This Might Be Your Last Chance to Get a GeForce RTX 5080 Prebuilt Gaming PC for Under $3K in 2026

Nvidia is said to be decreasing production of the GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card, leading to a surge in prices for prebuilt gaming PCs equipped with this powerful GPU. Retailers are racing to offer deals before it's too late. Best Buy has a limited-time offer on a CyberPowerPC RTX 5080 prebuilt gaming PC, priced at $2,989.99 after a $340 instant discount.

This is one of the final chances to purchase a 5080 prebuilt under the $3,000 price point. The system comes with an AMD Ryzen 9 9900X CPU – a 12-core, 24-thread Zen 5 processor with a maximum boost clock of 5.6GHz, making it suitable for gaming, workstation, and productivity tasks. It also features 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 2TB SSD.

The PC is housed in a modified Phanteks Evol X2 chassis, a high-quality midtower case with a panoramic tempered glass design, providing ample room for future upgrades and excellent airflow for heat-generating components. With the GeForce RTX 5080 boasting one of the fastest GPUs on the market, it can handle demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing, thanks to the DLSS 4.5 update.
