- Nvidia is apparently reducing the production of RTX 4060, big
- This is another clue that RTX 5060 could arrive in March
- However, it is not scared if you want an RTX 4060, since they will not disappear from the shelves in the short term
Nvidia is now drastically reducing the production volume of its RTX 4060 graphics cards, if the new speculations they apparently know are correct.
The first thing that must take into account is that this comes from the Board Channel Forum in China (through Videocardz), a regular source of gossip on the events related to hardware populated by people who are close to the supply chain In Asia.
As such, the rumor refers specifically to that region, but if Nvidia is removing the supply of chips for RTX 4060 graphics cards in Asia, the same will surely happen at a global scale.
According to the publication of the Forum, as of February, so this is already underway, NVIDIA is reducing the supply of RTX 4060 chips to its manufacturing partners of graphics cards of third parties in at least 60% (compared to comparison the last quarter of 2024).
In a nutshell, that means that we could be seeing only one third of the volume of chips produced by NVIDIA and supplied to card manufacturers, which would mean an identical fall in the level of new graphics cards RTX 4060 (and 4060 TI) that They arrive at the market.
However, as always, this is just a rumor, so be careful to believe it too easily.
ANALYSIS: Even if this is correct, the movement will take time to filter
The reason why Nvidia could be running for production, to a large extent, in a popular graphics card would seem to be obvious. In summary, this is another clear indication that the RTX 5060 is imminent, with a series of rumors that suggest that this graphics card will be launched in March 2025.
Therefore, if the successor of RTX 4060 will unleashed next month, it makes sense that this current generation graphics card would begin to be introduced by the door by Nvidia from now on.
Once again, it exercises warning around the rumors for the RTX 5060 launch, but all these small pieces of the puzzle seem to fit well enough.
Does this mean that, in theory, you can not buy an RTX 4060? No, it’s not as simple as that. Even if this two -thirds cut of the production is underway at this time, it will spend a while before that impact on the graphics cards that are really sending. In addition, there will also be enough stock in warehouses and other parts of the distribution cycle, and even when all that is sold, there will still be some RTX 4060 tables.
This graphics card will still be on the shelves for some time, but it will become more rarely as this year arrives, assuming that this rumor is correct, since the RTX 5060 takes the center of attention in the GPU stage of medium -low range GPU .
I will put my hands and admit that it was skeptical that Nvidia would launch the RTX 5060 as soon as March, following the RTX 5070 so closely, but it seems more and more that this will be the case.
It is also worth noting that we have just heard another positive rumor on the issue of RTX 5060 and its wiring, with the GPU apparently do not need a 12VHPWR feeding connector (which will make the update much easier, and we enter exactly What is why is the case here, if interested).
