Just as Nvidia warned that it would happenThehe GeForce RTX 5090 and 5080 graphics cards Everyone is effectively selling online. The next inevitable step is to get scalper bottles to join and offer these expensive graphic processors for astronomical prices. However, instead of finding the normal sheet of distributors on eBay, the most famous 5090 lists try to fuck the bots by selling them a picture of the cards.
While the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 is in hot search, $ 2000 5090 takes over the largest beating. It is reported that some personal and online stores had only a few cards for sale, and they went quickly. Micro centers in the United States gave vouchers to the first few people to go in order personally. Online stocks of RTX 5090 are even more terrible. On the popular component site Neweg (Via PCWORLD), each AIM card for RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 is listed as outside a warehouse. This includes everything from cards from $ 1,000 to $ 2500 Gigabyte Aorus RTX 5090.
Previously, Nvidia warned that the shares of RTX 5080 and 5090 would be low. Either way, the shortage caused a massive confusion for future buyers. The limited start on January 30 created mass horror among customers around the world. Images of r/nvidia Subreddit shows future customers who are arranged in the US, UK, Japan, and elsewhere to deal with new graphic processors, despite the January cold.
The next step will be scalper lists, but the first page of RTX 5090 on the resale site is filled with RTX 5090 lists. One RTX 5090 sold For $ 6,000 the same day since the start of the cards, January 30th. However, there is a place in the void, which is RTX scalp. Gizmodo found the first page of RTX 5090 lists is Full of fake 5090 cards Designed to deceive bots. Some of these lists call for future buyers to “read” or to ask some “people” to check the list before they hit the purchase.
Some lists include the description “You will receive a photo of RTX 5090. You will not receive the product.” Other reads: “Do not buy if it is a person; This is only for bots! … you will only receive printed paper from 5090. “
Gizmodo turned to some of these Ebay accounts. Ebay profiles, who wanted to remain anonymous, told us that their list was not a consistent effort on behalf of each particular PC Gamer community. They said that they had individually hoped to defeat a scalper, which seems increasingly uninformed in every major hardware edition. An account holder told us that “disgusting do what scalpers do and their control over users.”
It is not clear how well this works. A seller on eBay noted that a person had placed an order and then asked to cancel, showing that this was not a bot he bought one. We strongly suggest that people do not follow in the footsteps of these eBay sellers. You will probably mislead the naive or desperate GPU buyer, not every scalper bot.
If nothing else, the work of anti-scalds shows how horrible the situation has become with each new hardware edition. Companies’ attempts to defeat scalpers largely fail, especially if the product has limited quantities. When Sony released limited quantities from the special PS1-stylish PlayStation 5 Pro, he tried to force customers through a website attached to their PlayStation account. Unfortunately for Sony and Hungry PS5 customers, Scalpers sold the devices At extremely inflated prices.
The only consistent way to beat the scalpers is to have enough startup supply to answer the search. Nintendo has promised he would not suffer the same fate with him Upcoming switch 2But we’ll have to see him to believe it. Nvidia could avoid this snfau by slowing the release of cards to improve the stock. However, it is too late and the gin is out of the bottle. We suggest you don’t spend $ 6,000 or more on a graphics card. The RTX 5090 certainly looks like fun, but we all still have to wait for CPU hardware and software to catch up before seeing the true capabilities of these most graphic processors.
