A new rumor states that NVIDIA is once again “back on track” to launch its long-awaited RTX 50 series “SUPER” lineup. It was once widely believed that NVIDIA would announce its RTX 50 refresh lineup at or after CES in January. After all, NVIDIA has a repeated history of launching a 2nd wave of generational products roughly a year after their initial release. While these products may have different names over the years, they’ve more recently been called “SUPER” and sometimes even “Ti SUPER”, as seen with the ridiculously long name GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, a great card by the way.

Now, all that being said, CES came and went, and there was not so much as a peep from Team Green regarding new consumer GPUs. It soon became accepted that Ramageddon, aka Rampocalypse, aka the NAND/DRAM shortage, had claimed another batch of victims, this time in the form of NVIDIA’s SUPER lineup. Now, according to well-known industry info leaker MEGAsizeGPU (via VideoCardz), the GPU manufacturer is back on track with more consumer products on the way.

If accurate, it would seem that NVIDIA is looking to release something to compete with AMD’s recently launched Radeon RX 9070 GRE, which features 12GB of GDDR6 memory. However, one could only hope that NVIDIA is paying attention to recent backlash over the pricing of the aforementioned AMD card and will release the rumored GeForce RTX 5060 SUPER at a sensible price for cash-strapped consumers. Otherwise, an RTX 5060 with 12 GB of memory could be a highly sought-after graphics card for those concerned about the limitations of having only 8 GB for future titles. It should be mentioned, though, that recent comparison testing of the Ti version showed that 8 GB VRAM is still very relevant for 2026 gaming, especially at 1080p.

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
