Lucky shopper finds RTX 5080 for just $702 at Walmart — saves almost $800 compared to current retail prices

In a fortunate shopping experience, a Walmart customer discovered a PNY-branded Nvidia RTX 5080 graphics card priced at merely $702.56. This marked a significant savings of $546.44 compared to the card's suggested retail price of $1,249. The card's actual price on other major retailers such as Amazon, Newegg, and Best Buy, is often over $1,500, making the Walmart clearance price virtually half the cost.

The shopper also confirmed the GPU's authenticity and condition before making the purchase. The PNY GeForce RTX 5080 OC is a factory-overclocked version capable of 4K gaming and content creation, boasting 10,752 CUDA cores, 16GB of GDDR7 memory, and up to 960 GB/s of memory bandwidth. It features fifth-generation Tensor cores and fourth-generation RT cores for AI acceleration and hardware-accelerated ray tracing, including Nvidia's DLSS 4 technology.

When found in Walmart's clearance aisle, similar GPU deals have occurred before, like a $562.49 price in February, which was a remarkable discount of $430 from the MSRP of $999.
