The NVIDIA RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 went on sale overnight at Australian retailers and sold out instantly.
At the time of writing Mwave, PCcasegear, BPCTech and JW Tech are all sold out of their entire range of 5080 and 5090 GPUs with no estimation on when stock might be available again.
Pricing wasn’t as bad expected with there actually being partner cards available for the AU price of the FE with the 5080 available for $2,020 AUD and the 5090 available for $4,040 AUD.
There’s a few 5090s being scalped on eBay for as much as $7,000, but not as many as you’d expect given it sold out so quickly so hopefully the people that truly wanted cards got them.
The RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti are next to release, but don’t yet have a release date.
