NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 & RTX 5080 Acer Predator Orion 7000 Pricing Leaked: $1250 Discrepancy Disclosed

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 Pricing Unveiled: Insider Insights

Recent leaks have shed light on the anticipated prices for NVIDIA’s next-generation GPUs, the GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, integrated into the Acer Predator Orion Desktop PC lineup. Although the preliminary price difference appears significant, it might not reflect the actual costs when purchasing the GPUs separately once they launch.

Acer Predator Orion 7000 Price Breakdown

The RTX 5090-powered Acer gaming system, equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 200S processor, has a starting price of approximately $4900, while its RTX 5080 counterpart is priced around $3650. This information has emerged through leaks, notably from Notebookcheck.

According to a recent listing by the German retailer OTTO, the Predator Orion 7000 with the Intel Core Ultra 7 265K, 32 GB DDR5 memory, 1TB of storage, and the RTX 5090 carries a price of €4,699 (approx. $4900). This figure includes a 20% VAT, meaning the net cost for the North American market would be around $4080. Conversely, the configuration featuring the RTX 5080 is priced at €3,499 (about $3649), resulting in an estimated actual cost of $3040.

Price Variability and Market Predictions

The differential amount for the two configurations stands at an impressive $1040 when excluding VAT and approximately $1250 based on current German pricing. However, this does not guarantee that the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 will be conclusively $1000-$1250 more expensive than the RTX 5080. Recent trends suggest that we might witness a more considerable price gap than what was observed between the RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 generations.

Understanding Pricing Estimates

For those speculating about the pricing of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 and 5080, one approach involves deducting the costs of other components within the Acer Predator systems from the total price. Another method is analyzing the price increase relative to the previous generation of desktop models featuring the RTX 4090 and 4080. Such calculations may suggest a few hundred dollars’ increase for the RTX 5090 over its predecessor, the 4090, yet do not guarantee accurate pricing for either of the new RTX 50 series graphics cards.

Upcoming Launch and Availability

The precise MSRPs for these GPUs across North America and Europe will remain uncertain until their official announcement at the CES 2025 event. Industry enthusiasts can expect to see upgraded Acer Predator Orion 7000 desktops hitting the shelves shortly thereafter.
