NVIDIA repositions RTX 50 lineup to 8GB GPUs amid persistent memory crunch
Industry reports say NVIDIA is shifting RTX 50-series production toward the RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti 8GB cards due to a memory shortage, reducing output of 16GB variants and potentially pushing prices higher across the lineup; top-tier RTX 5090/5080 models are already trading well above MSRP, while NVIDIA hints at reviving older GPUs like the 3060 8GB to meet entry-level demand amid ongoing memory volatility, a situation unlikely to ease until memory production expands in the next few years.
