Things are hotting up on the graphics card front. With AMD looking to launch its RDNA 3 this October at the earliest, Nvidia has a vested interest in making sure it can outshine the competition with its Ada Lovelace.

Given these new dates, it's possible that Nvidia and AMD could begin unleashing their next-gen hardware at around the same time.
At least in this case, if a delay is happening, things
