The first salvo of RTX 50 series GPU will arrive in January, with pricing starting at $549 for the RTX 5070 and topping out at an eye-watering $1,999 for the flagship RTX 5090. In between those are the $749 RTX 5070 Ti and $999 RTX 5080. Laptop variants of the desktop GPUs will follow in March, with pricing there starting at $1,299 for 5070-equipped PCs.

It'll buy us about 8 more years. At this rate, the TGP is increasing at about 10% per year:

3090: Late 2020, 350W 4090: Late 2022, 450W 5090: Early 2025, 575W

Therefore, around 2037, a single 90-tier GPU will pop a 110V breaker, and by 2045, it will pop a 220V breaker too.
