Walmart's GeForce Week promotion briefly listed MSI's GeForce RTX 5090 32 GB Gaming Trio OC at $4,299.99, selling out after roughly 10,000 shoppers added it to their carts. The price sits about $2,300 above NVIDIA's $1,999 MSRP, a premium of roughly 115 percent. Despite appearing steep, this price undercuts secondary market listings that have reportedly reached $9,000 to $10,000.

The rapid sell-through highlights how tight the RTX 5090 market has become, with AI firms reportedly purchasing stock in bulk before it reaches gaming retail, alongside general Blackwell supply limits. The MSI Gaming Trio OC variant features 21,760 CUDA cores, 32 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 512-bit bus, a 2,482 MHz boost clock, and a 575 W power draw. With NVIDIA yet to announce a successor, consumers have very little room to negotiate on price for the fastest consumer GPU.
