NVIDIA hikes GeForce GPU prices by up to 30% worldwide
NVIDIA announced a third price increase for its GeForce graphics cards within seven months, raising retail prices by 20 % to 30 % across the entire lineup. The hike affects both flagship models such as the RTX 5090 and mid‑range products like the RTX 5070 Ti. The surge follows a rise in DRAM memory costs after Samsung lifted prices earlier in the quarter.
In China, the RTX 5070 Ti price jumped from roughly $1,375 to $1,600, and from 9,299 yuan to 10,700 yuan. The higher costs have triggered stock shortages, with a major Chinese e‑commerce platform temporarily removing many NVIDIA cards from its catalogue and distributors in Poland, Turkey and Germany slowing sales as they adjust to the new pricing.
The price rise is expected to push consumers toward alternative GPU options from AMD or Intel and to boost secondary‑market activity for older cards.
