NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 ‘Blackwell’ GPUs to Drive Huge Demand

NVIDIA’s upcoming GeForce RTX 50 “Blackwell” GPUs are likely going to get all sorts of attention on its launch, and suppliers are already gearing up for the production run.

The upcoming RTX 50 series is one of the most anticipated releases in gaming hardware, coming at a point where NVIDIA has expanded significantly since the debut of its Ada Lovelace lineup. Expect the demand for these new gaming GPUs to be substantially greater, and according to Taiwanese supplier Auras Technology (via DigiTimes), the RTX 50 series is “going to seize the markets as soon as December.” This means companies will soon change their attention towards manufacturing the new GPUs.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 ‘Blackwell’ GPUs Set to Make Major Impact in Gaming, Suppliers Expect High Demand

Auras Technology, which specializes in providing cooling solutions for discrete GPUs, will likely play a key role in the production of the Blackwell GPUs. Yu-Shen Lin, CEO of Auras, said the RTX 50 series will stir up a hefty amount of interest in the market, which in turn would impact supply. As a result, it expects stable demand for cooling components in the consumer and server hardware markets throughout this year, which gives the company confidence regarding future sales.

Meanwhile, in related news, ZOTAC’s parent company PC Partner which also owns brands like Inno3D and Manli, has relocated from Hong Kong over to Singapore. The reason for this strategy is to bypass US sanctions and tariffs which as it turns out could affect NVIDIA’s highest-end GPUs, currently affecting Hong Kong, which has been subject to US policies. It was a quick and quiet exit strategy, with PC Partner quickly having found its way on the Singapore Stock Exchange.

Moreover, the latest detection of an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 (later confirmed as an RTX 4070 Ti) inside a ZOTAC factory in Indonesia suggests that PC Partner is not only doing business at this location. All this makes it an ideal backdrop for the launch of NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 50 “Blackwell” GPUs to debut at CES 2025 if there’s no early product by NVIDIA in relative terms.
