In my calendar, January 30 is circled many times over in sparkly gel pen. For what reason? A birthday? An anniversary? No, two hotly anticipated hardware launches of course—specifically from Nvidia's RTX 50-series. However, word from a UK-based retailer suggests I shouldn't get my hopes up of actually getting hold of one.
Amid rumours aplenty, staff at Overclockers UK took to the forums to confirm that stock availability for both the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 will be extremely limited upon release. So limited in fact, that Overclockers UK only has a "single digit" amount of the RTX 5090 graphics cards in stock a week before launch (via Videocardz).
