RTX 5090 may become scarce: the price may increase by 1,5-2 times
According to the latest rumors, NVIDIA RTX 5090 may face a shortage at launch. Demand for the graphics card is expected to significantly exceed supply, which could lead to a sharp rise in prices. Some sources predict that the RTX 5090 price could exceed the recommended price by 1,5-2 times.
The possible shortage is due to limited production volumes at the initial stage and increased interest from enthusiasts. Recall that the recommended price of the card is $1999, but in case of shortage it may rise to $3000 or even higher in a number of regions.
RTX 5090 promises up to 40% raw performance gains over RTX 4090However, high expectations and limited supply may make it difficult for those hoping to purchase the card at the recommended price.
If the situation is confirmed, the market could repeat the scenario with the RTX 30-series, when retail prices were significantly higher than official prices due to limited supply and high demand. NVIDIA has not yet commented on these rumors, but the situation may become clearer closer to the launch date.
