Nvidia senior vice president Jeff Fisher reportedly said the RTX 5090 remains in production and will continue shipping despite constrained supply, Tom's Hardware reported, citing Taiwanese accounts of a post-event interview.

The outlet's retailer checks found third-party Amazon listings at about $8,500 and Newegg listings at about $7,300. Best Buy had no cards on offer, while the GPU was absent from Nvidia's marketplace and Micro Center. Nvidia did not respond to the outlet's request for comment.
