NVIDIA stops production of GeForce RTX 3090 Ti

NVIDIA has allegedly requested its add-in-board (AIB) partners to temporarily stop production of the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti graphics cards. According to reports from two websites, there would be problems with the hardware and firmware. The exact nature of these inconveniences remains unclear, but it is possible that the new top of the range will arrive on the market a little later than expected.

TweakTown reported the news without revealing the reasons for the temporary suspension, when the request was made by NVIDIA or whether the company reached all of its partners. This report is supported by VideoCardz, which claims that NVIDIA wanted to pause production of its next flagship consumer product due to issues with the BIOS and hardware.

Generally, overheating due to insufficient cooling and / or overvoltage, the choice of wrong / weak components, problems with selected applications and incompatibility with some hardware are among the problems affecting newly distributed pieces. Developers try to avoid such situations, which can sometimes cause delays.

However, it never revealed its actual launch date and advised the enthusiast community to wait for more information over the next few weeks. In reality, the company hasn't even disclosed its actual specs, but only said that the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti will provide "40 TFLOPs for shaders, 78 TFLOPs for ray tracing, and a whopping 320 TFLOPS for AI", as well as to claim that it will be equipped with 24GB of GDDR6X memory with a data transfer rate of 21 GT / s.

Other sources have also indicated an alleged launch for January 27, but that date now appears to be in jeopardy.
