Nvidia has dismissed reports that it is discontinuing its flagship GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, with company executive Jeff Fisher confirming that the hardware will continue shipping, according to Wccftech. Dexerto also reported that Nvidia rejected rumors claiming the card was being scrapped to redirect manufacturing focus toward artificial intelligence hardware.[5][4]

The company's response comes after the graphics card vanished from store shelves and had its product pages removed across multiple retailers, sparking concerns about the lineup's future, as reported by Tom's Hardware and Neowin. Although Nvidia confirmed the card is still in production, supply remains constrained with no timeline offered for improvement, and VideoCardz noted that buyers will struggle to locate a unit at its $1,999 price point.[1][2][3][4]
