Les cartes NVIDIA GeForce RTX série 40 entreront en production le mois prochain, Partenaires pour recevoir les premières cartes

Amidst all the news of NVIDIA going slow with its GeForce RTX 40-series "Ada Lovelace" launch cycle to allow the market to absorb inventories of current-gen cards as demand from crypto-currency miners has crashed; and amidst related news that NVIDIA has delayed the production ramp of these GPUs with foundry-partner TSMC by at least a quarter (3 months), we’re getting reports that production of these cards are sticking to the original launch timeline. This need not be a contradictory report, as it could be a case of NVIDIA moving forward with a limited production run in preparation to a launch.

Tech publication PRO Hi-Tech reports that one of their contacts among NVIDIA add-in-card (AIC) partners told them, that the AIC could receive the first RTX 40-series cards from NVIDIA "in less than a month" (mid/late August). This roughly aligns with the product development timeline reported by Igor’s Lab, which put the final stages of hardware development by July 2022, with production validation testing in August, with video-BIOS source release, and start of mass-production toward the end of August. This would mean that prototypes of the cards are already in the hands of the AICs, and August could see them receive close-to-final hardware while they await the release of a working BIOS. With mass-production commencing toward the end of August or September, product launches could commence by Q4-2022.
