Alongside the GeForce RTX 5000 series desktop graphics cards, the RTX 5000 mobile laptop GPUs are also expected to be showcased at CES next week. A Time Spy value for the GeForce RTX 5060 laptop GPU is now making the rounds online, which promises significantly better performance. But the doubts are justified.
A third more power than its predecessor?
13,821 points in the Time Spy (Graphics Score) should therefore be possible. This would be a third of points more than the editorial team has been able to achieve in the past with a GeForce RTX 4060 laptop GPU.
The result was shared by user X Huang514613 and was first published on Chinese social media platform Bilibili.
Well-known leaker contradicts
The famous leaker HXL considers the results presented to be inauthentic.
Since the leaks indicate that the RTX 5060 laptop GPU with the GB206 GPU will use a maximum of 32 shader clusters and a 128-bit wide memory interface, the performance gain compared to an RTX 4060 laptop GPU would certainly be possible – because the RTX 4060 laptop GPU uses the GA107 with only 24 shader clusters – although the laptop’s GPU RTX 5070 should also have it. Use the GB206 and therefore use a lighter version of the RTX 5060.
Don’t rank laptop GPU benchmarks without TDP
As always, one thing to keep in mind with mobile variants is that OEMs can match the graphics cards to the chassis cooling solution across a wide TDP spectrum, so the performance of a single card Mobile graphics can vary significantly from laptop to laptop. notebook.
The GeForce RTX 4060 laptop GPU can officially operate in the 35-115 Watt TDP band – plus a maximum of 25 Watts if the CPU doesn’t require that budget (Nvidia Dynamic Boost 2.0). In the editorial’s full test of the GeForce RTX 4060 laptop GPU, the result in Time Spy fluctuated between 5,400 and 10,300 points, or about 91%.
The TDP in the benchmark is not known
It is unclear what TDP the tested GeForce RTX 5060 was based on. The chart below recorded the value of 13,821 points at the current maximum of 115 watts. The hypothesis: Nvidia leaves the familiar TDP budget and the 25 watts via Dynamic Boost are not used at all in Time Spy, like its predecessor. However, value could also have been created at a different TDP level and with the inclusion of the Dynamic Boost perk. Or, as HXL claims, they’re wrong anyway.
The GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU is expected (like the RTX 4060 and 4070 Laptop GPUs before it) with 8 GB of VRAM.
