  "account": "Nvidia's RTX 5090 appears to be disappearing from the market, raising concerns about the future of GeForce GPUs. Leakers reported that Nvidia is diverting all GB202 (Blackwell) chips to manufacture AI graphics cards, effectively discontinuing the RTX 5090. Micro Center and Nvidia's own GPU marketplace have removed the RTX 5090 listings. The RTX 5080, the highest-end GeForce GPU currently available, has already seen significant price increases and may be further inflated if the RTX 5090 is never released again.\n\nThe lack of a new high-end GeForce card could indicate a slowdown in Nvidia's development of gaming GPUs, with resources being directed towards software advancements like DLSS 5. The rumors suggest that Nvidia might release an RTX 5080 Super variant, a 24GB card that would replace the discontinued RTX 5090. However, this could lead to even higher pricing concerns due to AI usage demand. The shift in focus towards cloud gaming and DLSS may further contribute to the potential deprioritization of GeForce GPUs for PC gamers.",
