NVIDIA Might Be Cutting Down RTX 5000 GPU Stock
People on the Chiphell forum say that NVIDIA is making a fake short supply of its GeForce RTX 5000 series cards. They think there are two main reasons why this might be happening.
About the Reported Cut in Supply
People with inside info say NVIDIA is keeping the number of new RTX 5000 series GPUs low without saying why. They plan to send 30% less cards to stores than they do now. These cuts started in June.
Two Reasons for the Change
The talk points to two reasons NVIDIA may be doing this:
- Keeping Prices Up The first idea is NVIDIA wants to stop too many cards from hitting the market. With fewer cards out there, prices might stay the same and not drop.
- Looking at China's Market The second idea is that NVIDIA is turning its focus to China. This matches with their plans to drop a special RTX 5090 made just for China, called the RTX 5090D v2.
These details are just from insiders and NVIDIA hasn't confirmed it yet.
