January 2025 was like PC nerd Christmas.
Or it was supposed to be.

The closest most of us will get to an RTX 5090 anytime soon is this picture.
But then NVIDIA launched theRTX 5090andRTX 5080, and it all went horribly wrong.
Online stock for the two graphics cards went almost instantly.
Now, Overclockers UK (viaTom’s Hardware) has delivered the bleak news.

The RTX 5080 situation isn’t as bad, but it’s still not great.
Is it that old friend “being first” or just plain arrogance and disregard for the consumers?
At least for the immediate future.
