Nvidia Reportedly Redirects RTX 5090 Chips to RTX Pro Line, Impacting Consumer GPU Supply

Nvidia has reportedly ceased allocating new GB202 silicon to its GeForce RTX 5090 consumer graphics cards, instead redirecting these chips exclusively to its more profitable RTX Pro professional and AI-focused lineup. While unconfirmed by Nvidia, this move, if true, would significantly squeeze the supply of the $1,999 gaming card and highlights a strategic shift towards the lucrative AI infrastructure market.
