⚡️🎮 NEW - The RTX 5090 is Nvidia’s flagship gaming GPU, but AI companies are buying them in huge quantities for servers.
Reports show RTX 5090 cards purchased by the pallet, despite prices over $5,000 each.
Compared with Nvidia’s $16,000 RTX 6000 Pro, a 5090 with 32GB of VRAM looks like a bargain for AI workloads.
We are competing with AI companies that can buy these cards in bulk, making an already expensive GPU even harder to get.
We need to stop calling the RTX 5090 a “gaming GPU”
