There’s suddenly tons of Nvidia RTX 5090 GPU stock on the shelves of one US retailer – probably because no one wants to buy at nearly double the launch price
- Micro Center in the US has a surplus of Asus RTX 5090 GPUs, which are significantly overpriced at 85% above MSRP, possibly resulting in low demand.
- The Asus ROG Astral LC RTX 5090 OC Edition is priced at $3,719, almost double the MSRP set by Nvidia.
- Due to the high price, these GPUs are likely to remain on the shelves for a while until pricing is adjusted.
- While the RTX 5090 stock remains scarce online, there are reports of RTX 5080 GPUs being in stock at Micro Center.
- Some RTX 5080 models are available for ordering online at Newegg, albeit at a 36% premium over MSRP.
- This slight improvement in RTX 5080 availability hints at a possible shift in the market, although the RTX 5090 continues to face significant price inflation.
- The presence of RTX 5090 GPUs at Micro Center may not signify an overall improvement in stock levels across retailers.
- Nvidia is rumored to be working on more affordable GPUs to compete with AMD, while extravagant RTX 5090 liquid-cooled gaming laptops are also making waves.
- Stats released by Nvidia support the longevity of technologies like DLSS and Frame Generation in gaming.
