On October 2, 2026, Micro Center, a well-known retailer in the US, implemented a new policy. It required customers who intended to purchase RTX 5090 graphics cards to sign a 'Declaration for Purchasers of Advanced Computing Products'. Without signing this declaration, the purchase transaction would not proceed. This declaration obliges the purchaser to provide detailed personal information, including name, address, identification documents, phone number, and email. In cases where the end - user is not the same as the purchaser, additional information about the actual user, the installation location of the graphics card, and the purpose of its use must also be clearly stated. Moreover, the declaration explicitly and unequivocally forbids any form of export of the purchased RTX 5090 graphics cards, leaving no room for exceptions. This move reflects the retailer's strict control over the distribution and usage of these high - end computing products, likely due to concerns such as preventing grey - market resale and ensuring compliance with relevant regulations.
