NVIDIA Denies Reports of RTX 5090 Discontinuation; Jeff Fisher Confirms Flagship GPU Will Continue Shipping
While we see several reports indicating the discontinuation of the flagship Blackwell GeForce GPU, NVIDIA, on the other hand, denies these reports.
NVIDIA’s Jeff Fisher Says RTX 5090 Not Shelved After Acknowledging Supply Constraints
Several Taiwanese publications have reported NVIDIA’s refutation of reports that the RTX 5090 will be discontinued. If you are following us, you should know that a few days ago, reports suggested that NVIDIA has ended the supply of the GeForce RTX 5090, the flagship Blackwell GeForce GPU, as it aims to supply the GB202 chip for the RTX PRO series.
Reports suggest that NVIDIA will replace the RTX 5090 with the RTX 5080 24GB as the new flagship RTX 50 series GPU. However, NVIDIA has not commented on these reports until now, when NVIDIA’s senior vice president refuted the rumors. NVIDIA Senior Vice President Jeff Fisher reportedly told Taiwanese media that reports of the RTX 5090 being discontinued were not true and that the GPU remained a product. extremely important commodity.
Furthermore, he said that the RTX 5090 will continue to shiprefuting EOL reports. However, Jeff also recognized that there is severe supply constraints. The statement appears to highlight the growing availability of the RTX 5090, which has already reached over $5,000 in most regions.
Jeff’s statement regarding the supply of the RTX 5090 was cited by 4Gamers and CNA (Taiwanese Central News Agency). The same was released by SJTV (Shin Ji Satellite TV).
According to reports, Jeff Fisher came to Taiwan to attend the RTX Spark launch party in Taipei, where he made his remarks on the RTX 5090 rumors. Jeff also reportedly highlighted the importance of NVIDIA’s Gaming and GeForce businesses and said that there would be no NVIDIA today without this segment.
If what Jeff said regarding the RTX 5090 is true, then we need answers as to why the RTX 5090 suddenly disappeared from NVIDIA’s market.
Additionally, major retailers such as Micro Center have removed the GPU from their shelves. Is NVIDIA suddenly resuming production due to backlash? Or has there really been a disruption in the supply chain due to shortages? I think we’ll find out soon.
