NVIDIA Expects “Significant Demand” for the GeForce RTX 5090 and 5080 as People Begin Camping Out for “Blackwell” GPUs at Micro Center: “...

So looking at Microcenters website they are sold out already. Not sure if that is in store as well but I would bet it is. And I see at least on the website 0 RTX 5090's and no listing of FE cards at all. I HOPE that the FE's are not Best buy only again. If so... I definitely won't go that route.

Well I guess you can sell out even a $2000+ halo item if you only make 10 of them

Gotta keep the hype real

This was in part what I was referring to in my post on the weekend regarding to the 5070 Ti. Here's an extreme perspective of the hype, make 10,000 cards that sell all in an instant for the 5090 but then maybe make 50,000 and sell 15,000 of 5070 Ti and you could factually say that the 5090 is your biggest seller despite the other having had more units moved. My personal belief for those on a budget wanting the biggest bang for their buck is to consider the 5070 Ti but that's only true if sitting on a 4070 or less and wanting to upgrade.




Yep, tried my luck on BB. Kicked out of the waiting line 3 times before it switched to sold out ~7 minutes in.
 
Seems that there were again more cards sent to reviewers/influencers then to retailers as some ratailers claim only havinng received single digit nr of cards.

Gn has a video calling this a paper release with a ton of numbers.
 
Seen an Asus 5080 TUF for sale at a retailer for 2.200€, at those prices I'm sitting this one out.

Maybe if I can get a founders edition
