ZOTAC Cancels RTX 5090 Orders and Increases GPU Prices Due to “System Error”

Concerns Arise Over ZOTAC’s Pricing Practices Amid Order Cancellations

Recent reports indicate that ZOTAC, much like Corsair, is canceling orders without adequate justification while simultaneously raising prices significantly on its RTX 5090 graphics cards. This aligns with previous allegations against Corsair, which was said to adjust prices in real-time, cancel orders, and then resell products at higher rates.

While it is understood that the overall market for graphics processing units (GPUs) has been affected by soaring DRAM prices, customers expect the companies they purchase from to honor the stated prices. Users have reported that ZOTAC has increased the cost of GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs by approximately 20-22%, resulting in price hikes nearly reaching $500 across different models.

As of now, the ZOTAC store is undergoing maintenance, raising questions about the ongoing changes. Screenshots confirmed by Videocardz have shown the recent price increases for the RTX 5090 SOLID OC and RTX 5090 AMP Extreme Infinity models. Reports suggest that orders placed the night before were abruptly canceled, coinciding with the subsequent price increases.

We await an official response from ZOTAC regarding these troubling trends. In the meantime, prospective buyers are urged to exercise caution and refrain from making hasty purchases through the company’s official store.
