While we see multiple reports indicating the discontinuation of the flagship Blackwell GeForce GPU, NVIDIA, on the other hand, denies such reports.
Multiple Taiwanese publications have reported NVIDIA's refutation of reports that the RTX 5090 is being discontinued. If you have been following us, you must be aware that a few days ago, there were reports suggesting NVIDIA has ended the supply of the GeForce RTX 5090, the flagship Blackwell GeForce GPU, as it aims to supply the GB202 die for the RTX PRO series.

The reports suggest that NVIDIA will replace the RTX 5090 with the RTX 5080 24 GB as the new flagship RTX 50 series GPU. However, NVIDIA didn't comment on these reports until now, when NVIDIA's senior vice president refuted the rumors. NVIDIA's SVP, Jeff Fisher, reportedly told the Taiwanese media that the reports about the RTX 5090 discontinuation aren't true and that the GPU remains an extremely important core product.
Moreover, he said that the RTX 5090 will continue to ship, refuting the EOL reports. However, Jeff also acknowledged that there are severe supply constraints. The statement appears to highlight the worsening availability of the RTX 5090, which has already reached $5000+ in most regions.
Jeff's statement about the RTX 5090 supply was quoted by 4Gamers and CNA (Taiwanese Central News Agency). The same was published by SJTV (Shin Ji Satellite TV).
As per the reports, Jeff Fisher came to Taiwan to attend the RTX Spark Launch party in Taipei, where he gave his remarks on the RTX 5090 rumors. Jeff reportedly also highlighted the importance of NVIDIA's Gaming and GeForce business and said that there would be no NVIDIA today without this segment.
If what Jeff said regarding the RTX 5090 is true, then we need answers as to why the RTX 5090 suddenly disappeared from NVIDIA's marketplace.
Also, major retailers such as Micro Center removed the GPU from their shelves. Is it that NVIDIA is suddenly resuming production due to backlash? Or was there really a disruption in the supply chain due to shortages? I think we will know soon.
