A report published on October 27, 2026, alleges that Palit had decided to close a GALAX factory because it could not secure enough NVIDIA chips. The report attributes the claim to unnamed industry sources. It also said already-manufactured GALAX cards might remain on sale until existing inventory ran out.

The same report said GALAX presented a GeForce RTX 5080 HOF Extreme on October 22, 2026.
