As of now, prices for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 have reached nearly $2,000 across U.S. retailers, with some models selling for as much as 2-3 times their original MSRP of $999. This price surge has led to the 16 GB model's disappearance from Nvidia's store, suggesting it may have been discontinued.
The RTX 5080's high price point and potential discontinuation raise questions about the future of NVIDIA's graphics card lineup. Coverage from IGN and Wccftech suggests that the RTX 5080 may be replaced by a new model with increased VRAM, but no official confirmation has been provided by NVIDIA.
