Rumors Suggest NVIDIA RTX 50 SUPER Series Launch Window from March to May 2026

Recent discussions in the tech community suggest that NVIDIA’s highly anticipated GeForce RTX 50 Super series may be unveiled in the early to mid 2026 timeframe. Reports indicate a potential launch window extending from late Q1 to early Q2.

Release Timeline for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 SUPER Cards

Despite initial expectations for a debut during CES 2026 in January, it appears NVIDIA will delay the release of the RTX 50 Super series until later in the year. According to a report from Benchlife, the expected launch period could range between March and May 2026. However, it is important to note that NVIDIA’s board partners have not yet been informed of these developments, meaning this news should be taken with some skepticism.

Moving ahead, the rumors seem to align with previous leaks regarding the existence of the Super series; for instance, sightings on the Seasonic PSU Calculator and corroborating reports from industry insiders like @Kopite7Kimi have hinted at ongoing preparations for the GPUs.

The GeForce RTX 50 Super series graphics card, which was originally expected to debut in January, is likely to be launched in the first quarter to the second quarter of 2026. It is likely to be between March – May instead of CES 2026.

The upcoming Super series is anticipated to feature enhanced memory capacities for the GeForce RTX 70 and 80-class GPUs, specifically the RTX 5070, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5080 models. While speculation exists about a potential RTX 5060 Super variant, it is crucial to note that the 60-class models are in greater need of increased VRAM compared to their higher-tier counterparts. The RTX 5090 already boasts a substantial 32 GB of VRAM, making smaller GDDR7 modules less practical for this line.

Recent leaks have included details about the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Super and RTX 5070 Super appearing on the Seasonic PSU Calculator. These models are expected to feature a higher thermal design power (TDP) and will likely provide approximately 50% more VRAM than their non-Super versions: the RTX 5070 Super is projected to come with 18 GB, while the RTX 5070 Ti Super might include up to 24 GB of VRAM.
