In the absence of official confirmation, everything indicates that NVIDIA will present the new family during the first week of January 2025. RTX 50, being the models RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 the first to reach the market. In recent weeks, we have published various news claiming that the company has stopped manufacturing the RTX 4090 to make room for its successor in the production line.
The latest news related to the production of the RTX 40 indicates that NVIDIA is changing its production plans for the new generation, reallocating its production lines and at the moment, only the person in charge of the production is working. AD107 GPU which is used in the RTX 4050 for laptops and the RTX 4060.
The production lines that manufacture the GPU AD102, AD103, AD104 and AD106which are used in RTX 4070, RTX 4080 and RTX 4090 have finished. In this way, once the current stock available in NVIDIA warehouses runs out, it will be impossible to buy one of these graphics cards first-hand.
This leak indicates that at the moment there is a lot of stock available for graphics cards with AD102 GPU, so it is not expected that there will be inventory problems in the short term, even more so considering that the launch of the new generation RTX 50 is practically around the corner and this will be the one that the market should have the most demand for.
It seems that NVIDIA’s idea is to keep the RTX 4060 in production, to continue offering a affordable model in the market. But, as the months go by and the launch of the RTX 5060scheduled for March or April 2025, the production line will adapt to these new model.
All the information we know about the NVIDIA RTX 40 production line comes from leaks, since the company has not published any official statement so that users who are interested in buying a new graphics card do not waste the available stock and opt for the new generation.
What do we expect from the RTX 50
As we mentioned at the beginning of this article, everything indicates that NVIDIA uses, once again, the CES framework to present the new generation of graphics cards for home use, just as it did at the beginning of this year with the RTX 4070 Ti, RTX 4070 Ti SUPER and the RTX 4080 SUPER.
The first graphics cards to be presented will be the RTX 5080 and RTX 5090, the first graphics cards on the market that will be implemented GDDR7 memory. If we pay attention to the rumors related to the RTX 5090, it will be a real beast and will have a performance almost double that of the RTX 4090, the most powerful graphics card that we can currently find on the market.
With amd Outside of the competition for the high-end graphics segment for home users, NVIDIA does not have any rival that can stand up to it (it didn’t have one until now either). The latest news related to the second generation of graphics IntelBattlemage, whose launch is rumored to be before the end of 2024, is very unlikely to release a graphics card that is on par with any model in the RTX 50 series.
