NVIDIA's next-gen GPUs based on TSMC's 3nm process node might not be coming any time soon as reported by DigiTimes.
According to the tech outlet quoting its own sources, NVIDIA is likely to push back its 3nm GPUs back until 2025. The reason for this pushback is said to be due to a slowed-down PC market and economic tensions which have gripped the globe.
NVIDIA won't be introducing any new GeForce GPUs this year and possibly even the next since they are yet to complete the transition to their brand new Ada Lovelace architecture. The GPU maker is going to unveil its mainstream parts in the coming month and we can expect slight refreshes down the road such as the RTX 4090 Ti and RTX 4080 Ti. The laptop segment can also see a refresh at the CES 2024 show floor.
The company however is reportedly stuck with lots of inventory and doesn't intend to produce lots of gaming GPUs till the supply starts moving. Recent price hikes on GeForce RTX GPUs per segment have made consumers unwilling to buy the mainstream cards as much as they did the last-gen. The existing stock of older GeForce RTX 30 series GPUs also doesn't make it easy since those cards offer better value and can be found in the used market for way lower prices.
NVIDIA estimates that it will not enter the 3nm generation until 2025.
Due to the slowdown of AMD, NVIDIA, which holds the dominant position in the GPU market, is still there. Currently, gaming GPUs use the 5/4nm family, while AI GPUs are 7nm and 5/4nm families. It is estimated that by 2025 Years will enter the 3nm generation.
