If there's one thing that is a dead cert in the PC tech world, it's that in the build-up to an expected product launch, the interwebs will be full of leaks and rumours. In the case of the latter, these can be nothing more than a statement of the blindingly obvious, but occasionally, something gets dropped that's just wild. The recent claim that Nvidia will cancel its forthcoming GeForce RTX 50 Super series due to memory shortages is a prime example.
As reported by Uniko's Hardware on X, someone, somewhere, is claiming that the DDR4/DDR5 memory shortages will make the cost of 3 GB GDDR7 modules so high that Nvidia is going to cancel the refresh of RTX 50 graphics cards, which are expected to use the larger RAM chips. Oh, and the current cards will get a lot more expensive for good measure, too.
