decent chunk more than the regular RTX 50-series GPUs proper, which aren't exactly cheap at this point.

It's all still up in the air, but signs are starting to suggest that we'll eventually find out.
