Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090 starts at $1,999 before you factor in upsells from the company's partners or price increases driven by scalpers and/or genuine demand. It costs more than my entire gaming PC.

As posted on Reddit by known leaker IcePopsicleDragon and NeoGAF, RTX 5090 and 5080 custom GPU prices from Asus, MSI and Gigabyte have been leaked, with B&H Photo reportedly listing the cost of several graphics cards via PC PartPicker. The prices match another leak by user JCarnage10 on Reddit.

FireStrike, which is the DirectX 11 benchmark for gaming PCs, reportedly highlighted a 36 percent performance improvement. It was evaluated in Performance, Extreme, and Ultra scenarios. Meanwhile, the DirectX 12 TimeSpy benchmark revealed a 33 percent improvement over the RTX 4090 GPU on Performance and Extreme settings.
