Hot off the heels of Jensen Huang's CES 2026 keynote (and the lack of any new GPU announcements), a new leak has cropped up purportedly spilling the beans on Nvidia's next-generation RTX 60 series GPUs. Famous hardware leaker kopite7kimi on X claims that Nvidia will be using the Rubin architecture RTX 60 series graphics cards, in the form of "GR20x" dies, and will be launching the new GPU lineup in the second half of 2027.
For now, Rubin is Nvidia's next-generation datacenter architecture that will succeed its current Blackwell-based products. Rubin is the beating heart of Nvidia's upcoming Vera Rubin NVL72 AI supercomputer and its Rubin CPX accelerator card. What has not been known is what architecture Nvidia will use for its next-gen gaming GPUs. If Kopite's rumor is true, then Nvidia will use the Rubin architecture rather than making an entirely new architecture strictly for its next-gen gaming cards. (It's rare for Nvidia to split architectures, but it is possible, for instance, Volta never made it to GTX or RTX gaming cards.)
