Top-shelf graphics cards have always commanded a substantial price premium, but some folks simply crave the best no matter the cost. Asus' shiny ROG Matrix Platinum RTX 5090 is the company's new halo card, and it's coming in at a hefty $4,000. There's just one small problem: You can't get one anymore.
Asus really made the Matrix an exclusive product, as it only produced 1,000 of these cards, and they're reportedly sold out already. That's a fairly impressive feat for a card that carries about a 42% price premium over the $2,800 that standard-issue RTX 5090s are currently going for. Given the regular cards are still available from several vendors, it's safe to say the Matrix has quite the halo-product allure.
