Rumor: Nvidia Ada Series Launch Schedule Confirmed, RTX 4090 to Be the First

The GPU battle continues on as both Nvidia and AMD prepare to leap into the next graphics hardware generation. While Intel has yet to launch its Arc desktop cards, the other two giants of the industry have already been making headway, with team green looking to unveil its Ada Lovelace sooner than expected and team red hoping to get RDNA 3 out within the next few months.

This is a little different to the launch of the current generation of cards, with the RTX 3080 coming out first and then the 3090.

With Nvidia looking to reveal the RTX 40-series this summer, possibly in July, it's very likely that the firm will make some sort of announcement soon, which may or may not confirm the details of the GPU release schedule.

Nvidia is also getting ready to launch the GTX 1650, a card that's based on the Turing architecture from the previous generation, so there's a sense that team green wishes to get as much mileage out of this current era as it can. While GPU prices are
