In the six months since the release of GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, the graphics card has proven exceedingly difficult to find at MSRP. While this problem isn’t unique to the SKU, it has proven especially longstanding in this instance. Thankfully, recent price reductions indicate the worst could be behind us as the cost of the pixel pusher falls to more reasonable levels.
GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
A great option for QHD and 4K gaming, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti offers ample gaming performance that DLSS 4 pushes further. Read our review.
On Amazon US, I’ve spotted two GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics cards that have fallen to $750, namely Asus Prime and Gigabyte Windforce. Regardless of which model you choose, you’ll be paying the lowest price either pixel pusher has been available for from the storefront.
Both models follow Nvidia’s reference specifications for GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, so choosing between either is a question of aesthetic preferences. Asus and Gigabyte each outfit their respective coolers with three fans, and each qualify as SFF (Small Form Factor) which will make it easy to fit them into just about any case.
So, what can you expect from GeForce RTX 5070 Ti more broadly? In terms of gaming, you won’t find a graphics card better at ray tracing within this price range, delivering welcome gains over Radeon RX 9070 XT and mirroring GeForce RTX 4080 Super.
There are some instances where GeForce RTX 5070 Ti will also pull ahead in rasterised games, like Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail (as shown above). However, the card is more comparable than superior to competitors in this regard more generally.
These frame rates are reflective of GeForce RTX 5070 Ti without the assistance of DLSS 4. Whack on Super Resolution and/or Frame Generation, and you can expect performance to drastically increase.
Such performance enhancers make the jump to 4K all the easier. With 16GB of VRAM at the card’s disposal, you can happily game at UHD without fear of memory leaks.
For more professional workloads, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is an excellent choice for local deep learning tasks. It’s also great for 3D rendering applications such as Blender.
Just bear in mind you will need a power supply with 750W of capacity, per Nvidia’s requirements. The majority of GeForce RTX 5070 Ti models, the ones listed above included, use the 12V-2×6 power connector but will come with adaptors should you need them.
Finally, the last thing you must have to get in on this deal is a Prime membership. Amazon has locked these discounts behind its subscription service, likely in a bit to combat bots. This behaviour is nothing new from the store, but you don’t want to be caught scrambling for your login before stock runs out.
