This $2699 MSI RTX 5090 is the cheapest you'll find right now
RTX 5090s are all marked up, but you don't have to spend $3000+ to get one
At $1999 and up, no RTX 5090 can be described as cheap. But we've been searching far and wide this holiday deals season for air-cooled versions of 5090s that aren't trading for $3000 or more.
If you're still trying to get the RTX 5090 upgrade you've been dreaming of before prices potentially rise even more, B&H has your back with MSI's GeForce RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC card. At $2699, this is the least costly RTX 5090 we've seen anywhere in the post-Black Friday rush.
At this point, the RTX 5090 needs no introduction. If you need the highest gaming performance possible from a GeForce card to push a 4K monitor even with RT effects maxed and ultra settings dialed in, this card is your ticket.
No RTX 5090 comes cheap, but this $2699 MSI card is the least costly you'll find in the post-Black Friday rush. Just make sure your case and PSU are ready to handle this quad-slot hyper-GPU.
As our performance tests demonstrate, the RTX 5090 remains the fastest gaming graphics card on Earth, and nothing else comes close. AMD's RX 9070 XT only trades blows with the RTX 5070 Ti, and from there on up, it's Nvidia all the way.




MSI's Gaming Trio OC card puts a relatively reserved spin on an RTX 5090, with its massive quad-slot cooler, spiffy RGB LED accents, a brushed-metal backplate with MSI's signature dragon motif, and a stealthy black-and-gray finish. The company even includes a handy GPU support to prevent that massive cooler from sagging and spoiling your build's tidy looks (and stressing other pricey components).
Every "cheap" 5090 sells out quickly, so if you've been waiting for a relatively affordable shot at this card, act fast.
