> Two pallets of ZOTAC GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards worth $470,000 have gone missing at São Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport.

Two pallets of **ZOTAC** GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards have disappeared at **São Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport** in Brazil. Hardware distributor **Oderço** reported the missing shipment, which is valued at approximately R$2.5 million or $470,000 USD.

Oderço president **Oderço Matos** released a video on October 16 stating the company has received no explanation for the loss. Matos questioned the lack of security footage, noting the firm has imported hardware since 2008 and has operated for 38 years.

The missing GPUs represent a significant loss, as individual cards retail for up to R$39,000 in Brazil. While **NVIDIA** confirmed the RTX 5090 is not discontinued, supply constraints remain as federal police and airport operators have yet to issue comments.
