Nvidia offers RTX 50-series GPUs at MSRP amid market scarcity

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Nvidia is offering its RTX 50-series GPUs at their original MSRP during QuakeCon 2026, a move that highlights the current high prices and scarcity in the PC building market. These graphics cards, launched in early 2025, quickly sold out and have since seen prices significantly exceed MSRP due to memory shortages and increased component costs. The availability at QuakeCon is a limited-time offer, serving as a draw for gamers seeking to upgrade their systems at a reasonable price. AI
