We just tested the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, and spoiler alert: we love it! And with the time we got to see the RTX 5080, there’s a whole lot of gaming horsepower here too. But there’s just one problem — stock issues will be an issue with this launch.

I know at the moment it’s all technically hearsay via the occasional news post. But I’ve been working my way around manufacturers and the word on the street is that while demand will be high, the amount of cards on sale will be low.

Not only that, but the price tag is a big one. The RTX 5090 will cost $1,999 (£1,939), and the RTX 5080 has an MSRP of $999 (£979). However, I'll repeat what I said in my hands-on impressions. If you're upgrading from anything like the 10, 20 or 30 series, the uplifts are mindblowing.

I want to make sure you’ve got the best chance possible to pick up one of these GPUs, hence this live blog covering every stock drop this week.

Plus, I’m going to take this chance to highlight the price cuts that will happen to RTX 4090 and RTX 4080. The vast majority of DLSS 4 tech will be coming to these older generation cards (minus multi frame generation and a couple of the RTX neural technologies), and you’ll still be future-proofed for a good few years with these older cards too. So if you want to save yourself some money, these will be great options too.
