Following in the wake of more-powerful siblings, Gigabyte has just made a more affordable card with its fancy Infinity design, but this time based on Nvidia’s mid-range GeForce RTX 5070 GPU. Although the graphics card will share the same aesthetics as other members of the series, the size of its cooler is much smaller this time.
Gigabyte recently published the Aorus GeForce RTX 5070 Infinity product page, providing some insight into the cooler’s specifications, as well as the GPU overclock. On the latter front, the GPU will have a 2,715MHz boost frequency, making for a 203MHz increase over stock clocks. That’s a decent extra helping of hertz, although it’s not likely to be game-changing when it comes to frame rates.
Outside of this change, though, the underlying RTX 5070 naturally remains unchanged. The GPU205 die at its heart provides 6,144 CUDA cores, 192 Tensor cores, and 48 RT cores, alongside 12GB of GDDR7 VRAM riding on a 192-bit bus. That’s not forgetting full support for the Nvidia DLSS 4.5 suite of performance enhancements.
The Infinity cooler itself is smaller in every respect relative to the RTX 5090 version, measuring 309x132x55mm (LxWxH). That’s still far larger than the GeForce RTX 5070 Founders Edition, which measures at a dainty 242x112x40mm. Suffice to say, this case demands a decent amount of case space.
That slimming down thankfully hasn’t come at the expense of key features that make the Aorus Infinity cooler so attractive. This includes Gigabyte’s Windforce Hyperburst Cooling System, complete with the company’s trademark Hawk fans, composite metal thermal grease, superconducting heatpipes, and a vapour chamber. I’d expect nothing less than excellent thermal performance from this graphics card.
Aesthetically, the Aorus Infinity is a real beauty too, and it’s easy to see why Gigabyte decided to launch this design in celebration of its 40th anniversary. The firm took inspiration from twin jet engines in crafting its ‘twin-fan nacelle aesthetic’, giving the graphics card its distinctive look. I appreciate the tastefulness of the RGB halo effect too, which is just crying out for a vertical mount. There’s also a hidden 16-pin power connector to stave off any untidy cables that would spoil its appearance.
We don’t yet know the Aorus GeForce RTX 5070 Infinity price, but expect the model to cost a pretty penny compared to a standard RTX 5070. For more graphics card chat, check out our best GPU guide for our latest purchase recommendations.
