Conflicting reports emerge around RTX 50 Super refresh

Over the past few generations, Nvidia has opted to extend the life cycle of its graphics cards with a ‘Super' branded refresh. Many have expected to see an RTX 50 Super refresh eventually but so far, rumours have been conflicting. Days after a claim was made that the mid-gen refresh would be cancelled this time around, another source has claimed that it is ‘still on the roadmap'. 

After Uniko's Hardware shared a rumour that the RTX 50 Super series might have been cancelled, MEGAsizeGPU (via VideoCardz) began claiming the exact opposite, stating that these cards are still on the way, but may not arrive until the second half of next year. If true, that would rule out any potential reveal at CES in early 2026. Previous rumours had claimed that we would see this new hardware around CES.

It is claimed that the date change may stem from availability of memory components, but we have no way of knowing for sure. MEGAsizeGPU also claimed that memory supply and demand could soon impact the 16GB version of the RTX 5060 Ti. If that is accurate, then we should see some evidence of that on the market in the coming weeks or months. So far though, the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB continues to be widely available here in the UK at its usual price point.

KitGuru says: As always, take rumours with a pinch of salt. Nvidia will make its plans clear once it is ready to do so. Anything outside of that is essentially guesswork.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
