One of the big announcements that this year’s CES has had is the arrival of new graphics models from NVIDIA, a series of components that have higher performance than the previous generation but that have not finished convincing everyone. the users. That is why there are already people who are considering how they can improve them, and for the RTX 5090 Some modders have the perfect answer which involves making a series of changes to the memory so that it can have a bandwidth that we have never seen before that would break all records.
NVIDIA’s new generation graphics cards arrive with a series of quite important changes compared to previous models, one of them and the one that stands out the most is the memory jump from using GDDR6X to GDRR7. This offers the possibility of greatly increasing the bandwidth that the new versions can reach along with a series of additional aspects such as an increase in capacity by offering more GB for each stack, something that allows the creation of models with a greater amount of VRAM with lower prices than the RTX 40.
The goal of these modders is to reach a bandwidth of 2 TB/s
NVIDIA is planning to launch its flagship GPU with some quite impressive technical characteristics that demonstrate the technological capacity that these components can offer, although the price is obviously something that will never cease to surprise us since it costs €2000 as a base. This model will have a lower clock speed than what the RTX 4090 offered, but instead will add 8 GB more VRAM while increasing the bandwidth to 1792 GB/sec, offering 77% more than what the version had. the previous generation.
But the fact that it has remained close to 1800 GB/sec has left many people wanting to know if there is any way to increase it a little more to break the barrier that reaching 2000 GB/sec would mean. That is why Brazilian modders SidNelson and Paulo Gomes have begun to look for a way to make the RTX 5090 of this jump, and everything would involve using the VRAM of the RTX 5080, since it is the only model that will be able to offer more than 32Gbpssince the NVIDIA flagship will arrive with 28 Gbps.
According to what they indicate, the fact of incorporating the VRAM modules used by the RTX 5080 could allow a configuration that, by combining the 32 GB it supports with a speed of 32 Gbps, would offer a bandwidth of 2 TB/s, something that would imply an additional 100% compared to what the RTX 4090 offered. There are still a few weeks left for us to see how this graph works in a real scenario, the performance it should offer is quite high but we know perfectly well that NVIDIA always leaves room for improvement for its graphics that modders know how to make the most of.
