Nvidia Delays Release of GTX 1630
It's fairly common practice for the tech industry to delay the launch of a product, and more often than not, there's a legitimate reason.

Despite the delay, it seems as though board partners were provided with a Go To Market Kit on May 31, and the first graphics cards have already been manufactured.
On top of that, it was revealed recently that Nvidia may have also delayed the RTX 40-series. Originally, it was thought that the RTX 4090 would be
