- According to reports, NVIDIA RTX 5070 is delayed for a launch in March instead of February
- There are supposedly no details of embargo on RTX 5070, but only for its RTX 5070 ti variant
- AMD RADEON RX 9000 series will also be launched in early March
In CES 2025, Nvidia made her launch plans for the RTX 5070 TI and RTX 5070 clear: both GPUs were scheduled for an February launch, but the new rumors suggest that the launch of the RTX 5070 is pushed back in March in March, in the same month as AMD plans to launch the RADEON RX 9000 series GPUs.
According to Megasizegpu in X (which is reliable for GPU leaks), Nvidia is now allegedly plans to launch the RTX 5070 in early March, letting the RTX 5070 ti launch in February. Recently, his Rival AMD finally announced the launch date of the Radeon RX 9000 series, what surprise, it is also at the beginning of March, and this could face both GPU of average rank of the Green team and Al Team Red.
The same reports come from Videcardz, who states that the details of the Nvidia embargo given to the Board members did not include any information about the RTX 5070, but details its TI variant. Taking into account how close we are from the rumored review of February 19 and 20 and launch dates for the RTX 5070 TI, it would not be too difficult to say that this rumor may be true.
We know that there has been a limited availability for RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 (both the edition of the founders and the third -party GPUs), so the reason for the supposed delay could insinuate more stock problems; For some people, this movement seems to prove that NVIDIA is dead to eliminate any traction that the RADEON RX 9000 series can win.
It feels as if Nvidia and AMD are playing mental games …
Although AMD’s new GPU line was announced in CES 2025, it was not completely known, since we could not see any details about prices or a release date.
Since then, I feel that Team Red has been waiting for his time until his rival made known and launched all his main GPU offers, hoping that the exaggeration will go out.
The RDNA 4 GPUs were recently scheduled for the beginning of March, which occurred shortly after the speculation of the NVIDIA XX60 RTX class launch in the same month, and now, this new rumor with respect to the RTX 5070 is also released In March, it feels that the green team is doubling its position of kicking its rival out of the race.
It is also worth noting that recent reports point to AMD work at a 32 GB RDNA 42 GP GPU, despite affirming that their approach is in the middle range GPUs. If you ask me, all these reports (if precise) feel that the mental games are played by both parties with the attempt from one to the other, which is excellent because competition is absolutely necessary. I just hope the Red team can deliver …
