The leaker previously thought a new generation could appear in late 2027, but now says the \"GR20x\" product is pushed to 2028. Kopite7Kimi has a historically near‑spotless record on Nvidia hardware leaks, and the claim suggests a six‑year gap before consumer GPUs move from TSMC’s 4N node to the more advanced 3N/3NP node used by Rubin accelerators.\n\nThe delay may stem from two reported factors. First, a rumored RTX 50 Super series Blackwell refresh appears to be sidelined despite being ready, allegedly because it uses denser 3 GB GDDR7 VRAM chips also found in the RTX Pro 5500 and the RTX 5090. Second, Nvidia is reportedly focusing on its data‑center and workstation business, expecting to generate $20 billion from Rubin‑based products in Q3 2027, while wafer supply from TSMC remains constrained. The RTX 5090 is already selling above $9,000, adding pressure on consumers. Nvidia has not commented on the leaker’s statements.","keyPoints":["Leaker Kopite7Kimi says RTX 60 series based on Rubin architecture may not arrive before 2028.","Nvidia is reportedly prioritizing data‑center and workstation products, expecting $20 billion from Rubin in Q3 2027.","RTX 5090 prices have risen above $9,000 amid supply constraints and delayed consumer GPU launches."],"whyItMatters":"A delayed RTX 60 launch pushes consumer GPU upgrades further out, while Nvidia's focus on data‑center chips underscores the shift toward AI workloads, affecting gamers and PC builders.","category":{"slug":"hardware","name":"Hardware & Compute","url":"https://digestai.news/category/hardware"},"entities":{"companies":["Nvidia","TSMC"],"models":["Rubin","Blackwell","Ada Lovelace"],"people":["Kopite7Kimi","Sayem Ahmed"]},"firstPublishedAt":"2026-09-21T09:52:19Z","updatedAt":"2026-09-21T09:52:19Z","sourceCount":1,"hasPrimarySource":false,"sources":[{"outlet":"Tom's Hardware","title":"Nvidia's next-gen RTX 60 GPUs might not be released until 2028, prominent leaker claims — gaming takes a back seat as company focuses on delivering data center products","url":"https://tomshardware.com/pc-components/gpus/nvidias-next-gen-rtx-60-gpus-might-not-be-released-until-2028-prominent-leaker-claims-gaming-takes-a-back-seat-as-company-focuses-on-delivering-data-center-products","publishedAt":"2026-09-21T09:52:19Z","type":"press","primary":false,"lead":true}],"sourceNotes":null,"discussions":[],"thread":null,"cite":{"text":"Digest AI, \"Nvidia's RTX 60 GPUs might not launch until 2028, leaker says\", 21 September 2026, https://digestai.news/story/nvidia-s-rtx-60-gpus-might-not-launch-until-2028-leaker-says","publisher":"Digest AI","title":"Nvidia's RTX 60 GPUs might not launch until 2028, leaker says","datePublished":"2026-09-21T09:52:19Z","url":"https://digestai.news/story/nvidia-s-rtx-60-gpus-might-not-launch-until-2028-leaker-says"},"generatedBy":"Written by Digest AI's editorial model from the linked sources; the sources are the record.","license":"Headlines, digests and key points are written by Digest AI and may be quoted with a link to the story page.
