NVIDIA reportedly postponed the launch of its GeForce RTX 50 Super graphics card refresh. The postponement stems from the high cost of GDDR7 memory chips. The delay specifically links to the price of higher-capacity 3GB GDDR7 modules. These modules are reportedly two to three times more expensive than standard 2GB chips.
NVIDIA's board partners possess the new Super GPUs, according to reports. These GPUs include models such as the RTX 5080 Super and RTX 5070 Ti Super. Partners have received instructions to put the release on hold.
This situation is a positive development for memory suppliers like Micron. It has a minor overall impact on NVIDIA. NVIDIA's data center segment remains its primary revenue driver.
