The RTX 5070 and RTX 5060 are probably postponed because Nvidia does not come after production.
The RTX 5070 and the associated TI version are scheduled to come onto the market in the current February; The RTX 5060 (Ti) are targeted for March 2025 – according to at least rumors, the Nvidia plan is to the respective launch.
Apparently you have to prepare for these plans to be thrown over the pile again. At least the renowned claims this Tech analyst Ming-Chi Kuo on X. The launch of Nvidia's mid-range GPU is to be pushed back for one month to provide the supply chain a “breathing space”.
New release date for RTX 5060 (TI) and RTX 5070 (Ti)?
- As a result, the new release period of the RTX 5070 (Ti) was pushed to the beginning of March. So far, the assumption was that the publication will take place on February 20.
- So far, the RTX 5060 (Ti) has only existed as a plan. According to KUO, the release is placed on April.

Foundation is the medieval building game of my dreams
From a market -related point of view, the shift makes sense: AMD plans in March with a release of the Radeon RX 9070 (XT), which in turn has been doing a hide -and -seek game for weeks.
Since the new RDNA 4 graphics cards want to measure themselves particularly in the middle class with Nvidia, the RTX-5070 GPUs could be a little of the “headlights”, such as wccftech on this topic means.
According to KUO, the reasons behind the alleged release delay are much more banal: NVIDIA does not come behind with the production of the graphics cards in the number required.
Already around the flagship in the form of the RTX 5090 it was globally observed that hardly any offers were available. Before the release, reports appeared, among other things, that retailers in Europey have an extremely limited amount of blackwell GPUs available.
A Further X users explain in this contextthat the entire market in Taiwan was only assigned 100 units of the RTX 5090; The RTX 5080 was at least available for purchase in the entire country.
Nvidia itself warned of a possible GPU shortage last year. The company also expressed the same warning shortly before the actual release of the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 – Nvidia seems to be right with its warnings to the dismay of all those interested in buying.
The same scenario would also stand up for RTX 5060/5070 if the original launch plan is retained, Kuo finds: “Limited availability means that these two cards will be sold out immediately, even if the production is on schedule”.
