If the RTX 5090 is expected to be the future graphics card gaming the most powerful on the market, its price raises some concerns. Indeed, the RTX 4090 was already expensive, $1599 as a reminder. However, that of the new generation could be revised upwards once again!
RTX 5090: around $1900 according to Japanese and Chinese journalists!
The price of this future card is truly up for debate. So, un premier rapport de Moore’s Law is Dead indicated a similar price at the very least… Just before being contradicted by Wccftech who did not believe in such a price increase.
If we believe what is said by The Computer ChapuzasChinese and Japanese journalists would also have heard of a sale price of $1900 consistent with what MLID indicated. And again, these $1900 would only concern the version Founders Edition of the card. Custom models could be negotiated at much higher prices if we follow this route. Indeed, we can expect versions priced at $2000 or even $2400 for models premium like the Strix versions from ASUS to name a few.

Now it remains to be seen whether this price is justified. $1599 was already a significant sum for the 4090, but the pill finally wore off, why not go even further. To justify this, we will be told that performance is improving, etc., but that does not take away from the fact that the pricing would remain insane. On the other hand, given that AMD was abandoning the sector Enthusiasticwhat actually prevents the chameleon from selling his card at that price?
