Those of you who read us daily already know the most important keys to the GeForce RTX 40 and are aware of everything that is happening in the graphics card market. It’s happening right now a significant arrival on the second-hand market of graphics cards that were used to mine cryptocurrencies, a problem that combines a growing supply of new models with unabated demand.

It goes without saying that in this scenario the situation is not ideal for launching a new generation of graphics cards, Rather, it is the other way around. With all this in mind, the information that is starting to emerge that points to a possible delay of the GeForce RTX 40 makes a lot of sense and we have to consider that this possible delay may also affect Radeon RX 7000the next generation of graphics cards from AMD.

The launch of GeForce RTX 40 was originally planned for the month of July. Several sources have since surfaced saying they were delayed to September, then October, and now we’re talking December, i.e. at the end of this year. Something similar happened with the Radeon RX 7000 series, although the information we saw didn’t directly cite them, so we have our doubts about what might actually happen to them.

It is important to pay attention we can talk about the delay in terms of availability, and that the GeForce RTX 40 launch date remains unchanged. If this comes true, the said generation would be introduced between September and October, but the first units would not hit the market until November or December. All the doors are open right now, so we can only wait to see what NVIDIA does.

How long could NVIDIA delay the GeForce RTX 40?

It’s a very interesting question and the truth is I think it will all depend on what AMD does. If AMD launches the Radeon RX 7000 in September, it’s likely that NVIDIA will decide to try to launch its GeForce RTX 40 as soon as possible so as not to leave Sunnyvale alone. However, it will also depend on what AMD presentsthe current availability of their new products, their performance and their price.

On the other hand, it will also matter how long it takes for the market to “digest” the stock. the accumulated amount of graphics cards and in this sense the second-hand market will play a very important role. In any case, NVIDIA has a fairly comfortable position in terms of market share, so it could easily afford a relatively “significant” delay of the GeForce RTX 40.
