RUMOR MILL: Is the RTX 5000 Super series back on track? That's the claim being made by a prolific leaker, who says the upgraded cards will launch sometime this year. The lineup is also expected to include an RTX 5060 with 12GB that may launch under the RTX 5060 Super moniker.
The prediction comes from MEGAsizeGPU, who has a good track record when it comes to Nvidia rumors.
Reports that Nvidia is preparing the RTX 5000 Super series have been around for a long time. It was believed that the cards would address one of the biggest issues with consumer Blackwell: the less-than-pleasing amounts of VRAM in the cards. One report last year said we could see a 50% increase in VRAM compared to the standard versions.
If Nvidia was going to reveal the Super series, CES would have been the place to do it, but the company confirmed before the event that no new GPUs would be announced.
With the AI-driven memory crisis continuing to push up component prices and a lack of competition in the high-end market from AMD, it was assumed that the Super series had been delayed indefinitely.
