According to the latest industry leaks from Overclocking, NVIDIA is secretly developing a top-tier flagship graphics card that surpasses the current RTX 5090, expected to officially debut during the back-to-school season in Q3 2026.

Multiple sources have cross-verified that this product has moved beyond the early planning stage and entered the substantive development phase at the board level.

Notably, this project is unrelated to the previously rumored RTX 50 SUPER series, which has no release plans for 2026. The new GPU will be prioritized as an independent Halo product line.

This mysterious graphics card may debut in the form of a Titan-class or RTX 5090 Ti, with specific specifications, power consumption, VRAM capacity, and core configuration yet to be disclosed. The possibility of AIB manufacturers' involvement cannot be ruled out.

Looking back, NVIDIA developed prototypes of the RTX 4090 Ti and Titan Ada during the Ada Lovelace architecture era. Although they never officially launched, the massive reference cooler design was later acknowledged by the company.

If this leak proves accurate, gamers can expect a new generation of flagship GPUs. However, given the inevitably high pricing and potential supply constraints, average consumers might only be able to admire them from afar.

Meanwhile, the market performance of the current RTX 50 series graphics cards presents an intriguing trend.

According to market tracking data, while most models stabilized or even saw slight price declines after weeks of increases in January, the mid-range RTX 5060 Ti 16GB has shown unusually strong price resilience.

Its daily median price has repeatedly exceeded 700 euros (approximately 5,757 yuan), approaching the higher-tier RTX 5070 and breaking the conventional price gap of around 100 euros.

Although the lowest price of the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB remains at around 550 euros—still a significant difference from the RTX 5070 12GB's 650 euros—such high-value stock tends to sell out almost instantly.

It is worth noting that this model currently has relatively sufficient supply, with no significant shortages observed. The price increase is primarily due to NVIDIA's new product prioritization strategy.

Previously, there were reports that due to the impact of GDDR7 memory prices, NVIDIA might temporarily halt production of the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB graphics card to allocate capacity to the more profitable RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti.

Although the company has stated that production will not be discontinued, they also admitted that priority will be given to producing the RTX 5060, RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, and RTX 5070 Ti models. As a result, other models have seen their prices rise due to limited supply.
