According to unverified information, NVIDIA decided to reduce the production of graphics cards for the end user in favor of chips for data centers. This change in strategy will lead to a reduction in the number of cards. The situation will likely cause a shortage of cards for PC assembly and gaming in the short term. We can clearly see that NVIDIA is transferring production facilities to increase supplies of chips for enterprises to meet growing demand.
NVIDIA shifts production to data center chips while delaying consumer GPU releases
In addition, it is reported that NVIDIA is lobbying for an increase in prices for remaining accelerators. This position is interesting as it is simultaneously expressed against the backdrop of a deep crisis in the market (according to sources). NVIDIA is betting on strengthening positions by increasing prices, even though they are reducing some lines of cards for the end user.
According to the change in strategy, NVIDIA will affect a particular model. We are talking about the future RTX 6060. According to a reliable insider, the model will not be launched before 2029.
This creates a long time frame before the release. This is quite a significant delay, especially since we are talking about a card that is usually a mid-generation update. So it's a long time until the release.
In general, the information outlines a situation where the company will tighten the screws and control the silicon. The strategy of stopping some models and increasing the release time frame allows NVIDIA to control production in the most profitable areas. As a result, buyers can expect a shortage of choices and perhaps high prices.
