- Nvidia pretended allegedly the release of RTX 5000 laptops for January 2025
- The rumor claims that the original period was postponed in March (and April for lower level notebooks)
- This is apparently wrapped in the problems of production and adjustment of the fleas where the game GPUs are not a priority compared to the graphics cards of the AI
Nvidia’s stock levels for its Blackwell GeForce GPUs become a growing source of concern, and PC players’ eyebrows hoping to obtain a RTX 5000 graphics card will not be trained by news from the vineyard
This is actually on the subject of laptop GPUs, but it applies more broadly to the overall situation with the Blackwell chips of Nvidia, as we will see.
With RTX 5000 laptops, NVIDIA has already told us that RTX 5090, 5080 and 5070 TI laptops should be launched in March – with online pre -orders on February 25 – then notebooks with the RTX 5070 are not due before april
However, as Voyageocardz noticed, a report of Digitimes draws from the notebook supply chain that Nvidia originally provided for the beginning of January for the high -end Blackwell laptops, which was postponed in March. And that the half -Finish notebooks – probably making those which transported the RTX 5070 – were initially scheduled for March but were pushed to April.
Add a lot of skepticism, as always, and we did not call exactly a laptop exciting a RTX 5070 as a “lower level” by all means. Perhaps translation problems manage a little, unless the report also refers to the RTX 5060 models (but these have not yet been announced by Nvidia).
In any case, the really interesting song with this article is that the figures provide us with a reason for this apparent delay, which is unexpected by industry as a whole, namely that Nvidia has its R&D resources too far in different ways.
Basically, the large assertion is that the “debugging” (refining and shaving) necessary for the data center and the Nvidia Blackwell play products draws the business in this way, and something must give. And guess what? It is not the AI or the GPUs of heavy goods vehicles that get the end of the stick, because this is where the big money resides – these are the less profitable game graphics cards.
Or it’s theory anyway, and it seems a sufficiently credible piece of speculation.
Digitimes reports that anonymous sources of the supply chain said: “Nvidia, who has never been late [to launch a product] In the past, this situation has also met. It is probably linked to Nvidia’s complete sprint to IA servers. Even if there are differences in the processes of design and manufacturing of PC and PC chips, the allocation of the company’s resources can always affect the effectiveness of debugging new products. »»
In addition to that, the buzz further on the reasons for the laptop GPU’s delay indicates that performance is not expectations, and “screen problems after switching on the equipment” (again, be be Very cautious around potential translation problems here, and remember all of this are just rumors).
Analysis: More stock problems?
This alleged pension post of the GPU launching time is unusual for Nvidia, which generally strikes these dates (even if stock levels are not always guaranteed to be healthy, as we have seen recently with the RTX 5090 and 5080 GPUS from office, and in the past too).
Indeed, I would agree, it is unusual for Nvidia not to make an announced launch delay, and perhaps revealing, that is exactly what happened with the RTX 5070 office graphics card . This GPU and his office brother 5070 TI had been confirmed for February, then suddenly, we heard that it would now be on March 5 for the RTX 5070, with Nvidia that shines on this subject. (The RTX 5070 TI is still due in February, next week, in fact).
All of this, and various rumors about the concerns in stock for RTX 5070 and 5060 office models, fans of worries around the Blackwell game GPUs in general. And this Digitimes report also notes that “no one can guarantee whether the publication date [of RTX 5000 laptops] will be extended, ”suggesting that possible additional delay could even be in the cards.
This adds to the general destination for the launch of Blackwell so far. Rumor hawkers become a little too noisy and consistent with my taste in terms of everything you are, that’s for sure.
