Here's hoping this year's tax refund hits hard and soon: Preorder listings for over three dozen Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 Series gaming laptops from Asus, HP, Lenovo, MSI, and Razer are now live across the web.
Some models' release dates weren't available at the time of writing, but the ones that were showed shipping timelines in late March to late May. Even more models are in the pipeline, according to a Nvidia press release.
The launches come a little over a month and a half after Nvidia announced its latest graphics cards with new Blackwell architecture during a CES 2025 keynote, including the RTX 5090, 5080, 5070 Ti, and 5070, promising "game-changing performance" and the ability to "power transformative AI experiences." An RTX 5060 Ti is rumored to be coming but hasn't been confirmed yet.
Among the current selection of RTX 50 Series laptops, prices range from $1,899.99 to $3,199.99 for a 5070 Ti model, $2,499.99 to $4,999.99 for a 5080 variant, and $3,999.99 to a staggering $5,999.99 for a 5090 machine. (Jump scare!) The preorder listings for the sole two 5070 laptops I spotted were still marked as "coming soon," but they'll go for $1,599.99 and $1,999.99.
As things currently stand, the average price of a newly or soon-to-be available RTX 50 Series laptop is just under $3,500. Savvy shoppers might consider deferring to a 40 Series model to save some cash, or putting their money toward a nice desktop gaming PC instead — at least until these fresh configurations start going on sale.
That said, tariffs could push their prices even higher down the road. As our sister site PCMag reported earlier this month, the online tech retailer Newegg cited President Donald Trump's 10 percent tariffs on goods from China as the reason for its price hikes on standalone RTX 5090 and 5080 graphics cards. (Nvidia itself has declined to comment on potential tariff-induced price hikes, per PCMag.) I'll be keeping a close eye on RTX 50 Series laptops' pricing and availability during and after their preorder phase.
Read on for an ongoing list of all the models that are now available for purchase in Asus, HP, and Razer's online storefronts, and at retailers like Antonline, Best Buy, B&H Photo, and Newegg.
