Nvidia’s RTX 50-series Super refresh is delayed, and the RTX 60-series might miss 2027
TL;DR
Nvidia delays its RTX 50 Super refresh indefinitely – the cards were expected at CES 2026 in January, but managers decided against it in December.
Key Points
- Reason: Nvidia prioritizes AI chips due to limited RAM supply and is cutting production of the current RTX 50-series, which is already sold out everywhere.
- The RTX 60-series might skip 2027 entirely – Nvidia's focus is on data centers, which generated $51.2 billion in revenue last quarter.
Nauti's Take
Nvidia is showing brutally where its priorities lie: AI chips bring in the big money, gaming is a side gig. Sure, it makes sense from a shareholder perspective – but it's a slap in the face for gamers.
The RTX 50-series is already scarce, and now production is being cut further. Anyone hoping GPU prices would normalize can keep dreaming.
Nvidia hasn't abandoned the gaming market, but it's no longer paying attention either.
