(Image credit: Nvidia) Nvidia's hugely popular RTX 5090 Founders Edition has been restocked in the UK at its MSRP price of £1,799. This is hundreds of pounds less than the asking price of the same silicon by add-in board partners. If you take a quick look at retailer Scan, their next-cheapest model comes in at £2,059 for the Zotac RTX 5090 Solid. That's a saving of over £200, and you get all the benefits of bragging to your friends about having one of the best-looking Founders Edition cards Nvidia has made to date. The GPU is available directly from Nvidia Marketplace .
This is bound to sell out quickly, and these cards are not restocked very often, which makes it a minor miracle that Nvidia has magically found some behind its data center-shaped sofa in time for Cyber Monday.
The GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition is one of the best-looking 5090s around. Sporting a gorgeously slim dual-slot design, this powerhouse of a GPU is a decent degree faster than anything else out there on the market. Since these cards are rarely restocked in the UK, be sure to grab one before they disappear.
Based on TSMC's 4N node, the RTX 5090 has over 21760 CUDA cores, with a clock speed of up to 2407MHz, and is equipped with 32GB of GDDR7 memory across a 512-bit memory interface. This titanic GPU can demand up to 575W of total board power, meaning that you'll have to reach for an adequately powerful power supply of at least 1000W or more to run things comfortably, as the transient spikes of the RTX 5090 Founders Edition can spike up to 659W, as we show in our testing over at Tom's Hardware Premium .
