RTX 5090 supply reportedly dwindling as Nvidia nears discontinuation
Reports and rumors indicate Nvidia's RTX 5090 flagship GPU is being phased out, with no replacement expected until at least 2028. Retail prices have climbed from a $1,999 MSRP to over $7,500, and Micro Center is said to be ending its stock of the standalone card, leaving prebuilt PCs as one of the remaining purchase routes.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
If supply genuinely dries up, prices could climb further, mirroring what happened after the RTX 4090 was discontinued, according to the report. This would make prebuilt systems bundling the 5090 one of the few remaining ways to acquire the card near current pricing before scarcity pushes costs even higher.
- RTX 5090 reportedly facing discontinuation with no replacement before 2028
- Standalone card prices have risen from $1,999 MSRP to over $7,500
