Could this be the first picture of an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU? This picture, coupled with a specs sheet by notebook OEM Clevo, seems to suggest so, thanks to a new video by Moore's Law is Dead. The chip is noticeably more rectangular than the Ada "AD104," and is labelled N22W-ES-A1. It is an engineering sample. Cross-referencing "N22W" with the Clevo specs-sheet for a next-generation laptop mainboard, points to the possibility that the chip is indeed based on a next-gen silicon by NVIDIA. The board design has to undergo a significant change, due to the major change in the pin-map of the fiberglass substrate brought about by the switch to the new GDDR7 memory type.

The GeForce "Blackwell" generation comes in several GPU silicon sizes, and the RTX 5080 Laptop GPU is expected to be based on the "GB203" chip, which is expected to power the desktop RTX 5080 and possibly some SKUs in even the RTX 5070 series, such as the "RTX 5070 Ti." It is rumored to feature as many as 8,192 CUDA cores, and a 256-bit wide GDDR7 memory interface. NVIDIA is expected to unveil the GeForce "Blackwell" generation at CES 2025.
