Of course, for some time the models will be available from retailers, since there are some stocks in warehouses now, but by the summer, the old stocks will probably run out.<\/p>\n<p>The problem with this solution is that now there are simply no video cards on the market that could replace the GTX 1660 Super, GTX 1650 and GTX 1630.

Currently, the above models occupy almost 9% of all graphics accelerators registered in November on the Steam platform, that is, every tenth gamer in the world owns a video card that is being discontinued.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_176536\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-176536\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-176536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Nvidia-is-probably-actively-preparing-the-market-before-the-launch-of-the-RTX-4050.-Peoples-video-cards-are-becoming-history.jpg\" alt=\"Nvidia is probably actively preparing the market before the launch of the RTX 4050.

Most likely, NVIDIA\u2019s tactics are to remove really popular video cards from the affordable segment from sale, and then introduce the RTX 4050 or something even more affordable to the market, because in this case, gamers will simply be forced to buy a new product &#8211; there will be no alternatives. True, so far all this is just a rumor, because the manufacturer itself has not officially confirmed any news about the completion of production.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, December 14, the information publication ITHome, citing its anonymous sources, reported that NVIDIA plans to completely stop production of GTX 16 series video cards in the near future.
