Nvidia faces first gap in annual GeForce launches in 30 years as AI chips take priority

Nvidia is expected to break its annual gaming GPU launch streak dating back to the 1990s by not releasing a new GeForce GPU generation in 2026. Foreign media reports said the company’s strategy has shifted from gaming to AI chips, compounded by an industrywide memory shortage. Profitability also differs sharply, with Blackwell AI chips priced as high as $40,000 each versus $299 to $1,999 for gaming GPUs. AMD and Intel also face supply constraints tied to memory shortages.
