The hardware world has spent most of this year wondering when next-gen GPUs from AMD and Nvidia would launch. As we head into fall, it's now looking like neither company will release anything until next year.

A few weeks ago, we reported it looked like AMD's upcoming RDNA 4 graphics cards could arrive at CES and therefore beat Nvidia's next-gen mainstream GPUs to market, the idea being that RDNA 4 isn't going to compete at the high end and Nvidia traditionally only releases top-end variants of any new GPU family at first.

AMD’s next-gen lineup of RDNA 4-based graphics cards are now expected to launch in 2025, according to sources close to YouTube channel Moore’s Law Is Dead.
