- Nvidia is jerked to cut production of RTX 5000 GPUs
- Preparation levels allegedly look at a clip of 20% or more in July
- If it is true, as the effects of this filter through we can expect price increases in September
Nvidia could plan to cut back on the production of its RTX 5000 graphics cards, according to a new rumor, which would of course mean less stock on the shelves.
The Japanese Tech -Blog Gazlog noted a chiphell post (via WCCFTECH), where he claimed this is the case and that Nvidia has already reduced the supply of its blackwell graphics cards from June.
We are told that in May 2025, the RTX 5000 supply stabilized and the stock level of the GPUs increased, with prices fell – in some cases under MSRP. Team Green has therefore apparently decided to reduce the share level from July, with the supply expected to fall by between 20% to 30% compared to June – and as mentioned, there has already been something of a production cut for June.
Of course, slimmer amounts of stock would mean that the possible ghost of the GPU prize increases is rising, but we must be very careful about the speculation sent here. Especially since it comes from Chiphell, which is not always the most reliable source – although it has delivered hardware rumors that have proven to be true in the past.
Analysis: Grab a GPU quickly?
This is a rumor I will be particularly careful to see as the theoretical decrease in production is a fierce. If this is true, it would actually mean that the prices for NVIDIA’s RTX 5000 GPUs are certainly set to rise.
Why should Nvidia plan such a movement? Well, part of the claim made here is that prices have fallen too much because the GPU share is increasing beyond the requirement out there. A further theory is that NVIDIA may want to assign chips elsewhere, namely to graphics cards to China, primarily the new version of the GeForce RTX 5090 D (the Asian variant of the Blackwell flagship). The latter sounds like a plausible enough scenario, determined.
Of course, if the production is really adjusted as this rumor suggests, the effects of it will not be felt right away, but rather in a few months. (Since there are already chips out there that are of course distributed in the long chain of events that happen when you put together graphics cards).
What this is similar to is the prospect of price increases around September time, and funnily enough Jives with other scraps from GPU Grapevine, which we have heard recently. Namely, the speculation from Moore’s law has died on YouTube, which due to various factors – regarding customs and also hardware upgrades due to the end of support for Windows 10 – graphics card price increases in the 4th quarter of 2025 (from October, in other words).
Everyone, given this fresh rumor, adds some serious heavy hints that may now be the best time to buy a GPU, especially if you look at one of NVIDIA’s RTX 5000 models. And with the most important day that is happening – and the early offers that are already available, you may actually – you may want to keep an eye on potential GPU offers therein. Any discounted graphics card may represent the cheapest prices you may see this year as Black Friday arrives late to avoid what’s in pipeline in terms of price increases, at least in theory.
