The launch date for Nvidia's RTX 40-series graphics cards and the entry-level GTX 1630 GPU have reportedly been pushed back for unspecified reasons. If the report is accurate, this would be the second delay for the GTX 1630 in less than a month after its launch was pushed back late last month from May 31 to June 15.

As for the RTX 40-series cards, they were earlier rumored to be launched by July this year. However, more realistic reports claimed that the top-of-the-line RTX 4090 could be launched in August before the RTX 4080 and 4070 are launched in the following two months. Based on Nvidia's 'Ada Lovelace' architecture, the RTX 40-series cards will be upgrades over the RTX 30-series GPUs that form Nvidia's current graphics card lineup. The upcoming GPUs will not only compete with AMD's forthcoming RX 7000-series cards but also Intel's Arc Alchemist GPUs, which are also expected to launch later this summer.
