NVIDIA has finally laid to rest the last GeForce GPUs to feature the "GTX" brand extension, the GTX 16-series "Turing." Although two generations older than the current RTX 40-series "Ada," the GTX 16-series formed the entry-level for NVIDIA, with certain SKUs continuing to ship to graphics card manufacturers, and more importantly, notebook ODMs as popular GeForce MX and GTX 16-series SKUs. With NVIDIA introducing further cut-down variants of its "Ampere" based GA107 silicon, such as the desktop RTX 3050 6 GB, the company has reportedly discontinued the GTX 16-series. All its inventories are drained on NVIDIA's end, and the channel is expected to consume the last remaining chips in the next 1-3 months, according to a source on Chinese forum Broad Channels.
