The daily median price of a new GeForce RTX 5080 at tracked US shops was $2,224.50 on October 25. That is 34 percent above the $1,659 median of October 6 and 2.2 times the card’s $999 launch MSRP. All figures are US new retail, tax excluded, from captures through October 25.
The median rose in steps from early October while the daily capture count fell from four to one or two
The RTX 5080 held between $1,590 and $1,680 from late August until October 6, with four captures on most days. Since October 10 every day rests on one or two captures, and the daily median has run between $1,824 and $2,254 from October 16. The October 25 figure is the midpoint of two captures, $2,099.99 at Best Buy and $2,349. A median of one or two prices follows whichever shops had stock that day, so the exact level moves more than the card’s real price does.
The tracker’s 14-day change is +25.0 percent and its 30-day change +12.5 percent. The 90-day median is still $1,600 across 112 captures from four sources, with a range of $1,288 to $2,349, so it describes where the card sat before the climb rather than where it sits now.
Of ten other US GPUs with a 14-day change, none moved more than 5.0 percent

The RTX 5070’s daily median went from $857 on October 21 to $929 on October 25 on one or two captures a day, and its latest capture, $948.98, is also 13 percent above its median.
