- A renowned leaker states that AMD can’t launch its graphics cards before Nvidia.
- Following a recent Nvidia leak, AMD’s RDNA 5 lineup may be delayed until late 2027.
- It is said that Team Red will also introduce a flagship GPU this generation.
Although both Nvidia and AMD launched brand new graphics cards last year, the conversation has already shifted to the future. Recent rumors from reliable sources point to a 2027 launch for Nvidia’s RTX 60 series.
Joining the conversation, a well-known AMD leaker suggests that the RDNA 5 lineup will launch in a similar timeframe.
Why it matters: AMD did a great job with the RDNA 4 lineup, capitalizing on Nvidia’s high prices and unimpressive generational uplifts last year. The company will now aim to do the same with the upcoming graphics cards.
According to Kepler, RDNA 5 has been targeting a 2027 launch for a while. However, he also notes that the lineup is more or less guaranteed to debut after Nvidia’s RTX 60 series.
Therefore, if the leaks from Kopite7kimi regarding an H2 2027 launch for Nvidia’s next-gen GPUs are to be believed, AMD could see its upcoming GPUs slip to late 2027. Given this date, a formal reveal or announcement could show up at Computex the same year.
In terms of expectations for RDNA 5, past leaks suggest AMD is gearing up to launch a high-end offering for the family. A GPU with an AT0 configuration sporting 96CUs was previously hinted at by the same leaker when discussing a flagship RDNA 5 rival to Nvidia.
Although there’s no telling how AMD will proceed, it seems the gaming giant will wait on Nvidia to make the first move.
Depending on how Nvidia positions its RTX 60 series, AMD could lower or increase prices. The gaming giant opted for a similar approach last generation, choosing to undercut the RTX 50 series, which ended up working out quite well.
