NVIDIA GTX 1630 can be the first X30 model in the GTX series. Until now, we have seen cards such as GT 730 or GT 1030, but these are already very old solutions. Meanwhile, the last NVIDIA GTX Toring card, 1650, was released in April 2019, that is, more than 3 years ago.

With rising prices for graphic processors, NVIDIA seems to have abandoned the market of inexpensive video cards. The company released its RTX 3050 desktop in January of this year, that is, 14 months after the debut of the first AMPERE models. Nevertheless, with an initial price of US $ 249 and the actual retail price of more than $ 330, this model is still inaccessible to many gamers.

AMD, which issued the Radeon RX 6500XT and RX 6400 cards at about the same time, knows that NVIDIA has problems with the market of inexpensive graphic processors. Recently, the company launched a marketing campaign that demonstrates the value of the AMD Radeon RX 6000 series compared to the GeForce RTX 30, GTX 16/10 series. Here, in the budget market, the difference between AMD and NVIDIA prices is very noticeable, especially when you consider that these cards were not designed for heavy games with rays:

According to sources and leaks, the GeForce GTX 1630 is designed to replace the GTX 1050 Ti. Therefore, most likely, it will cost less than 190 US dollars (this is also the current GTX 1650 price). At the moment, the characteristics of the GTX 1630 are unknown, but you can expect the Tu117 (Toring) model with a power of less than 75 W and the updated GDDR6 memory. The GTX 1650 series includes five models, including TU106, TU116 and TU117 on the basis and even the Super option. However, not all these cards are available in each market, and the same principle can be applied to GTX 1630.

Information about the GTX 1630 is available only a couple of days, but reliable sources confirm its obvious output.
