Nvidia reportedly stops mass production of two RTX 4000 cards

Possibly to focus on the SUPER variants.

It doesn’t feel that long ago since Nvidia launched its RTX 4000 “Ada Lovelace” range. In fact, the 4090 only came out last October. However, there’s a chance that Team Green may be halting production of two of its products.

That’s according to a post on Board Channels (as spotted by Videocardz), which states that Nvidia has allegedly “discontinued” the RTX 4070 Ti and RTX 4080. The information goes on to say that the “last distribution of goods in the 2023Q4 quarter has ended.”

While the rumor has not been confirmed, one reason behind this could be so Nvidia can concentrate on newer models in the 4000 range. This could be in relation to the alleged RTX 4080 SUPER as well as a potential 4070 Ti SUPER.

Something could be lost in translation

As the report from Videocardz notes, there’s no real way to verify whether this information is 100% accurate or not. There may be some miscommunication going on here. It’s possible that what’s being said is referring to a temporary hold on mass production of the RTX cards, as opposed to fully discontinuing the SKUs.

As always with these things, it’s best to temper any immediate judgements you may have. Nvidia will hopefully come forward with official word on what’s true and what isn’t.

This current generation of graphics cards is only a year old (or just over) so it probably wouldn’t make sense for a tech firm to completely discontinue products. More stock may be put into some SUPER variants, but it doesn’t seem likely that Nvidia would cease production of two of its graphics cards at this point.
