NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5090 Discontinuation Denied by Company
NVIDIA denies reports of discontinuing the GeForce RTX 5090, despite retailer claims.
Leakers claimed that NVIDIA had stopped allocating GB202 silicon to the GeForce RTX 5090, effectively discontinuing the Blackwell flagship. TechPowerUp reported this claim but noted that NVIDIA denied it.
NVIDIA's SVP Jeff Fisher stated that the company will continue shipping the RTX 5090. However, a major retailer reportedly expects both the RTX 5090 and the RTX 5080 with 16 GB of memory to end production in early January 2027.
According to Guru3D, the retailer received its last RTX 5090 shipment in September, with a final batch of RTX 5080 16 GB cards expected by the end of October. Additionally, the same source found a placeholder SKU for an RTX 5080 with 24 GB of memory in the retailer’s system.
