Worrying information regarding the GeForce RTX 50 series has been published on the PC Games Hardware discussion forum. They mention stock limitations which will probably affect the launch in Germany.
The leak was picked up by PCGH which in turn evokes a complicated and difficult situation for all those wishing to acquire a high-end “Blackwell” solution upon its launch. The leak is reported to have gathered “damning” evidence from his network of contacts. She specifies
I was able to learn from knowledgeable reseller circles, the available contingent of graphics cards will be extremely limited! This applies in particular to the GeForce RTX 5090. Accordingly, NVIDIA is determining where and who exactly will offer its graphics cards during this market launch. B2B resellers and the broader local wholesale trade, which works primarily with business customers, will likely leave empty-handed.
The leak then tried to play down the drama by joking that the most impatient would have to fiddle with the F5 key and prepare for a tiring and frustrating shopping experience. It’s likely that avid gamers and creators aren’t the only ones interested. Scalpers and bots will also be there.
-It is therefore possible that the quantities that can be purchased will be limited to one card maximum. Several stores were listed as primary sources of stock. Here is this list
- Mindfactory
- Alternate (B2C, which excludes wave)
- Caseking (B2C—orders only via the online shop as a reseller)
- Cyberport/Computeruniverse
- NBB
- Pro Shop
Finally, it is claimed that stores like Amazon will not initially receive a card. Nvidia has already planned a “second, third, even fourth” waves. In the end, if all this is verified, everything is done so that prices explode. We do not know whether this situation will only concern Germany or will be generalized worldwide.
