Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5070, the first budget-friendly Blackwell GPU, is finally here! Boasting a tempting $549.99 MSRP, it's the most affordable 50-series card yet. Following the RTX 5080 and 5090 (January release) and the RTX 5070 Ti (February), this is Nvidia's fourth 50-series launch. While the Founder's Edition arrives later this month, third-party cards should be available now.

Unfortunately, Nvidia's RTX 50-series has faced persistent inventory issues, and this launch might be no different. Retailers warn of shortages, and previous launches were plagued by bots snapping up GPUs for inflated resale. If you find one in stock, don't hesitate!

TLDR: This article assumes, but doesn't guarantee, RTX 5070 availability. Be prepared for potential sellouts.

We Reviewed the RTX 5070 GPU

Announced at CES 2025, the RTX 50-series emphasizes AI features over raw rasterization performance. DLSS 4 aims to quadruple frame rates with minimal visual loss. While offering a modest performance boost, its value compared to the RTX 40-series is debated.

In our review, Jackie Thomas stated that the RTX 5070 performs as advertised at 1440p high frame rates, but doesn't necessarily outperform the RTX 4070 Super or other cards in its price range. Multi-Frame Generation is a plus for high-refresh-rate monitors, but may not justify an upgrade for all.
