RTX 5090 reviews have been out for more than a day. While these GPUs are said to hit shelves on January 30, scalpers already promise pre-reserved slots (via VideoCardz) without any returns or refunds. It is no secret that the initial supply is constrained at launch, but are you willing to splurge up to $7,000 to be among the first few owners?
The RTX 5090 is around 25% faster than its predecessor, the RTX 4090, in games while carrying a similar price premium, provided you get one at MSRP. With just one week left before launch, OCUK, a large UK retailer, reportedly holds less than 10 RTX 5090s in inventory. Preliminary overseas listings allege a 40% markup versus MSRP if you can purchase one since supply is expected to be very tight.
