NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 50 Series Supply Might Increase Drastically In The Future; Team Green Might Dedicate AI Production Lines Towards Consumer GPUs

The supply of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs may improve drastically over the upcoming weeks, as Team Green might dedicate some of its AI production lines to consumer GPUs.

NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5090 Might See Higher Retail Availability In The Future, As Team Green Might Prioritize RTX 50 Production​

It seems like NVIDIA's attention towards consumer GPUs might start to increase amid the massive demand it is seeing in the markets. Since the launch of NVIDIA's RTX Blackwell GPUs, we have seen global retailers reporting tremendous demand, and not only this, but Team Green's inventory levels were said to be pretty low this time, creating a whole launch fiasco.Accordingg to MEGAsizeGPU, Team Green's RTX 50 series supply is expected to improve drastically since the firm is seeing a slowed-down demand for AI products like the Blackwell B200 GPUs.



While this might be speculation for now, it isn't false about the fact that NVIDIA's Blackwell AI products have seen a slowed down market adoption, mainly since companies are now referring to custom ASIC designs, and with the unutilized semiconductor wafers NVIDIA has on its hands, the company might try to utilize them for catering to the demand of RTX 50 series GPUs. This might be a dream come true for gamers looking to get their hands on RTX Blackwell SKUs, but for now, take this rumor with a grain of slot.

The demand is obviously there for NVIDIA's RTX 50 series GPUs, and given that the firm is slated to release mainstream GPUs such as the GeForce RTX 5070 and the GeForce RTX 5060, Team Green will see high demand in the future. Since they have been occupied catering to the AI supply chain for months now, it was imminent for NVIDIA to see a step back in consumer GPU inventory levels; however, given the reception it has seen from the markets, the wise choice would be to ramp up production numbers.

Nvidia will simply not allow supply of 50xx cards to come anywhere near exceeding demand and see big price drops.

It's not in their interest or that of their AIB partners.

NVIDIA is clearly taking an Apple approach to GPU's. They're creating artificial scarcity and riding that to sell a premium product to the ultra rich, letting the second hand market deal with demand for anyone not willing to cough up their imagined price.

I doubt they're gonna shoot themselves in the foot and suddenly flood the market with stock, deliberately devaluing their product.

Though I'd love to be wrong and see scalpers get fucked...

I cry about Xbox and hate PlayStation.
would be very funny if Nvidia implement the "high tier" pricing on their xx60 and xx70 cards in the future.

Why would demand for B200 chips be low?
Those things are most likely sold out through 2025 already.

Supply will increase because CNY is over and production ramps up again, but I am 90% sure there is exceptionally high demand for anything enterprise with AI.

The part about Nvidia "Dedicating AI Production Lines Towards Consumer GPUs" are tales from the ass not mentioned by the original source.
Supply is increasing because it was always going to increase with the initial production ramp ending. This is literally like every GPU launch ever happens.
These news are not new.

Guess I'll sell my 5090 to make £1500 profit and buy a new one when the price goes down!

Jokes aside, Nvidia having to cut back their AI chips production because of competition will eventually happen, but the idea New Company A joins the fight and have a chip as good as Nvidia's today is bullshit. There is no fucking way.

In a couple of years? Maybe. In the next 12 months? No fucking way.

I still can't understand why demand is still so high while the power connection is such a piece of engineering crap nobody should use.
Nvidia saved every cent they could on a $2000+ product. This is just embarrassing how greedy that company had become and how stupid their audience got, that buys those crappy cards

Demand isn't all that high, it's just that Nvidia released a stupidly low amount of cards to Stores. Microcenters in NYC received around 150 cards on launch in a city of 8 million people.

Jensen wasn't lying when he said nvidia is no longer a GPU company and was now an AI company.
Gaming is now a tertiary concern. After decades where gamers were the ones financing their products.
