Nvidia has reportedly ended production of four graphics cards: the RTX 2060 Super, RTX 2060, GTX 1660 Super, and GTX 1660. This marks the end of some of Nvidia's most popular GPUs.

According to this report from IT Home (opens in new tab) (spotted by WCCFtech (opens in new tab)), suppliers told the outlet that Nvidia is discontinuing four GPU SKUs and that all existing inventory has been sold. Therefore, if this report is to be believed, all that remains on store shelves will be the last of these GPUs.

Nvidia recently stated in a report that its gaming sales have dropped significantly and that it is working on "channel price adjustments" (opens in new tab) at a time when many of its GPUs are on the market and demand has dropped significantly. The drop in demand is somewhat related to Ethereum's move to a proof-of-stake (opens in new tab) algorithm that no longer requires large-scale GPU mining. With the used market flooded with these old GPUs, it makes sense that Nvidia is ready to dump these cards and clear out the remaining inventory.

According to the Steam hardware survey from last October (opens in new tab), the RTX 2060 is the second most used GPU in the world for Steam users, up from 5.19% to 6.10% since September 2022.

In 2021, the RTX 2060 and RTX 2060 Super were back in production at the height of the GPU shortage, and RTX 30 series graphics cards were nearly impossible to find, selling on eBay for well above MSRP (open in new tab).

Today's news hopefully means that Nvidia will start dropping prices on cheap RTX 30 series cards like the RTX 3060 (opens in new tab). This particular graphics card is good enough for gaming, but is simply too expensive.
