Overview
- The leak, attributed to @hongxing2020 and reported by Wccftech, says Nvidia told partners it plans to restart RTX 3060 output early this year.
- Nvidia has not confirmed the plan, and the report offers no details on which 3060 variants would return or how many units, where, or at what price.
- Coverage links the reported restart to tightening DRAM and next‑gen VRAM supply, with the RTX 3060 using GDDR6 that may be easier to source than GDDR7.
- Recent reporting suggests Nvidia could reduce RTX 50‑series production by as much as 30–40% in early 2026 due to memory constraints.
- The RTX 3060, discontinued in 2024 after debuting in 2021, remains widely used, and Wccftech argues a sub‑$200 price would be needed to make a relaunch compelling.
