The Death of Nvidia GTX Series: Yes, It Has Finally Been Discontinued!
Mar. 6, 2024After nearly 19 years of several GeForce GTX graphics cards, Nvidia is now discontinuing the GTX series video cards. According to sources based in China (viaBoardChannelsforums), as mentioned by Videocardz, there is now a new roadmap for Nvidia GPU products that does not involve the old GTX 16 series.
To jog your memory, the most powerful GTX graphics card ever released was theGTX 1080 Ti. It was also one of the best graphics card releases.
Moving forward, Nvidia went on tointroduceDLSSand many features such as RTX Video HDR, Chat with RTX, and ray reconstruction which all take advantage of new architectural innovations of Nvidia GeForce RTX graphics cards.
That being said, the GTX Series will be known to be an iconic lineup of GPUs etched into the history of Nvidia GeForce. The last new GTX lineup known as GTX 16 series was released and intended for a lower price segment of the market, with the performance trailing under theRTX 2060. There was also aGTX 1660 Superthat launched with performance similar to the GTX 1660 Ti.
Nvidia GeForce GTX Will Be Phased Out Soon
Many of my personal graphics cards that I’ve owned throughout different PC builds were also part of the GeForce GTX lineup like the GTX 1660 Super, GTX 750 Ti, GTX 650, and the older GT 430. Moving forward, GTX graphics cards will be slowly phased away from the market.
This is for the better because when paying for a new laptop or desktop PC, consumers should pick a new-generation architecture rather than the outdated GTX series. The source also claimed that the “remaining inventory” is estimated to be depleted in the “next 1-3 months.”
