At least one of the upcoming RTX 40 series cards is expected to appear before 2022 is out. And it feels more and more possible that will be the series-leading model. With that in mind, if you want to know where to buy the RTX 4090, we’ll have that info here.
Below we’ve pulled together the retailers we expect will be selling the card. And we’ll be updating with on-sale info as soon as we have it.
The graphics cards market is sure for a big shuffle this year, with RTX 4000, (hopefully) Intel Arc cards, and AMD’s RDNA 3 cards purported to arrive. That may make picking the best graphics card tricky when new generation products arrive.
If you’re set on buying an RTX 4090, you’ll know you need or want it for a specific reason. But, if you’re still making your mind up, it’s also sensible to consider what you may need.
It’s likely you could pick up a prior generation RTX 3090 for less. As reported by WePC in July, GPU prices are already dropping.
Nonetheless, below are the links you’ll want to keep an eye on in buying an RTX 4090, and some the key additional information too.
RTX 4000 series cards
The RTX 4000 series SKUs we’re expecting this year would provide updates to the three key staples of the RTX 3000 series. While we’re expecting it to be the first to release, and available to buy, the RTX 4090 should be followed by familiarly named cards.
- RTX 4090
- RTX 4080
- RTX 4070
RTX 4090 release date
While the RTX 4090 release date is yet to be confirmed, it’s widely believed it will arrive first. It’s also thought that it will launch in October, with a Q4 launch.
Previously thought to be arriving in September, the 4000 series may have been knocked back a month due to delays.
Having said that, with the RTX 3070 launching in October of 2022, NVidia does have previous for an October release. If you’re looking to buy an RTX 4090, we’d keep October in mind.
RTX 4090 price
Based on the pricing of the RTX 3090 at launch, which was $1,499 we’re expecting a price of at least that for anyone looking to buy an RTX 4090. It could well be more though, and as much as $1,999.
Given the performance of the RTX 4090, leaks suggest it could be 2.2x that of an RTX 3090 (at least in some scenarios). That generational improvement adds value, but it may also add a little bit of a premium price-wise.
