NVIDIA computer GPU have been detected; This mention of Blackwell mobile graphics cards is really a rarity.
WCCFTET reports that a series of Max-Q designs, more efficient GPUs in power for thinner laptops, unlike the complete flavors of laptops of robust games, for the RTX 5000 series have been (per HXL in x) In Id. PCI.

This is the official public list of identity numbers used with PCI devices, and products may appear here before they are released. That’s precisely what happened for several RTX 5000 models, from the RTX 5050 Max-Q to the flagship RTX 5090 Max-Q, in fact (some next-gen Blackwell models have also been reported).
This is the full list of Blackwell mobile GPUs complete with the chips used in these graphics cards which are in brackets at the end:
Attentive readers will notice the detail here, which is the mention of “AD108M” as a chip in the graphics cards of the new generation of laptops below the RTX 5080 level.
AD is the Lovelace range, albeit AD108M is a hitherto unknown mobile part, and so the suggestion here is that Nvidia will somehow be using an old chip (once Blackwell is launched) for the RTX 5050 to 5070 Ti Max-Q GPUs.
What do we deserve to think about exactly? I tend to think that this will have to be just a mistake. While in theory, Nvidia could integrate what will be the next-gen chips when Blackwell computer GPUs are released, the style discussed – AD108M (M stands for Mobile, in case you don’t know) – would be at the back of the stack, below AD107M, which is lately the lowest level.
So, if this is accurate, it would mean that the RTX 5070 Ti is set to use a chip that’s lower in the Lovelace pecking order than AD107M which is in the RTX 4050 mobile GPU. And that makes less than no sense at all.
All probability, this has to be some kind of error. Wccftech also sends the Tech Powerup Ad108M directory in its database, under the next generation GPUs of NVIDIA, but those entries have now been eliminated, so again, this seems to support the theory that it is only an error that has been infiltrated somehow.
Tech Powerup actually listed both AD108M and GB206M (GB being the Blackwell chip) as two GPU options, but now only GB206M remains. This should be the chip that serves as the engine for lower tier Blackwell GPUs, and maybe GB205M too, although that, notably, isn’t mentioned in these PCI IDs.
Overall, we’re treating this with a lot of skepticism, and the main point here is that it’s some other spillover that indicates that we probably have Nvidia’s next-gen computer GPU, and that beyond rumors of rumors moving on to a CES 2025 release is correct. Time will tell, and we don’t have much time to wait now, because Nvidia’s big note is January 6, where Blackwell desktop GPUs are expected (and they can potentially be very hungry) an array
