It seems that the crisis in the cryptocurrency market will have a more significant impact on the video card market than previously thought. In addition to the sale of video cards by miners, we can also expect to postpone the release of the GeForce RTX 4000 series to a later date.
With many miners flooding the market with used GeForce RTX 3000 series graphics cards, as well as declining demand for new devices, there is an oversupply of GeForce RTX 3000 graphics cards. sales. Thus, the offer will increase even more. And in the context of the impending crisis and the lack of interest in the purchase of video cards by miners, the demand will remain low.
In such conditions, it is irrational to launch a new line of video cards on the market. It will compete with devices of the previous generation. This will affect both NVIDIA and manufacturers and retailers.
According to informed sources, in such a situation, NVIDIA is likely to postpone the release of GeForce RTX 4000 series graphics cards from October to December. At the same time, the company may announce the GeForce RTX 4090 model, but there may be problems with its actual acquisition before December. But it’s also impossible to delay the release of new products too much, so as not to transfer the initiative to AMD with its new devices based on the RDNA 3 architecture.
