MSI’s limited-edition RTX 5090 Lightning Z launched to great acclaim at CES 2026, with the ultra-powerful GPU breaking overclocking records even before it launched. The company only made 1,300 units of this high-performance graphics card, meaning it will only have limited availability. Its earth-shattering capabilities are only matched by its wallet-shattering $5,090 asking price — but scalpers are seemingly ready and willing to shell out that amount in the hopes of getting an even bigger payday when stock has run out.
