According to rumors from the Chinese Board Channel forum (via Videocards), Nvidia I have decided that Stop production Of the entire GPU range GeForce GTX 16 Series By the first quarter of 2024. Santa Clara has already informed AIB Partners, Effectively closing the era of GeForce GTX solutions.
Thus, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER, 1660 Ti, 1660, 1650 Ti, 1650 SUPER and 1630 models are preparing to gradually disappear from the market, Leaving the GeForce RTX 3050 8 GB as the least powerful NVIDIA card on the market. It looks like a less expensive 6GB version of this card will arrive early next year. coincidence?
We remind you that the GeForce GTX 1600 family is built on the same family Turing architecture for the GeForce RTX 2000, but it lacks RT modules and Tensor cores to accelerate ray tracing and DLSS. Ray tracing can be enabled via software, but performance is degraded.
NVIDIA’s AIB partners will continue to sell the cards while supplies last. We can’t rule out some nice offers to speed off the scene.
In any case, The entry level range looks clearer, with increasingly outdated and underperforming cards, lacking the modern features that players demand. The market seems to be increasingly polarized between iGPUs (which are increasingly powerful) and dedicated GPUs, the latter with good performance and functionality for less than 250-300 being difficult to find.
