RTX 5080 Vanishes From NVIDIA's US Marketplace Two Weeks After the RTX 5090 - TechPowerUp
NVIDIA has removed the GeForce RTX 5080 from its US marketplace, following the disappearance of the RTX 5090 two weeks earlier.
NVIDIA's US Marketplace no longer lists the GeForce RTX 5080, with the GPU filter now topping out at the RTX 5070 Ti. Partner RTX 5080 models have also disappeared from the store, mirroring what happened to the RTX 5090 about two weeks ago. Despite the removal, NVIDIA's RTX 5080 product page still shows a "Starting at $999" price point.
Limited to US Market
The removal appears to be confined to the United States, as NVIDIA's UK Marketplace still lists 13 RTX 5080 models and two RTX 5090 cards. The absence could simply indicate stock issues, as US retailers are already charging nearly $2,000 for the RTX 5080—double its manufacturer suggested retail price.
With the RTX 5080 gone, the RTX 5070 Ti now stands as the fastest card available on NVIDIA's US store, priced between $1,269.99 and $1,499.99—significantly higher than its $749 launch price.
Possible Product Refresh
The move isn't entirely unexpected, as recent reports suggest NVIDIA is planning to launch a 24 GB version of the RTX 5080 in December or January while phasing out the 16 GB model in China. A leaker also claimed NVIDIA has set January discontinuation dates for the 16 GB card, though none of this has been officially confirmed.
For now, US consumers seeking the RTX 5080 16 GB will need to rely on third-party retailers, as NVIDIA's direct store no longer offers the card.
