NVIDIA cancels its March 24 press release

It looks like we shouldn't expect new GPUs from NVIDIA anytime soon. After cancelling GTC 2020 and the web version of it, the company was planning to make an announcement on March 24 but now there's news that the March 24 announcement is cancelled too.

The coronavirus is wreaking havoc on public life all over the world and is causing massive economic damage. As such, NVIDIA deems it inappropriate to launch new products.

We have exciting products and news to share with you.

But this isn’t the right time. We’re going to hold off on sharing our GTC news for now.

That way, our employees, partners, the media and analysts who follow us, and our customers around the world can focus on staying safe and reducing the spread of the virus.

We will still stream tons of great content from researchers and developers who have prepared great talks.

This is a time to focus on our family, our friends, our community. Our employees are working from home. Many hourly workers will not need to work but they’ll all be fully paid.

Stay safe everyone. We will get through this together.
