Nvidia reportedly says RTX 5090 not discontinued despite shortages
Senior vice president Jeff Fisher reportedly told Taiwanese outlets that Nvidia has not discontinued the RTX 5090 and will keep shipping the card, even though supply is constrained. The comments follow rumors that the RTX 50 Super series was put on hold and that production of the already‑rare RTX 5090 might be redirected to Nvidia’s AI accelerators.
Key points
- Jeff Fisher reportedly said Nvidia will continue shipping the RTX 5090 despite limited supply.
- Amazon lists RTX 5090 at about $8,500; Newegg at about $7,300, both from third‑party sellers.
- The card is absent from Nvidia’s own marketplace and Micro Center as of the article date.
Retail listings show the GPU still available only through third‑party sellers, with Amazon pricing it around $8,500 and Newegg listing it near $7,300, while Nvidia’s own store and Micro Center have no stock. The article notes that gaming revenue now represents a tiny share of Nvidia’s overall business, which is increasingly focused on AI.
Nvidia did not respond to requests for comment, and the report relies on 4Gamers and SJTV quoting a post‑event interview with Fisher.
