Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs: Preorder Guide and Reviews

The highly anticipated Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards are now available for preorder, starting January 30th at 6 AM PT. Leading the charge are the top-tier RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, with the mid-range RTX 5070 and 5070 Ti following in February. Be warned: stock is expected to be extremely limited, with potential sellouts within minutes due to high demand and the prevalence of bots. Pre-built PCs featuring the RTX 5090 might offer a more readily available, albeit pricier, alternative.

Where to Preorder:

Securing an RTX 5090 or 5080 requires swift action. Check each retailer listed above; purchase from the first that allows checkout. Even with stock shown, speed is crucial.

Retailer Breakdown:

• Best Buy: Often a good option for Founder's Edition cards, with relatively fast shipping. Inventory varies by region.
• Newegg: Largest selection of AIB (third-party manufacturer) cards. Check for bundle deals if standalone cards are unavailable. Buy directly from Newegg, not marketplace vendors, for warranty protection.
• Nvidia Store: Founder's Edition cards are usually scarce here. Past launches have included invites for registered users.
• Amazon: Difficult to navigate; prioritize purchases directly from Amazon, avoiding marketplace vendors.
• Adorama & B&H Photo: Carry AIB cards and pre-built PCs, but shipping times may be longer.
• Micro Center: Best in-store option for local customers; expect lines.

IGN Reviews:

Our reviews highlight significant AI performance boosts (DLSS 4) but relatively modest improvements in traditional gaming performance compared to the RTX 40 series. The upgrade is most compelling for users with older hardware.
