NVIDIA doesn’t care about gamers. GPU shipments are reduced by 20%
Although the situation on the graphics card market is already bad, it will soon get worse. According to information revealed by a source known for accurate leaks, NVIDIA was supposed to reduce the supply of chips to partners by up to 15-20%. According to the law of supply and demand, such a move almost automatically means further price increase.
We won’t see any new models this year
The reason for this situation is, of course, the craze for artificial intelligence. This results not only in a shortage of DRAM memory, but also in limited production capacity for the latest lithography. Manufacturers prefer to focus on AI acceleratorswhich sell in whole containers and mean much higher profits on each piece.
As if that wasn’t enough, We won’t see new graphics cards this year. This lines up with previous rumors that NVIDIA has delayed or completely canceled the GeForce RTX 5000 SUPER series.
NVDA GPU supply to AIC has been cut down 15%-20%. The good news is that Nvidia still bundles a GPU with memory. The bad news is that there will be no new product in 2026.

Some consolation comes from the fact that, despite previous plans, Zieloni still supplies GPUs in sets with GDDR7 chips. This is especially important for companies smaller than ASUS, GIGABYTE or MSI, which would not be able to negotiate such good conditions as NVIDIA with one of the major players on the DRAM market – Samsung, SK hynix and Micron. But what good is having a selection in stores if the prices are absurdly high?
