Are Nvidia RTX 50 Super GPUs Delayed by High GDDR7 Memory Costs?

Reports indicate that Nvidia has completed the design for its upcoming RTX 50 Super series GPUs, but their release is currently stalled due to supply chain pricing issues. Specifically, the cost of 3GB GDDR7 memory modules is reportedly triple that of the 2GB variants, creating a significant barrier to production at competitive price points. This pricing discrepancy may force Nvidia to reconsider its memory configurations or launch timelines for the refreshed lineup. High-end memory costs have frequently impacted GPU release cycles in recent years. How much of a price premium would you be willing to pay for the increased capacity of 3GB GDDR7 modules?
