Looks like Intel and AMD's APUs are finally squeezing these low end chips out. It was inevitable, but I'll kind of miss them.

TSMC you mean. Gotta figure Ada is too expensive for the mx pricing and they've already done an Ampere mx product. Maybe if they ever get another cheap node it will be back.

For now they are going to sell the 3050 6 GB as the lowest end.

MX series were often paired with Intel or AMD chips whose onboard graphics were often more powerful. Aside from checklist ticking, their main purpose was to drain laptop batteries!

Does that mean my MX440 is going to become obsolete?

- I hate to be the one to tell you this... but it was already obsolete when you bought it.

However that doesn't mean it will no longer be supported with driver updates etc by Nvidia.

Oh I forgot. There's also the 64-bit version of the 3050 4 GB. Dunno how it differs from the mx570 but if they did give it 2560 cores they could have called that the mx670 instead of having three (+?) different specs with the same 3050 name?

Don't expect driver updates in a few years.

They EOLed my Geforce GTX Titan X. A Titan!

MX is like a fetus in comparison. They will abort it.

nVidia supports drivers pretty far back but not that far.
