CyberPowerPC is offering pre-built gaming PCs containing Nvidia RTX 5070, 5080 and 5090 Founders Edition GPUs on Walmart, timed to Nvidia's GeForce Week promotion running September 21-27. The builds are discounted between roughly $580 and over $1,300 off their listed prices, though supplies are limited.
CyberPowerPC's SLC8500WST prebuilt pairs AMD's Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor with Nvidia's RTX 5080 Founders Edition graphics card, 32GB of DDR5-6000 memory, and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, all for $2,299 at Walmart. The CPU and GPU alone typically cost over $2,000 when bought separately, making the bundled memory and storage essentially free by comparison.
An RTX 5090 Founders Edition owner reported that Nvidia rejected an RMA request after 30 days, citing an unreadable serial number printed on the card's metal bracket. The user says the card wasn't tampered with, and several other Reddit users report similar warranty denials tied to the same faded serial number issue.
An RTX 5090 Founders Edition owner reported that Nvidia rejected their RMA request after keeping the crashing GPU for over a month, citing an unreadable serial number on the card's metal bracket. The owner insists the card was never opened or tampered with, and other Reddit users say they've noticed similar fading on their own Founders Edition cards' printed serial numbers.
