There is a lot of expectation about the RTX 50 series, which has not yet been officially announced by Nvidia and which would feature a new Blackwell graphics architecture. Computex 2024 is tipped as the venue for an RTX 50 series presentation, although we should take this with a grain of salt. Computex will be held in a month, and we will be bringing you all the news that arises there. We will keep you informed.
