Dave has been gaming since the days of Zaxxon and Lady Bug on the Colecovision, and code books for the Commodore Vic 20 (Death Race 2000!). He built his first gaming PC at the tender age of 16, and finally finished bug-fixing the Cyrix-based system around a year later. When he dropped it out of the window.
It's the end of the year, so of course thoughts are going to start moving on towards the future, to what's coming down the pipe for the next go around the local shining celestial body. But we are also at the end of one whole generation of graphics cards and have just seen the very first GPU drop from the next generation., and it forms the vanguard of the Battlemage range of GPUs, with the higher-spec cards set to drop in 2025.
That's fine if your budget is $1,000+ because I'm sure there are going to be a host of fresh opportunities for you to spend that money burning a hole in your pocket right now—I expect Nvidia will have at least two new cards in that price tier. But for those of us with less extravagant tastes, or fiscal holdings, the budget end of the market is going to be of greatest interest to us.Let's start with the latest graphics card to grace our test benches, that Intel Arc B580.
And what of the big guns of Jen-Hsun and crew? Nvidia is all set to release new Blackwell graphics cards at CES in January with the expectation being that we'll see RTX 50-series cards starting to launch that same month.following a monthly cadence thereafter, but the rumours are suggesting a more accelerated program than we've seen from the green team in the past.
So, maybe March might see a $300 RTX 5060 launch with performance that's getting closer to an RTX 4060 Ti or, heaven forbid, an RTX 4070 .
