RTX 5090 supplies to be 'stupidly high' next month as GB200 wafers get repurposed, asserts leaker

Nvidia RTX Blackwell for Creators.

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50 reveal and launch weren't perfect; they were riddled with obfuscating charts, the non-existent supply at launch followed by disappointing performance, and unresolved connector concerns. However, it seems that at least the supply aspect of these issues is expected to improve. Renowned leaker MEGAsizeGPU reports "stupidly high" RTX 5090 supply arriving in just one month. Apparently, demand for data center GB200 chips fell short of Nvidia's projections. Subsequently, excess yields from TSMC are allegedly being repurposed for consumer-grade GB202 chips that fit in Nvidia's RTX 5090.

Instantly after the embargo lifted, almost every RTX 50 GPU vanished except for a few non-MSRP models that also flew off shelves shortly afterward. Given the limited supply, retailers didn't expect RTX 50 inventory for months. However, it seems that Nvidia is finally ramping up RTX 50 production, especially seeing how AMD is gearing up for its RDNA 4 reveal later this month.
