News on March 14,NVIDIA's RTX50 series of graphics cards have been facing serious shortages since their release, especially the high-end models RTX5080 and RTX5090.This tight supply situation not only caused graphics card prices to be significantly higher than the official suggested retail price (MSRP), but also spawned a series of "innovative" sales strategies.

Recently, a campaign in India called "EliteHubsxCOLORFULRTX5080Campaign" has attracted widespread attention.

The campaign, launched by an Indian computer accessories store and e-sports event organizer called EliteHubs, claims that three "lucky winners" will each receive a piece of the brand new Colorful RTX 5080 UltraOC - one piece each.

This event is not as "generous" as advertised, because participants do not receive free graphics cards, but have the opportunity to purchase graphics cards at the official recommended retail price - 110,000 rupees (approximately 9,160 yuan).

Due to the insufficient supply of RTX50 series graphics cards, it is difficult for consumers to purchase graphics cards at original prices, and even high-priced packages bundled with other accessories have been sold out at some retailers.

In addition to insufficient supply, this series of graphics cards has also been exposed to problems such as overheating, connector failure, and black screens.
