Nvidia Sells Scarce RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs at GTC 2025 via Food Truck

2,000 units of Nvidia's RTX 50-series GPUs are available exclusively to GTC attendees at MSRP, highlighting the ongoing global scarcity of these cards.

• Nvidia is selling 1,000 RTX 5080s and 1,000 RTX 5090s at their MSRP of $999 and $1,999 respectively, exclusively to attendees of GTC 2025.
• The GPUs are sold via a food truck in flash sale bursts, with announcements made on Nvidia's official social media accounts.
• Purchases are restricted to one card per person, and buyers must pick up their GPUs the same day from the South Hall main entrance.
• Global availability of the RTX 50-series GPUs remains extremely limited due to Nvidia's prioritization of datacenter GPU production over consumer models.
• The scarcity has led to inflated prices in retail and secondary markets, creating opportunities for competitors like AMD to attract consumers with more readily available GPUs.
