A month after its release, gamers are still struggling to find Nvidia 50 series GPU on MSRP. The low-stock paper launch of RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 had people frustrated and turning towards the RTX 5070 Ti, however, everyone was left disappointed once again with non-MSRP models, some of which cost similar to Nvidia’s pricing for RTX 5080.

MSI recently launched their models at MSRP, however, reports say gamers did not even see them in the store as per Videocardz. Instead, all people could find were new GPUs with increased prices ranging from an increase of 8% to 20%. This has led everyone to ask, what’s the point of having reassuring pricing when the cards will not be available?

Fans roast Nvidia across social media over RTX 50 series GPU

The cheapest RTX 5070 Ti from MSI is priced at $820 or Rs 71,467. The price, however, will vary according to country as the actual price for the GPU in India is over Rs 120,000 or almost $1,400. RTX 5090 which is supposed to be priced at $2,000 is either unavailable or sits with MSI’s pricing at $2400. This is more than enough to justify player frustration. Here’s what the people said -

Gamers waiting for RX 9070 XT launch

The Nvidia RTX 5070 is set to launch in the next 24 hours and people do not doubt that the card will also face similar issues with increased prices and low availability. With no proper prices and availability, people are ready to sacrifice Ray Tracing and DLSS and currently waiting for AMD GPUs.

AMD RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 will launch a day after RTX 5070 and will compete in the same generation. Reports suggest only a 2% difference in performance at $600 better RTX 5070 Ti and RX 9070 XT. If AMD manages to get these cards to people at the promised prices, it will be a huge win for Team Red.
