Facepalm: Imagine getting ahead of the scalpers and securing a $3,000+ RTX 5090, only for the connectors on the card and cable to melt. There has been yet another one of these incidents reported, with both ends of the 12VHPWR, the card, and the PSU all showing burn damage. The latest case, reported by a Redditor called Roachard, involved an MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC. He bought the card from Best Buy about a month ago for just over $3,000 and paired it with a Corsair SF1000L on an Asus Strix B

In a nutshell: Laptops featuring Nvidia's high-end RTX 50 series graphics cards have started rolling out, and early reviews suggest the company's latest flagship offers a somewhat lukewarm uplift over its predecessor. Furthermore, a new series of benchmarks indicates that moving down one rank might provide very similar performance while saving customers hundreds of dollars. Notebookcheck recently tested a mobile Nvidia RTX 5090 and 5080 paired with the same CPU, providing a nearly like-for-like

WTF?! With the current demand for graphics cards combined with the low stock levels, it seems people will pay almost anything for an RTX 5000-series GPU. There appears to be no limit to what consumers will accept, as illustrated by the $3,719 Asus RTX 5090 cards that came into stock at Micro Center but were sold out just hours later. Third-party manufacturers have been pushing the prices of their Blackwell cards higher and higher recently, making a mockery of Nvidia's MSRPs. Earlier this month

Highly anticipated: Nvidia's RTX 50 series laptops go on sale in a few days, and the first reviews of the company's new flagship mobile GPU are now online. Although the laptop RTX 5090 closely resembles its predecessor in some tests, a more complete picture will likely emerge once a wider range of notebook models featuring the graphics card become available. Notebookcheck, ComputerBase, Hardwareluxx, PCMag, and other outlets recently received one of the first gaming laptops to feature Nvidia's

Two months after the anticipated desktop RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, the next phase of Nvidia's next-gen graphics card lineup is finally here. I tried out the RTX 5090 mobile onboard the new Razer Blade 16, and while I'll have broader thoughts on the machine soon in a review, I first want to focus on how the RTX 5090 itself feels on a gaming laptop. Nvidia's RTX 50 series has some interesting advances over the preceding RTX 40 series. The open approach to multi-frame generation, which uses artificia

A hot potato: It's another day, another company raising the prices of its already expensive RTX 5090 graphics cards. On this occasion, the culprit is Zotac, which has also removed any flagship cards priced at MSRP from its storefront. As highlighted by a Reddit user, the cheapest RTX 5090 Zotac card on the company's store, the Solid OC, is now $2,700, while the RTX 5090 Amp Extreme Infinity is $3,000. That's an increase of $500 on each card compared to their original prices. Zotac's store no l

In brief: Seeing graphics cards selling way above their MSRP is a frustrating reminder of the current market situation. Things are even worse on auction sites like eBay, which have listings for RTX 5090 cards well over $5,000. An upcoming auction featuring the Blackwell flagship will likely surpass $16,000, but in this rare case, that'll be a good thing. Asus revealed the ROG Astral RTX 5090 Dhahab OC graphics card in early February. As the name suggests, the card is a special edition of the re

WTF?! It's almost impossible to find an RTX 5080 or RTX 5090 outside of auction sites right now, especially at MSRP – unless, that is, you happen to be an attendee at Nvidia's 2025 GPU Technology Conference, where they can be purchased for these prices from a food truck. From 7AM to 12PM on Thursday and Friday (they were also sold on Wednesday), Nvidia is selling RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 cards at their $999 and $1,999 respective MSRPs from the Nvidia gear van at GTC park.

A hot potato: Hard as it is to believe, new graphics cards from Nvidia and AMD are becoming more expensive. Asus is the latest third-party manufacturer to hike the prices of its RTX 5090 and RX 9070 models, with the former card starting at $2,759 and the latter at $719. The current graphics card situation is a repeat of what happened during the pandemic-induced chip crisis a few years ago. Buying a new GPU is almost impossible without resorting to eBay, and retailers' prices make a mockery of M

A hot potato: Remember during the chip crisis when people were so desperate for graphics cards that they were buying prebuilds just for the GPUs? The complete lack of RTX 5000 stock has led some gamers to once again consider this extreme measure, but one desktop vendor has warned, "we're getting scalped," meaning custom RTX 5090 builds are priced at $5,000 or more. Jese Martinez, CEO of custom PC builder PowerGPU, posted a video on X explaining that the company is facing the same problems with

In brief: China is in a frenzy to get its hands on the Nvidia RTX 5090 graphics card – but not just because people are desperate for more FPS in their games. The demand is the result of DeepSeek's AI models, which companies realize they can run on Nvidia's consumer GPUs at a fraction of what it would cost them to buy AI accelerators.

Facepalm: Nvidia's RTX 50 series has experienced one of the most unpopular launches in recent memory, with moderate-at-best performance gains, severe supply constraints, and dramatically inflated prices from board partners. To make matters worse, some customers have begun reporting units with defective components, leading to slightly lower performance.

Nvidia’s RTX 50-series GPUs are just around the corner, with the first releases — the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 — dropping on January 30th. The RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070 will follow that with their own releases in February, but some are already getting a sneak peek at the software benefits of the GPUs through DLSS 4. Tom Warren’s Verge review of the $1,999 RTX 5090 indicates it’s expectedly a powerhouse but not quite the generational leap that the RTX 4090 was over its own predecessor. That didn’t s

It’s true : Nvidia has just confirmed it shipped some RTX 5090, RTX 5090D, and even some RTX 5070 Ti graphics chips that were missing render units, as TechPowerUp originally reported — and that you’ll be able to get a replacement if your card was affected. We have identified a rare issue affecting less than 0.5% (half a percent) of GeForce RTX 5090 / 5090D and 5070 Ti GPUs which have one fewer ROP than specified.
