It appears that we may have to wait a little longer than some had hoped for the RTX 50 Super series graphics cards, with a potential retail launch now scheduled for the first half of 2026, according to the latest reports.
According to Benchlife (via VideoCardz), the Super lineup is targeting a release window between the end of the first quarter and the beginning of the second quarter next year. A full reveal or official announcement is still expected to happen earlier, possibly around the same time as CES in January.
Lending weight to this later launch window is a detail in the BenchLife report: as of late Q3 2025, Nvidia's add-in card (AIC) partners have reportedly not yet received any official alerts about the new products. Given that board partners need a significant amount of lead time to design and produce their custom cards, a launch in the Q1/Q2 2026 timeframe appears plausible.
This refresh is expected to include at least three new SKUs: the RTX 5070 Super, RTX 5070 Ti Super, and RTX 5080 Super. The primary upgrade across the board is rumoured to be a 50% increase in VRAM capacity. This is made possible by new 24 Gbit GDDR7 memory chips, which would allow the RTX 5070 Super to ship with 18GB of memory and both the 5070 Ti Super and 5080 Super to feature 24GB.

KitGuru says: If RTX 50 Super is now 2026, then it is possible that we don't see RTX 60 until 2027-2028, assuming Nvidia sticks to its usual cadence.
