GeForce RTX 5090 Signed by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Goes to Auction
A unique piece of hardware has surfaced on the secondhand market: a GeForce RTX 5090 bearing the personal signature of NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang. The card, which could fetch up to $15,000 at auction, was discovered by a buyer during a routine search for hardware.
The discovery was made by a 3D artist who, according to an interview with WCCFTech, was searching for a pair of GeForce RTX 5090 units for a professional project. After purchasing an unopened box, the artist initially assumed the signature on the card was from an ASUS executive. However, upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be the autograph of the NVIDIA leader.
The component in question is an ASUS ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 White OC Edition. This specific model was signed by Jensen Huang during Gamescom 2025 to commemorate ASUS's 30th anniversary in the graphics card business. Visual comparisons with official footage confirm that the signature on the auction item is a direct match to the one seen on the CEO's signed cards.
The auction listing is currently in preview mode, with estimates suggesting a final sale price between $10,000 and $15,000. This premium is driven not only by the signature but also by the current market scarcity and high retail prices for the RTX 5090 series. For context, current retail pricing for other models includes:
- ASUS ROG Astral OC Edition (non-white) on Newegg — $6,899.99;
- ASUS ROG Astral OC Edition (white) — $8,998;
- A Gigabyte model at Best Buy — $7,669.99;
- ASUS TUF on Amazon — $6,699.
Given the high demand and limited availability of flagship GPUs, the collector's value of this signed ASUS model could potentially push the final auction price beyond the initial $15,000 estimate.
