NVIDIA clarified that Dynamic Multi Frame Generation is exclusive to the RTX 50-series, and detailed how the 240 FPS mode and Frame Generation work independently of DLSS Super Resolution, with user-controlled settings for target FPS and no requirement for 2nd Gen Transformer models for 6x Frame Generation.
The Asus ROG Strix G16 (2025) offers a balanced gaming laptop with a powerful Ryzen 9 9955HX3D processor and RTX 5070 Ti graphics, featuring a 16-inch 240Hz display, solid build quality, and good performance, though it lacks OLED and has some port and battery life limitations.
Nvidia plans to cut RTX 50 GPU production by up to 40% in 2026 due to global memory shortages, primarily affecting midrange models, which may impact PC builds and market prices, while possibly paving the way for a future RTX 50 Super refresh.
Select Asus Prime RTX 50 series graphics cards have dropped to or below their original launch prices on Amazon, with the RTX 5070 even discounted below MSRP, making it a good time to upgrade from older GPUs, though future pricing stability is uncertain.
Early Prime Day deals offer significant discounts on gaming laptops with RTX 50-series GPUs, including models from Acer, HP, and Alienware, with prices dropping by hundreds of dollars just in time for the 4th of July sales event.
An Inno3D representative inadvertently revealed that NVIDIA's RTX 50 series GPUs, including the RTX 5090, are expected to be officially announced at CES 2025. During a Black Friday livestream, she initially mentioned the 5090 would be available in three weeks, likely referring to Inno3D receiving the GPUs for preparation. NVIDIA is anticipated to launch the RTX 5090, 5090D, and 5080 at CES, with the 5070 Ti and 5070 following a month later, and the 60-series cards in Q1 2025.
Auras Technology, a supplier of cooling components, claims that Nvidia's upcoming RTX 50-series GPUs will dominate the market starting in December, although a January 2025 launch is more likely. The GPUs, codenamed Blackwell, are expected to require robust cooling solutions due to their high power consumption. Auras anticipates significant growth in demand for its cooling products across PC, GPU, and server markets, with plans to expand manufacturing in Mexico. Nvidia's server-related revenue is also projected to grow significantly due to increased sales of AI server cooling systems.
Rumors suggest that Nvidia's upcoming RTX 50-series "Blackwell" GPUs, expected to launch in late 2024 or early 2025, will be based on the GB202 and GB203 GPUs, with the former being the flagship version. These GPUs may feature a 512-bit memory interface and 28Gbps GDDR7 memory, potentially offering a significant performance boost. However, details about multi-chip packaging and memory bus widths remain uncertain, and as with all rumors, these specifications should be taken with caution.
