>Rubin’s bump-up would be specifically on an enterprise level.>While this could potentially happen in 2026, if Nvidia really is ahead of schedule on its latest architecture, there’s a possibility it could leap ahead and launch the Rubin architecture for consumer and gaming cards instead. This article is from December and there's new info.
The Blackwell generation of workstation cards are being released in May:

It seems unlikely to me that another generation of workstation stuff would release a few months later, but I admit I don't follow this business stuff. But, the way they're going to have
EIGHT new workstation cards shows you their priorities when 5090s are a theoretical product. It's a broken record at this point, but nvidia obviously does not care about the people that made them successful in the first 90% of their lifespan. But, gamer cards do get released when there's enough chips that fail to pass inspection for businesses purposes the way chips that fail to be a xx90 can be placed in lower priced versions.
I wouldn't expect consumer-level 60xx generation to be released this year if that's what you're thinking. First half of 2026? I don't know about that, but who knows. I just want more VRAM.
