NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 series of "Blackwell" graphics cards has seen significant price increases over the past few months, especially between July and August. On Newegg, the median listed price for each model shifted noticeably.

The entry‑level RTX 5050 moved from $300 in June to $315 in August, a 5% rise. The RTX 5060 jumped from $370 in July to $470 in August, a 27% increase of $100.

The 8GB edition of the RTX 5060 Ti rose from $470 to $530 (13%). The RTX 5060 Ti 16GB leapt from $570 to $805, a 39% jump. The RTX 5070 climbed 36% from $660 to $900, while the RTX 5070 Ti stayed at $1100. The RTX 5080 grew modestly 3% from $1462 to $1500, and the flagship RTX 5090 rose 9% from $4300 to $4700.

Compared with MSRP, prices now sit far above NVIDIA’s official list. The RTX 5090 median price is a staggering 135% above MSRP, largely due to memory‑manufacturer price hikes passed to board partners.
