An anonymous retailer reportedly listed end-of-life (EOL) dates in the first half of January 2027 for the GeForce RTX 5090 and GeForce RTX 5080 16GB, according to a message relayed by Moore’s Law Is Dead and reported by TweakTown on October 21, 2026. On October 16, NVIDIA senior vice president Jeff Fisher said the RTX 5090 had not been discontinued and NVIDIA would continue shipping it, while acknowledging constrained supply, according to 4Gamers.
What the January schedule claims
The reported schedule covers both graphics cards, but its source is an unnamed retailer. The retailer reportedly said it received its final GeForce RTX 5090 shipment in September 2026 and expected its last GeForce RTX 5080 16GB batch by the end of October. Those details concern that retailer’s shipments and expectations.
For earlier U.S. retail context, NeoTeo’s September 14 snapshot of RTX 5090 prices and stock recorded listings and inventory at that time.
Fisher’s statement concerned the GeForce RTX 5090
Fisher’s October 16 remarks addressed the GeForce RTX 5090: he said it had not been discontinued and NVIDIA would continue shipping it despite supply constraints. The statement does not address the reported GeForce RTX 5080 16GB schedule.
Fisher also said the RTX 5090 chip has other variants, without naming them.
