Nvidia reportedly halts RTX 5090 production for AI chips, gaming flagship may change

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Nvidia is reportedly halting production of its GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, with the GB202 chip now exclusively allocated to data center and professional GPUs. This move is seen as a strategic decision to prioritize higher-margin AI and professional visualization products over consumer gaming hardware. The RTX 5080 24GB is rumored to become the new flagship gaming card, while existing RTX 5090 stock is expected to deplete over time, potentially driving up prices for the remaining units. AI

IMPACT This shift prioritizes high-margin AI hardware, potentially impacting consumer GPU availability and pricing.
