Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 and 5080 GPU prices are already rising

Getting your hands on a new Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 or RTX 5080 GPU is going to be even costlier than expected. Two board partners are already bumping prices up just a week after the new card launch, with MSI removing 5090 cards priced at the $1,999 MSRP completely, while Asus has raised the price on its top-spec $3,000 5090 card by a huge $400.

With stock availability so low, the pricing around new Nvidia graphics cards has been more theoretical than anything, with most gamers left unable to pick one up for themselves. Despite the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 now being among the best graphics cards that you can buy, scalpers and stock shortages are expected to keep the prices running high for months.
