AMD’s next-gen laptop GPU may rival Nvidia’s RTX 5090

AMD hasn’t had much of a presence in any of the best gaming laptops — at least not in the graphics department. However, according to a new leak from Golden Pig Upgrade Pack on Bilibili, AMD isn’t giving up on its laptop GPUs, and is in fact readying four discrete graphics cards made for laptops. The top configuration may actually rival one of Nvidia’s next-gen top GPUs, but that doesn’t mean it’ll be equally good.

The leaker shared a slide detailing the four laptop GPUs AMD is said to be planning to release in its upcoming RDNA 4 lineup. Although it doesn’t reveal the actual names of the graphics cards, it does show the chip names, as well as power consumption ranges and memory configurations.

The flagship card, dubbed R25M-E6 (the M tells us that this is indeed a laptop GPU) is said to come with a power range of 80 to 175 watts, combined with 16GB of VRAM across a 256-bit memory bus. This is where it might rival Nvidia’s RTX 5090, as the Nvidia RTX 50-series flagship is said to feature 16GB of memory in its laptop configuration, too. However, newer leaks place it at 24GB of VRAM thanks to the use of newer memory modules, so this could still change.

The next GPU in the stack is the R25M-P6, and it sports a total board power (TBP) of 80 to 175 watts, as well as 12GB of VRAM across a 192-bit memory bus. Then, we’ve got the lower-end cards, the R25M-P6 and the R25M-P4, equipped with 8GB VRAM, a 128-bit bus, and TBPs in the 75W to 150W and 50W to 130W range.
