To celebrate Hogwarts Legacy integrating DLSS 5, NVIDIA has launched a giveaway with a custom-themed reference edition RTX 5090 graphics card as the prize, sparking discussion once again.
This card features exclusive game-themed artwork. NVIDIA estimates its value at $2599 (approximately RMB 18,655), with $600 (approximately RMB 4,307) being the premium for this themed appearance.
This event also indirectly reveals one piece of information: NVIDIA still has RTX 5090 graphics cards in stock. However, it is currently very difficult to buy this card at the official suggested retail price of $1999. For ordinary gamers, winning the lottery might be easier than buying the card at its original price.
NVIDIA had previously denied rumors that the RTX 5090 was discontinued, but market feedback has not been optimistic. Moreover, this model has completely disappeared from NVIDIA's official US online store, and key partners have revealed that they can no longer order new GB202 cores and matching memory packages from NVIDIA.
It is worth mentioning that the prizes for many of NVIDIA's recent promotional events have been RTX 5080s, so it is relatively rare for the RTX 5090 to reappear as a prize this time.
However, this move does not indicate the actual production volume of the card, nor does it mean that subsequent retail supply will improve.
The event will run until November 12. Participants must comment #RTXON under NVIDIA's designated social media posts. Each person can participate only once, and there will be only one winner.
