IT Home reported on November 14 that Nvidia has undergone a series of major upheavals over the past week. With Jensen Huang stepping down as CEO, concerns have arisen about the future of GeForce graphics cards and even the entire gaming business.
However, Nvidia brand promoter Jacob Freeman responded to those concerns, explicitly denying that the company would abandon its gaming graphics card business and reassuring many gamers who had been considering switching to AMD or Intel.
While attending PDXLAN, one of North America's largest LAN gaming gatherings, Freeman posted on X about the company's recent turmoil, emphasizing that Nvidia would continue to support the PC gaming business.
He also shared several photos looking back on Nvidia's participation in the event over the years. “A lot has happened this week. I feel very fortunate to work with so many wonderful colleagues who love PC gaming, hardware, and technology. Our work will continue!”
An X user then asked him directly: “Hey, Jacob, a lot of people are saying the GeForce era is coming to an end. What do you think?” Freeman replied simply: “No.”
Some gamers had previously worried that Nvidia would abandon its gaming graphics card business, leaving them without the opportunity to upgrade to an RTX 6000 series graphics card.
However, amid explosive growth in the global AI industry, the DRAM (dynamic random-access memory) market is currently facing a severe supply crisis, particularly a shortage of 3GB GDDR7 memory chips. As IT Home previously reported, these factors forced the RTX 50 “SUPER” series, originally scheduled for release in the first half of 2026, to be delayed. There were even reports early this year that its release had been “shelved indefinitely.”
This gap has turned market attention early to the more distant RTX 60 series. Reports from early this year said Nvidia planned to launch RTX 60 series graphics cards in the second half of 2027, using the Rubin architecture.
