In summary:PCWorld reports that prominent leaker ‘Kopite7kimi’ reveals Nvidia’s RTX 6000 series graphics cards, codenamed ‘Rubin’, are expected to launch in late 2027.The upcoming RTX 6000 series will reportedly use the GR20x GPU family, with potential announcements coming in Q4 2026 or at CES 2027.Gaming enthusiasts must wait longer as Nvidia focused on DLSS 4.5 and AI gaming at CES 2026 instead of announcing new RTX cards.
Anyone who expected Nvidia to announce new graphics cards at CES 2026 left disappointed. The company unveiled some interesting stuff—like DLSS 4.5 and G-Sync Pulsar, thoughts on an AI gaming GPU, and possible plans to revive old chips to fight rising costs—but nothing as far as the next series of RTX cards.
According to a report by Wccftech, the RTX 6000 series—codenamed “Rubin”—is still a long way off, referring to statements made by a leaker named “Kopite7kimi” on social media, who previously leaked rumors about Nvidia’s products that ended up coming true. According to him, the RTX 6000 series will land in the second half of 2027.
He also claims that the RTX 6000-series graphics cards will be based on the GR20x GPU family. The GPU used for Rubin CPX is said to be called GR212 and doesn’t actually belong to the gaming division, as it isn’t intended for GeForce use.
Based on this, there will of course also be gaming graphics cards that will be part of the GeForce RTX 6000 series. How many different variants will there be at launch? Still unknown. However, the release period is definitely expected to be in the second half of 2027, so it might be announced in Q4 2026 or even at CES 2027.
What about the RTX 50 Super?
There have also been rumors of an internal postponement of the RTX 50 Super. It isn’t official yet, but the difficult situation in the hardware market is reason enough. In addition to rising prices, supply bottlenecks are also causing problems, indefinitely postponing the launch of Super cards.
Again, Nvidia and AMD are already considering whether it would make sense to return to older GPU generations in order to avoid rising prices and save on production costs.
