Lenovo and HP run out of RTX 5090 gaming desktops as standalone GPUs disappear from US retailers
Nvidia's RTX 5090 is increasingly difficult to purchase across the US, with retailers reporting shortages and graphics cards commanding substantial price increases.
Lenovo and HP are struggling to sell their RTX 5090 gaming desktops as the high-performance graphics cards are almost impossible to find in the United States. Several major online retailers, including Amazon and Newegg, have sold out of the expensive components, with available prices often exceeding double the original launch price of $1,999.
Consumers can still purchase RTX 5090-equipped computers from manufacturers such as HP and Lenovo, but those options come with a hefty price tag, reaching up to $13,499.99 in some cases. The shortage of standalone RTX 5090 graphics cards is also pushing prices up, with some models now available at more than 150% over the original launch price on various retailers' websites.
Despite the scarcity, Dell's Alienware Area-51 range still offers the RTX 5090 option, while Best Buy continues to advertise desktop configurations from independent manufacturers like Skytech and CLX.
