The next generation of PC graphics will kick off at CES 2025

The graphics card hype train left the station weeks before CES 2025 kicks off in early January, with the launch of Intel's 249 Arc B580 – the GPU we've begged for since the pandemic. But make no mistake: Intel decided to launch its second-gen Arc in December because CES is shaping up to be an absolute banger for graphics card releases. Nvidia is already teasing an RTX 50-series announcement at CEO Jensen Huang's keynote, while the rumor mill claims AMD's new Radeon cards will also make an appearance at the show. Yes, friends, after a disappointing few years for graphics cards, the next generation of gaming goodness should be unveiled at CES 2025 and Nvidia, AMD, and Intel look ready to brawl. Let's start with Nvidia's hotly anticipated GeForce RTX 50-series, because the company is already actively, not-so-slyly teasing it.
