Alleged Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Pricing Leaks

Leaker suggests $1900 pricing for Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5090

The GeForce RTX 5090 is perhaps Nvidia’s worst-kept secret, even if its official pricing and the GPU’s real-world performance levels still elude us. It is widely believed that this new GPU will be revealed at CES 2025, and rumour has it that the GPU may become available on January 20th. Now, Bits And Chips claim Nvidia’s new gaming flagship will cost $1900.

If this pricing is correct, Nvidia’s MSRP for their RTX 5090 will be $300 higher than their RTX 4090. That said, it has been a long time since Nvidia’s RTX 4090 was available for its MSRP price. This GPU’s pricing has spiked in recent months, likely because stock levels are dwindling ahead of Nvidia’s RTX 50 series GPU launches. Regardless, a $300 price increase isn’t insignificant.

Recent rumours have claimed that Nvidia’s RTX 5090 will feature a colossal 32GB frame buffer. Furthermore, another specifications leak for the RTX 5090 suggests it will feature 21,760 CUDA cores, 32GB of GDDR7 memory, and a 600W TDP.

Damn, the GeForce RTX 5090 will cost ~1900 Dollar.

Next year, Nvidia is likely to have no competition within the ultra-high-end GPU market. Both AMD and Intel are set to focus on the mid-range market. This gives Nvidia free rein to set the price of their new flagship. After all, their only competition is their last-generation offerings, which are already in short supply. It should also be noted that Nvidia has increased the pricing of their new flagships with every generation. This has been the case for almost a decade.

Will Nvidia’s RTX 5090 cost $1900? Probably. Nvidia has no reason to lower its GPU pricing if its performance is enough to back it up. There is no competition to drive this GPU’s price down, and RTX 4090 pricing often exceeds these levels already.
