Ever since the advent of DLSS and NVIDIA\u2019s explosive growth in the AI sector, it has been making fewer and fewer GPUs and focusing more on making AI chips for businesses who need all that processing power. From a business standpoint, it makes sense. AI is big money, and NVIDIA, like any company, needs and wants to make money. Here\u2019s the thing: it can easily make plenty of money with gaming GPUs. It sits at the top in this segment. But it would appear that gaming GPUs are no longer sufficient for NVIDIA in terms of profit.<\/p>\n<p>NVIDIA to reduce RTX 50-series GPU production by as much as 30%<\/p>\n<p>If this is true and NVIDIA is planning to reduce its GPU production, then this is a real shame for gamers. The situation with getting a new GPU is already dire for several reasons. Not the least of which is the cost. Throw the ludicrous markups from scalpers into the mix, layer on some melted power connector cables, and top it with a fresh dusting of already low stock, and you have yourself a real recipe for disaster. It\u2019s a situation that looks like a burnt meal because it was left in the oven too long, and tastes just as bad.<\/p>\n<p>It would appear that the situation is going to get worse. According to a post on Board Channels (via Gazlog and Wccftech), NVIDIA is going to reduce its RTX 50-series GPU production by as little as 20% and as much as 30%. This will lower the stock even more and make it more challenging to find a GPU. In a market where stock is already hard to come by, and sites like eBay and other merchant websites that allow reselling are saturated with GPUs that cost hundreds or thousands more than MSRP.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for this reduction hasn\u2019t been confirmed<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that there is no confirmation about this reduction. Nor is there a confirmation of the reason for it. However, as Wccftech notes, NVIDIA\u2019s focus on building more AI chips is a pretty likely reason. For NVIDIA, AI chips are where the majority of the money is these days. Unfortunately, this means gamers become the afterthought. Though, realistically, gamers have been the afterthought for a few years now. NVIDIA will certainly try to convince consumers otherwise. Going so far as to try and manipulate reviews on graphics cards by threatening to remove access from the press. Not to mention its continued campaign of selling a performance increase that isn\u2019t entirely there, as most of that increase is AI-generated and not based on the hardware improvements.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also worth noting that this development on reduced production comes just a few months after NVIDIA was reportedly going to \u201cmassively increase RTX 5090 GPU supply.\u201d In the end, it seems gamers get the short end of the stick.
