Nvidia Delays Next-Gen Graphics Cards to 2028 Amid Ongoing Shortages

Nvidia's next-generation graphics cards, likely based on the Rubin architecture, have reportedly been delayed to 2028. This news comes from known Nvidia leaker Kopite7Kimi on Twitter. The delay was announced just two years out from the RTX 5090 launching at CES 2025 and a year before Nvidia would typically release its next-generation graphics cards.

The RTX 5090 has been commanding prices around $9,000, despite launching for $1,999 last year. This is not an isolated incident; every graphics card on the market is now more expensive due to ongoing shortages. Even without this factor, Nvidia would likely raise the price of its next-generation cards.

Kopite7Kimi also mentioned that they will try to minimize updates until there is definite news. The leaker's statement suggests a lack of confidence in their sources and may indicate that further details are uncertain.
