Yesterday, the RTX 5090 and 5080 finally entered the market. High -powerful and high quality graphics processors are hot goods, with both cards being sold quickly in most retail channels and leaving many future buyers cold.
As a result, both graphic processors (especially RTX 5090) scalp On the resale websites like eBay. Almost immediately after the start, RTX 5090S is purchased for over $ 6,000, and now the price has jumped even more, Hitting a $ 9,000 peakAn increase of 350% over the GPU MSRP of $ 1.999.
Why are people ready to buy the graphic processor at this excessive price? Well, the RTX 5090 is not only good for games, but also AI loads, which means that many who manage startups or companies in AI are looking to handle a chip to manage locally models. Given the NVIDIA data graphics processors are out of reach for many, the RTX 5090 becomes the next best option, regardless of its pricing on the market.
But the game community does not accept a shortage of supplies and scalpers that sit. The Ebay auction site is now full of counterfeit lists designed to lure the potential buyers of these expensive cards to buy on image from RTX 5090, not the card itself.
List Describes the graphics processor with the following conclusion: “Bots and scalpers welcome, do not buy, if you are a person, you will receive a picture in a frame of 5090, you will not receive 5090. S
Another sold list For $ 2.457 it says: “GeForce RTX 5090 (read only a description) photo – not the actual element,” with a similar description, which mentions that there will be no refund of image amounts, which is not the RTX 5090.
The root of the problem lies in the lack of competition in the high -end consumer GPU market. With the AMD RX 9070 series, it almost certainly fails to compete for the Power crown with NVIDIA, and Intel is lagging behind, Nividia is dominated. And given the shortage of cards and the shocking price point, it paints a gloomy picture for high -end builders and enthusiasts.
