Reports point to another round of GeForce RTX 50-series price increases in November 2026, led by higher factory or distributor costs at Colorful in China. The reported hikes reach about $500 for the RTX 5090 D V2, but they are not an Nvidia-wide MSRP change—and shoppers should not assume every retailer will pass them on dollar for dollar.

What the reports say |
| RTX 5090 D V2 |
2,200–3,300 yuan, or roughly $330–$500 |
The largest reported adjustment; the upper end is close to $500. 3 7 17 |
| RTX 5080 |
2,500–2,800 yuan, or roughly $380–$450 |
A substantial reported factory or distributor increase. 7 17 21 |
| RTX 5070 Ti |
About 1,000 yuan, or roughly $150 |
Reported as a Colorful price adjustment. 7 11 17 |
| RTX 5060 |
About $30 |
Reported as a smaller increase, including a possible Galax/KFA2 adjustment. 11 21 |
These figures come from reports about partner pricing, especially Colorful’s China-market costs. They are not a single confirmed schedule covering every RTX 50 card or brand. Reports also name Galax/KFA2 as preparing adjustments, but the available details do not establish that it has implemented all the same increases.

When could shoppers see higher prices?
TechPowerUp reported that increases were scheduled for the week of November 3, while Wccftech described partner adjustments rolling out during November. That suggests changes could feed into retailer pricing over the month, but the reports do not establish one date—or one final price—for shoppers in every market.

The distinction matters: a higher factory or distributor cost can put upward pressure on retail prices, but the amount and timing passed on to buyers may differ by seller and region. The reported partner increases should therefore be treated as a warning about possible pricing pressure, not a promise that every listed GPU will rise by the converted dollar figure.
How this fits the wider RTX 5090 price surge
The reported partner hikes arrive amid already elevated RTX 5090 retail prices. TechSpot’s November 2 pricing update said the card had risen 32% in a month and was averaging $7,240 on its normalized measure; separate coverage of the survey reported a U.S. price of $9,400, about 370% above the $1,999 launch MSRP. These are retail-market figures, not the same thing as a new partner cost increase.

That distinction also helps put the “up to $500” headline in context. It describes a reported upstream change on particular models, not the full gap between a card’s launch price and what a shopper might encounter in a tight retail market. The supplied reporting attributes the pressure in part to demand outstripping supply, but it does not show how much of any final retail markup comes from partner costs, scarcity or seller pricing.

What about AMD and Intel?
AMD is also the subject of separate November price-hike reporting: TechPowerUp reported that Radeon GPU and GDDR6 kit increases were planned, and cited survey figures showing the RX 9060 XT 16GB up 17% from September and the RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT up 12%.

The available reports do not establish a comparable November price announcement for Intel GPUs. The Nvidia and AMD reports should not be taken as evidence of an Intel increase.
