There is no way 5090 will be launching at same price. The AI craze will be even worse and it will be banned in China from the start.

Good luck to the waiting for 5090 camp.

The AI craze will be even worse and it will be banned in China from the start, leading to higher cost.

A ban in China creates higher supply, reducing prices.

Except the cards were being made in China. You might want to look at any 4090 and see if you can find one without a Foxconn label.

That's a good point, and will disrupt supply in the short term. However Nvidia has a LOT of manufacturers all over the world. Tooling up for more GPU production takes months, not years. The hard part is the processor. Nvidia has had a lot of time to prepare for this. I would be surprised if they weren't already able to plug any supply gaps.
