NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - (PRE)ORDER DISCUSSION **NO COMPETITOR HINTING**

It would be selling at a loss in the US but it would be subsidised by the rest of us. And it's probably AIBs that are more affected than this than Nvidia themselves, depending where the FE cards are assembled. Companies will have a choice between lowering demand significantly in the US by increasing prices there, or spreading out the demand loss a bit across multiple locations and subsidiaries. I think we will have to see what happens here.

Selling at a loss in the US would be very bad for Nvidia. Trying to "subsidise" that by increasing prices in other regions would make things even worse. If Nvidia could get more revenue by increasing prices in those regions, it would have done so. Assuming Nvidia has got its sums and market research right, raising prices in those regions would actually lower overall revenue.

It's not widely appreciated just how much tariffs would hurt the US. Even Trump's narrative for them is that they will cause short term pain, but that this will be offset once companies move manufacturing to the US (which isn't very likely on a large scale).

Good thing - My phone has been pinging quite a few times today for 5090 drops.
It definitely seems that more and more are arriving.

Just retailers are scalping the cards too which is the problem - But then they sell out instantly at £2600 for cards which were meant to be MSRP.

Half the time is the same card going back into stock on a failed/cancelled purchase. In addition to which each drop seems to be getting increasingly expensive

I've been getting this with an Asus somebody's trying to sell for around £3050 or so on a very big competitor. I was getting notifications every 20 minutes for a good chunk of the evening.

Odd that the 5090FE for £5999 at the other shop isn't selling. Been 3 days now. Maybe the market is settling down

5090s above £3k don't seem to be moving fast now and above £3.5k seem to be moving very slowly, if at all. Even the hilarious £4k pre-builds with crap old parts and a 5090 have had to step up to the 12900KF for the CPU... that 10500K just wasn't cutting it at £4k.
 
Well it's certianly a win to Overclockers on securing stock of Zotac 5090s! Not a single shipment from their queue competitor and from what I've seen Overclockers have received two shipments of 5090s from them since launch.
