en.Wedoany.com Reported - The release timeline for AMD and Nvidia's next-generation gaming GPUs (RDNA 5 and RTX 60 series) is gradually becoming clearer: multiple graphics card manufacturers predict that the new products will launch between late 2027 and early 2028. Dutch media outlet Tweakers inquired about the progress of RDNA 5 with several AIB partners at Computex 2026, and the feedback indicates that the timeline remains subject to change.

One manufacturer revealed that the next-generation AMD graphics cards are expected to launch in the second or third quarter of 2027; another believes the launch could be delayed to early 2028, though a late 2027 release remains possible. It is worth noting that there is a gap between product announcement and actual availability—for example, with RDNA 4, AMD showcased the architecture at CES in January 2025, but the first models, the RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT, did not ship until March. The RDNA 3 timeline was slightly faster, with a November 2022 announcement and a December 2022 launch. Given that RDNA 5 is rumored to be a major upgrade (including new features like dual-issue execution), AMD is reluctant to rush an immature product to market.

On the Nvidia side, the RTX 50 series was also unveiled at CES 2025. Current market rumors point to a late 2027 launch for gaming GPUs based on the Rubin architecture, alongside early reports of an RTX 60 series in early 2028. If this timeline holds true, the release schedules of the two GPU manufacturers will be highly synchronized, but it is still too early to make definitive judgments at this stage. The PC hardware industry is being influenced by the AI boom, and the priority of gaming GPUs within company strategies is shifting.

Intel continues to maintain its gaming-specific GPU business, recently launching the Arc G3 series (based on the Panther Lake chip) for handheld gaming consoles, but the future of its discrete graphics cards remains uncertain. In the console space, the Xbox Helix and Sony PS6 are expected to launch as early as next year—seven years after the current generation of consoles debuted. Both consoles will also be powered by next-generation AMD chips.
