Asus Raises GPU Prices—Gamers Now Required to Sell Kidney, Soul, or Both

Asus Raises GPU Prices—Gamers Now Required to Sell Kidney, Soul, or Both

The GPU market has officially entered its eat-the-rich arc, and unfortunately, gamers are on the menu. Just weeks after the new Nvidia cards dropped, Asus quietly jacked up prices—not through shady resellers, but directly through their official store.

That $2,500 RTX 5090? It’s now pushing $2,750+.

Yes, from Asus themselves.

No, you don’t get a free game.

Maybe a tear-soaked invoice.

And it’s not just Nvidia cards. AMD got hit too. MSI and other sellers? Also creeping prices up like it’s a stealth mission.

At the time of writing, only two GPUs were listed at Nvidia’s suggested retail price—and they’re mid-range cards that are already almost impossible to find.

The kicker? You can’t even buy these things.

Supply is so tight, they might as well be printed on ancient scrolls and buried under a volcano.

So yeah, the GPU price hikes aren’t from crypto bros or scalpers this time. They’re coming from inside the house. And your wallet might not make it out alive.

Like. Share. And pour one out for the dream of budget PC gaming.
