Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models

  Easy enough when they’re not selling

  I wish there were more laptops using AMD gpus here in Brazil. You basically can’t find any laptop with an AMD gpu if you search for “gamer laptop” in Brazilian stores.

    Gaming laptops are a not really worth it imo. They’re underpowered, overheat easily, and tend to break quickly. That doesn’t even touch on their battery life, even when not under load.I’d recommend getting a steam deck if you really need the portability, but it doesn’t look like they’re available in Brazil :/

      Steam deck and a gaming laptop don’t have the same niche. Laptop is great when you don’t have a permanent spot to setup a gaming computer, or traveling a lot for example, but still want to enjoy full experience. Deck is more for playing “on the go” so to speak.
      Buying gaming laptop was the best decision for me

        You can buy a USB dock and plug every peripheral into the Deck.

        You can use desktop mode, too.

        There is nothing the Deck can’t do. It has weaker hardware, but you can game on it just fine.

        I have mine plugged into a projector, for watching movies or playing games.

      Nah, I want the 15.6 inch screen screen and the keyboard and touch pad that comes with it. The steam deck is too small and I think it’s a little expensive here (Valve is not officially selling in Brazil as far as I know).

  I will when someone makes a GPU that can surpass a 4090. Not even Nvidia themselves can pull that off, so I’m not getting my hopes up. I’m going to me stuck with this GPU for the next decade the way things are going (not that I’m complaining. It’s a beast of a card, especially coming from someone who could only ever afford bargain bin parts until one day I came into a windfall. That was a fun 4 years.

    My 4070ti isn’t as beefy but there’s still not a non-nvidia upgrade. And I am able to play most of my games at 4k / 120. I’d like to upgrade mine so I can give my card to my daughter and give her 3060ti to her brother who is currently running a 1060.

    Youre not actively buying from them by using what you have. nobody buys a downgrade.

  The time to prevent Nvidia from practically gaining a total monopoly on the entire market by stopping buying Nvidia, was 10 years ago, not now.

  Now, I’ll consider buying a GPU from you instead if you can make a GPU that satisfies technical needs like Nvidia could, but you cannot.

    AMDs the last 10 years have been great. No overheating.
