Newegg's RTX 5090 Restock Starts at $6,599, More Than Triple the MSRP

What happened

Newegg has restocked some GeForce RTX 5090 variants; at the time of writing the cheapest RTX 5090 sold directly by Newegg is the GIGABYTE AORUS RTX 5090 Xtreme Waterforce at $6,599.99, about 3.3 times NVIDIA's $1,999 MSRP. The restock includes a handful of ASUS, GIGABYTE, and MSI models as first-party listings that ship from Newegg itself rather than from marketplace sellers. The AORUS Master ICE goes for $6,759.99, while MSI's Gaming Trio OC, Ventus 3X OC, and Suprim Liquid SOC all sit at $6,999.99. An ASUS ROG Astral RTX 5090 OC was reportedly listed for $6,249.99 but has already sold out, and the current ROG Astral RTX 5090 OC listing is at $9,490. Despite how high these prices are, they are actually lower than a few weeks ago: TechSpot's October survey put the cheapest in-stock RTX 5090 in the US at $9,400 at that time, and most models sat comfortably above $11,000. Supply has been tight since early October, when leakers claimed NVIDIA had stopped allocating GB202 silicon to the RTX 5090 in favor of RTX PRO workstation cards, and Micro Center also dropped the card from its catalog shortly after. NVIDIA denied the card was discontinued but admitted supply is constrained; an unnamed board partner later said it can't currently order GB202 and GDDR7 as a set, or place backorders like before.
