The RTX 5080 price bottoms out at €2,129.95 at LDLC, according to the site’s “rtx 5080” search, recorded on November 9, 2026 at 11:21 p.m. Paris time. The recommended French price of the RTX 5090, the card above it, is €2,099. The RTX 5080’s was €1,059: the RTX 5080 price seen on shelves is more than double that.
Three dated readings serve as the basis: the one from Hardware & Co on November 3, the one from Pause Hardware on November 4 at around 5 p.m. Paris time, and ours, taken from the public pages of LDLC in read-only mode. A listed price is not a delivered card: several models are out of stock or “ships within 7 days.”
Between €1,800 and €2,150 depending on the shop and the day
On November 3, Hardware & Co searched nine shops or groups for the cheapest RTX 5080 in stock, excluding third-party marketplace sellers. FNAC (€1,799.99) and Infomax (€1,799) are the cheapest, the LDLC group the most expensive at €2,049.95. The next day, Pause Hardware recorded €1,999.99 at Grosbill, €2,049.95 at LDLC and €2,116 at Alternate. Our November 9 reading covers only LDLC: the Grosbill, Alternate and Amazon.fr pages could not be read without a browser.
| Reading | Shop | Cheapest card | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| November 3 (Hardware & Co) | FNAC | PNY Triple Fan OC | €1,799.99 |
| November 3 (Hardware & Co) | Infomax | Zotac Solid OC White | €1,799.00 |
| November 3 (Hardware & Co) | LDLC and group | MSI Gaming Trio OC | €2,049.95 |
| November 4, 5 p.m. (Pause Hardware) | Grosbill | not specified | €1,999.99 |
| November 4, 5 p.m. (Pause Hardware) | Alternate | not specified | €2,116 |
| November 9, 11:21 p.m. (our reading) | LDLC, lowest price, “ships within 7 days” | Gigabyte GAMING OC 16G | €2,129.95 |
| November 9, 11:21 p.m. (our reading) | LDLC, in stock | Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC SFF 16G (“only 1 left in stock”) | €2,149.95 |
The methods differ from one row to the next: the lowest in stock at Hardware & Co, the lowest announced as in stock at Pause Hardware, the lowest listed, out-of-stock cards included, in our reading. The RTX 5080 price on shelves is therefore best read as a range, not a single rate.
RTX 5080 price at LDLC: +€380 in 57 days
Pause Hardware picks up a tracker from Materiel-Gamer: the lowest price listed by LDLC was €1,749.95 on September 13 and €1,849.95 on October 9. On November 4 it reached €1,969.95 on an out-of-stock card, with the first available one at €2,049.95. The same measurement, repeated on November 9, gives €2,129.95, which is €380 more in 57 days (+22%).
| Date | RTX 5080, lowest listed price | RTX 5070 Ti, lowest listed price |
|---|---|---|
| September 13 | €1,749.95 | €1,349.95 |
| October 9 | €1,849.95 | €1,479.95 |
| November 4 | €1,969.95 (out of stock) | €1,479.95 |
| November 9, 11:23 p.m. | €2,129.95 (“ships within 7 days”) | €1,619.95 (in stock) |
The RTX 5070 Ti, which stayed stable at LDLC from October 9 to November 4, has moved too: +€140 (+9.5%) in five days. For anyone tracking the RTX 5080 price or that of a card in this tier, the readings confirm three things: the gap between shops reached €250 on the same date on November 3, stock is thin, and no source expects a drop. Comparing several shops on the same day is the only lever the figures support.
Why prices are rising, and what nobody has proven
Jeff Fisher, senior vice president of Nvidia’s consumer division, acknowledged limited production capacity in Taipei on October 16 while denying that the RTX 5090 was being discontinued (our October 20 article details his remarks, based on TechPowerUp). Among the warning signs was the card’s disappearance from Nvidia’s online store, noted in that same article. On the partner side, the anonymous account of a manufacturer that can no longer order its chip and memory kit is detailed in our November 1 article on the Nvidia partner that can no longer order its RTX 5090s. For the RTX 5080, Hardware & Co mentions rumors that the card is being phased out, with no named source.
| Claim | Who makes it | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Limited production, RTX 5090 not discontinued | Nvidia, Jeff Fisher, October 16 | Stated by Nvidia |
| A partner can no longer order the RTX 5090 kit | Anonymous manufacturer, via der8auer | Not corroborated |
| Colorful and Galax price increases in China: €330 to €370 on the RTX 5080 | Channel Gate, relayed by Pause Hardware | Secondhand, unverified |
| Memory shortage and copper prices | TechPowerUp, cited by Pause Hardware | Put forward, not quantified |
The last point applies to France with caution: Pause Hardware states that these increases are price adjustments at partners, not a new public Nvidia price list, and that there is no guarantee they carry over identically. None of these elements alone proves what is pushing the RTX 5080 price up at LDLC, or whether the rise will continue.
Nvidia stock: an internal investigation, shares down 4.27%
On November 8, Nvidia’s board announced an independent investigation into the ties between its CEO, Jensen Huang, and a person whom US agencies accuse of spying for Beijing, according to the New York Times and the Financial Times. These are allegations. Nvidia says its CEO “fully supports the review,” and the board says it has no reason to believe secrets leaked, according to CBS News. Beijing calls it a “so-called Chinese spy narrative,” reports CNBC.
The stock fell 4.27% on Monday, November 9. No source links the affair to graphics card prices.
