As we saw and continue to see with the 4090, hardly anyone will be getting their hands on it at MSRP, scalpers will be having a field day again! 3k minimum for 5090!
I really hate the approach of leaking a high price tag, get everybody to expect it, only to release with a slightly lower (but still high overall) to give the impression that it isn't that high after all.
A $2000 price tag for a consumer GPU, even top of the line, is still stupidly high.
According to a new report, the GeForce RTX 5090 may not be quite as expensive as earlier rumours suggested. With that being said, overclocked variants could still exceed $2,000 in the US.
