Due to RTX 40 Super launching in early 2024, we were unsure if we would see new-gen gaming GPUs from Nvidia this year, and earlier rumours did point to an early 2025 launch, rather than the usual Q3/Q4 launch window. However, new reports citing board partner sources claim that Nvidia's first RTX 50 series GPUs will arrive later this year after all.

Intel's upcoming discrete graphics architecture, Battlemage, remains shrouded in secrecy. However, that might start changing soon.
