I'm going to level with you: I don't even react to RTX 5090 price increases these days. Yes, it might be the best graphics card out there in terms of sheer power, but that means nothing if the average PC player has a better chance of seeing Nessie than adding the card to their rig.
However, things could now get a lot worse for the RTX 5090 thanks to board price increases linked to GDDR7 costs. A Board Channels post highlighted by Videocardz signals that the boards used by the GPU are set to increase by $300, but Nvidia hasn't announced any MSRP changes as of yet.
