• Nvidia’s RTX 5070 is reportedly delayed for a launch in March as an alternative of February
• There are supposedly no embargo particulars on the RTX 5070, however just for its RTX 5070 Ti variant
• AMD’s Radeon RX 9000 sequence can be set to launch in early March

At CES 2025, Nvidia made its launch plans for the RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 clear: each GPUs had been slated for a February launch – however new rumors trace on the RTX 5070’s launch being pushed again into March, in the identical month that AMD plans to launch the Radeon RX 9000 sequence GPUs.

In accordance with MEGAsizeGPU on X (which is dependable for GPU leaks), Nvidia now supposedly plans to launch the RTX 5070 in early March, leaving the RTX 5070 Ti to launch in February. Only in the near past, its rival AMD lastly introduced the Radeon RX 9000 sequence launch date, which shock, can be in early March – and this might pit each Workforce Inexperienced and Workforce Pink’s midrange GPUs up towards one another.

The identical reviews come from VideoCardz, who state that Nvidia’s embargo particulars given to board companions did not embody any info on the RTX 5070, however as an alternative particulars its Ti variant. Contemplating how shut we’re to the rumored February 19 and 20 evaluate and launch dates for the RTX 5070 Ti, it would not be too far of a stretch to say that this rumor might certainly be true.

We all know that there is been restricted availability for the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 (each Founders Version and third-party GPUs), so the rationale for the supposed delay may trace at additional inventory woes – nevertheless, for some folks, this transfer seems to show that Nvidia is lifeless set on eliminating any traction the Radeon RX 9000 sequence GPUs may acquire.

It seems like Nvidia and AMD are taking part in thoughts video games…

Whereas AMD’s new GPU lineup was introduced at CES 2025, it wasn’t totally unveiled, as we did not get to see any particulars relating to costs or a launch date.

Since then, I really feel like Workforce Pink has been biding its time till its rival unveiled and launched all of its important GPU choices, with hopes that the hype dies down.

The RDNA 4 GPUs had been just lately set for early March, which got here shortly after hypothesis of Nvidia’s RTX xx60-class launch in the identical month – and now, this new rumor relating to the RTX 5070 additionally launching in March as an alternative of February seems like Workforce Inexperienced is doubling down on its stance of kicking its rival out of the race.

It is also price noting that current reviews level in direction of AMD engaged on a 32GB RDNA 4 gaming GPU, regardless of stating its focus is on midrange GPUs. If you happen to ask me, all of those reviews (if correct) really feel like thoughts video games being performed by each events with the try and one-up each other – which is nice as a result of competitors is totally vital. I simply hope Workforce Pink can ship…
