RTX 5080 Vanishes From NVIDIA's US Marketplace Two Weeks After the RTX 5090
NVIDIA's US Marketplace no longer lists the GeForce RTX 5080. The GPU filter on the store's graphics card page now tops out at the RTX 5070 Ti, followed by the RTX 5070, RTX 5060 Ti, RTX 5060, and RTX 5050, with partner RTX 5080 models gone as well. The same thing happened to the RTX 5090 about two weeks ago and, barring a brief cameo at $5,599, the card still hasn't returned. NVIDIA has since denied that the RTX 5090 is discontinued, though it hasn't said anything about the RTX 5080 yet. Oddly enough, its RTX 5080 product page still says "Starting at $999."
The removal seems limited to the US for now. NVIDIA's UK Marketplace still has 13 RTX 5080 listings and two RTX 5090 cards. Of course, a missing listing could simply mean there's no stock left, since the RTX 5080 already costs close to $2,000 at US retailers, roughly double its MSRP. That leaves the RTX 5070 Ti as the fastest card on NVIDIA's US store, and it isn't cheap either. The seven listings there range from $1,269.99 to $1,499.99, well above its $749 launch price.Of course, this move is not really surprising. We recently covered a new report claiming NVIDIA is moving up the launch of a 24 GB RTX 5080 to December or January, and phasing out the 16 GB model in China. A leaker also claimed earlier this month that NVIDIA has January discontinuation dates set for the 16 GB card. None of this is officially confirmed, but it looks like US buyers looking for an RTX 5080 16 GB will have to rely on third-party retailers for now.

maybe we should start a go fund me for Jensen so he can start over
They keep twisting everything. Lying. Once they say not EOL, then, the RTX 5080 disappears. Enough of this.Or they are just lazy ass because GPU's dont make the same money as data centers.
When we don't own GPU, it will be more money flowing to datacenters. Unless someone creates a gaming gpu that is 1/4 of performance of RTX5070 ti at least.
More expensive GPU ---> only datacenters buy them
More datacenter share in computer gaming market ---> more cloud gaming
More cloud gaming income ---> more expensive GPU
---
Actually its more efficient to do cloud gaming because its more efficient to render games of multiple players in 1 GPU as they share some of data. But still I would like to have my GPU in my computer.
Step 2. ?????
Step 3. PROFIT!
I think if we really get a market "correction", a much bigger than the recent hiccups that still leave many big players in the green (as their market value, not as their imaginary revenue in this circle jerk of endlessly ordering and building without customer) there will be a big push from AI people, who are now basically national policy makers, to burn all the bridges! What are you going to go back to if AI fails? We don't have people with powerful PC's, workstations any more, we don't have software running locally, and we don't have the employees capable of working like the old times, we let them all go! The only solution is to invent money to fuel the very hungry caterpillar!
Now governments are broke, money is worthless and people are upset as a default.
Besides Money printer going BRRRR won't help there not being enough energy to power datacenters.
And there's plenty of energy, once you rise the price so the meatbags struggle to afford it.
