What we expect from the Nvidia CES 2021 keynote
Nvidia is hot off the launch of its Ampere lineup of graphics cards, just recently launching the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti on December 1, 2020. However, Nvidia is just getting started.
We seriously doubt that Nvidia is going to stop releasing Ampere desktop graphics cards any time soon – there were 12 GeForce cards last generation, and we expect the same this time around – and there are currently only 4 Ampere cards.

We’ve heard some rumors that Nvidia is getting ready to launchthree new desktopgraphics cards at CES 2021, and given that everyone is at home playing games still, we think that’s pretty likely.
PC gaming is more than just desktop, though. We’ve also heard a lot of rumors about Nvidia launching itsRTX 3000 mobilitylineup for the best gaming laptops at CES 2021. Keep in mind that RTX 2000 graphics processors for laptops dropped at CES 2019 just months after the RTX 2080 hit the streets in September 2018 – the timing lines up perfectly.
We’re sure Nvidia has some surprises up its sleeves, too, so we’ll just have to wait and see what Nvidia has to offer at its CES 2021 keynote.
