Nvidia RTX GPU vendor Palit denies its Galax factory has closed due to a shortage of chips
Palit denies news that Galax is going out of production.
Palit, a GPU vendor, has refuted recent rumors suggesting its Galax factory has closed due to a shortage of Nvidia chips. In an official statement, Palit clarified that their operations are ongoing and no factories have been shut down. Customers can still purchase Galax GPUs through existing distributors and retailers for both domestic and international markets.
The company emphasized that Galax and Palit share the same factories, and production and business operations continue as usual. The rumors began with an exclusive report claiming Palit could no longer supply Nvidia GPU chips to Galax, leading to speculation about the brand's future. However, the sources were incorrect, and Galax GPUs will still be available on retail shelves.
The speculation was not surprising, given Nvidia's reported shift away from RTX 5090 production towards AI data center and professional GPUs, and Palit's recent restructuring that led to similar closure rumors. The underlying issue remains the GPU market's soaring prices due to an AI-driven memory chip shortage.
